Look: Paolo Ballesteros as Miss Colombia

He’s done everyone worth doing, and on Saturday actor and host Paolo Ballesteros again used his makeup skills to transform himself into a “celebrity”: Miss Colombia Ariadna Gutierrez.

Gutierrez, as we all know, had the misfortune of being announced the winner of the Miss Universe beauty pageant, only to learn a few minutes later that the pageant host, Steve Harvey, had made a mistake.

(For readers who have been living under a rock, the actual winner was Miss Philippines Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach.)

What was a positive and friendly gesture, however, quickly turned into a vehicle for Internet trolls who used it as an opportunity to bash the Miss Universe first runner-up, her country and fellow Latinos.

Can we all just live in peace?
