HE was mocked mercilessly for announcing the wrong winner at the 2015 Miss Universe pageant.

Now Steve Harvey has weighed into last night’s Oscars bungle, which saw La La Land erroneously declared the winner of the night’s greatest prize, Best Picture, by veteran actors Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway.

“Good morning everybody! Went to sleep early last night. So ... what I miss? #Oscars,” Harvey joked on Twitter.

The TV host followed up with another tweet promising to discuss the Oscars snafu later on Monday.

Good morning everybody! Went to sleep early last night. So... what I miss? #Oscars

Accounting firm Pricewaterhouse Cooper later took responsibility for last night’s embarrassing Oscars blunder, with Moonlight ultimately clinching the Best Picture award.

Harvey was dragged into the debacle when Oscars host Jimmy Kimmel went into damage control to salvage the show.

“This is very unfortunate what happened. Personally I blame Steve Harvey for this — I would like to see you get an Oscar anyway. Why can’t we just give a whole bunch of them,” Kimmel joked to a stunned audience.
