After watching several past Ms. Universes, I believe that the tradition is to say : “THE RUNNER-UP IS ...” and then announced the name.

Steve apparently mistook the name on the card for the winner.

He was not informed.

Yes, I remember that-—haven’t watched on in years.

He goofed. Sometimes life calls for a response of grace. This is one of those times. Grace to Steve. Grace to the winner. Grace to the runner-up. But do not water down the title for the winner by making the runner-up a co-winner.
