Miss Universe 2020-21 Winners Announced Live

The 2020 Miss Universe Competition airs live from Hollywood, Florida tonight, on May 16, 2021. In recent years, the show aired on the Fox network, but this year’s event airs on the FYI network. For those confused about the 2020 pageant being held in 2021, the pageant had been postponed due to COVID.

Last year’s winner of Miss Universe was Zozibini Tunzi of South Africa and tonight, she will relinquish her crown.

Since 2015, Steve Harvey has hosted the Miss Universe competition, but this year, he will not be participating in the event. Mario Lopez and Olivia Culpo are the new hosts. And, the night’s big performer will be singer Luis Fonsi.
