This seems like a response to Harvey's apology which he posted on his Twitter page yesterday.

His tweet read 'i'd like to apologize to wholeheartedly to Miss Columbia & Miss Philippines for my huge mistake. I feel terrible.'

This was as a result of initially announcing Columbia's Ariadna Gutierrez-Arevalo as the winner of Miss Universe 2015 instead of Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach of Philippines. But Steve immediately recognized his mistake and announced the right winner of the crown - Miss Philippines.

This generated a lot of reactions from various quarters and Justin Bieber had to tweet his hit song video at Steve.

'Sorry' is a song released by the Canadian pop star on October 23, 2015 talks about Justin apologizing for his actions and all that he has done. Even though the 'Sorry' is a dancehall and tropical house song, it didn't fail to pass across the message.

The song however, topped a number of charts worldwide including US Billboard Hot 100, UK singles Charts, Canada Hot 100 and Australia Chart. The Video for the song has over 10 million views on YouTube and Millions of downloads.

Although it looked appropriate for Justin to tweet 'Sorry' Video to the veteran Television host earlier today, it is not clear if it was a sincere sympathy from Bieber to Harvey, another way to promote his video or simply 'banter'.

Nevertheless, Steve had apologized for his error which he called 'honest human mistake' and a lot of people have shown solidarity for him. Hashtags like '#IStandWithSteve,#SteveHarvey' are used on Twitter and other social networking sites to show support.

Steve Harvey and Miss Universe trended worldwide but this did not stop negative comments and racial remarks from people.
