'Australia's Next Top Model' Names Wrong Winner

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PKb0BR-giCA

Acting on a tip from down under, Gawker TV has brought us one of the most awkward moments of live television we've ever seen: the host of 'Australia's Next Top Model' naming the wrong winner on live air.

After a very close audience vote, host Sarah Murdoch (daughter-in-law of mogul Rupert Murdoch), crowned Kelsey Martinovich as 'Australia's Next Top Model.' Her family, fans and friends went nuts and Martinovich began to thank everyone who helped her.

That's when things got weird. Murdoch started holding her ear-bud and saying, "I'm so sorry, oh my god, I don't know what to say." The crowd sat in long stunned silence, not knowing what she was talking about.

A defeated Murdoch then stammered the real winner's name: Amanda Ware. Awkward! You have to see it to believe it. But beware, it's so cringe-worthy it'll have your stomach doing back flips.

For winning, Ware receives an eight-page spread in Harpers Bazaar, a modeling contract with an agency, a $25,000 Levi's campaign, a $20,000 cash prize, a Ford Fiesta Zetec and a trip to New York. For handling the blunder and disappointment so well, the network Foxtel is giving Martinovich a $25,000 prize, which we imagine will ease her epic humiliation just fine.

I think she can forget about radio and TV announcing as a career.

I wonder how she announced the wrong winner. Was she give the wrong information or just read the results wrong?
