i have to ask what were you and the other judges thinking when you heard the name miss colombia called? >> my first thought was, wow,w, this is rigged because i knew how i voted and i knew how all the other judges voted. all of us voted for philippines to win so we were in shock and then when wee fnd out that there was a mistake, i was like, this is brilliant. they didid this on purpose for publicity. i mean that's how my mind works. >> well, you're not alone in that. but let me k you, you were there, what do you think went wrong on that stage? >> well, you know, since the pageant there have been reports that steve missed part of rearsals, that he was out gambling and drinking and having a good time. he made a mistake but he also could have been tired and hung over. you know, he just didn't do his job well. period. >> i mean, but we've heard there's a tele3r0789er tt you could see the names in the teleprompter.

i've been a judge andnd i i've been the host of miss america and i know it's live tv. it is happening, it's very fluid. bu did you see anything that could have gone wrong that made this happen? >> well, there is a prompter, but the moment where he crowns the winner isn't on the prompter because that moment, they don't want the other girls to know, so it was just on his card and he read it incorrectly. >> right. well, as i said, though, i mn just to say for steve that is a live television event that is happening, it't's very very fluid. did you get a chance, perez, to talk to steve afterwards? no, he disappeared as soon as everything went dn and it was crazy for us in the theater after the broadcast ended because people were booing and screaming and emmitt smith came up to m me saying somebody was shot outside the theater. we didn't have all the

had happened on the strip, so it was pandemonium inside. >> yeah, i would imagine so. i'm sure the fans were very confused as were the contestant what do you think of the idea of joint crown, sharing it? >> y know, i actually think that miss philippines whom we all voted for deserves to win, won, but losing is the best thg that ever happened to colombia, so in one sense she truly is the winner, although, as a judge and i'm looking at everything that happened, i see her posting on instagram that she's the true winner, there's a reason, many reasons she didn't win, congratulations to philippines. >> wow, perez hilton, there you go. i guess in some ways everyonone is a winner. >> speaks his mind. >> he sure does. >> keeping it real on tuesday morning. >> perez, we thank you. >> coming up heree'll talk to the u. marshal leading the manhunt for the most wanted teen in america for ethan couch and

want to eat it so badly i try to put the frosting on it right away and it makes a mess. >> don't do that. you need to chill your cake before you even put the icing on. i hike to throw it in the freezer for like 30 minutes just to get it nice and solid then i get my ici on and goes on very smooly and then i'm just going to cover it with fongadant and cut ribbons ung a pastry cutter o pizza wheel at home then you'll attach your ribbons ontohe fondant covered cake and made marbleized stars with this and rolled it out into a sheet and have the stars and ready to go on the cake and used a little crisco and paint the back of the stars and we just pop it on the cake and it'll stick right to the fondant. i think your family would love that for christmas. >> normally george and lara, we can't get their attention at all. some reason for this segment
