The pose and the walk of Miss Philipines is one of the best in Miss UNiverse History! I means, look at that!, Shes like very professional indeed. classy,elegant,beauty,confidence, WOW 8D!
I remember watching this!!! My fave was Philippines for the crown until final Q. It was Philippines 1st, Spain 2nd and Botswana 3rd. Then, Botswana aced the interview. I was so proud and happy for Miriam that night. And was hopeful she won. That answer by Mpule truly deserved the crown. Said it like it is!!! Mpule may not be the prettiest of the lot but if you guys have met her in real life and spoken to her, you would understand why she deserved and won that CROWN!! She is an amazing woman!
Your honesty is very much appreciated. Everyone is always obsessed with Miss Philippines. She isn’t/wasn’t the prettiest of the lot either. I watched this pageant too when it aired. I agree, Miss Botswana deserved to win. She was the complete package. I’m a former pageant girl and I’ve watched these pageants for years. Folks always assume it’s just about how someone looks or their walk when the interview sessions are generally the most determining factor. All the women are beautiful in varying degrees, but it’s not JUST about looks, an assumption too many make. Most always it’s the candidate whose not only beautiful but who is also intelligent, articulate, and who has a great personality. The audience loved her personality. The winner will need to be able to communicate well far more often as Miss Universe than how she looks in a swimsuit or if she has a model walk. She always also needs to be likeable. The winner is usually the candidate who did all of these things well, the complete package. On this night, that was the deserving Miss Botswana. I’ve since heard really great things about her. She deserved that win. I’m pleased to read your response and to see that you noticed that too. The Philippines is a country that seems to be OBSESSED with pageants so in that regard arguably they may very well be quite jaded when it comes to their candidates. That hasn’t changed much even today.
Miss Botsawana is comfortable at being candid... She was only 18 when she joined this pageant, though at a very young age she expressed her thoughts very inteligently thus gave her enough aces to win the crown. Miss Philippines on the other hand looked very classy and well poised... almost fragile in a way... very elegant. Can't help but to appreciate Miss Spain aswell... Very pretty and demure. I love the top 3 here. love Miss South Africa too and Miss India.
Best top 10 ever in Miss Universe even up until today in 2022. It was such an honest top 10 and also a recognition of diversity. You picked the best of the best this year. No sash factor involved.
If I were a judge, Spain: 9.492 Mexico: 9.218 Jamaica: 8.537 Puerto Rico: 9.388 Philippines: 9.594 Ghana: 8.386 Botswana: 9.413 South Africa: 9.532 India: 9.506 Venezuela: 9.413
MY GOODNESS! I REMEMBER DURING THIS TIME MIRIAM QUIAMBAO JOINED THE TOP 10, TOP 5 AND ALMOST GOT IT ! IT WAS LIKE MANNY PACQUIAO WAS FIGHTING AND EVERYONE IN THE PHIL PUT A HALT ON WHAt they are doing took focus on the pageant! IT WAS REALLY ROARING ON ALL THE NEIGHTBORHOOD! SO EXCITING MOMENT!
Where the hell is Miss Ghana gonna go and catch a fish? Miss Philippines is the best of all the Miss Universe contenders until now... No one can beat her cat walk and amazing poise...
hahaha i remember everything from this competition. i woke up so early just to watch the Live Via Satellite coverage. JULIO EGLESIAS? thats the only thing i forgot! hahahaha
this was when MU gave the crown to the girl with the best gown now they might as well not have the final question coz the girl who wins now never answer the question...
Miriam certainly delivered the goods in the evening gown rounds. She's the only contestant in that round that failed to get a score below 9.00. Her Halston gown is really nice though it was modified with the addition of the beadworks which even made it better.
@Max75Phil1672 Actually, Miriam Quiambao went to Venezuela few months before the Miss Universe pageant to train. So I guess that partially explains why they have similar projection.
Miriam was diligent in attending PD classes that was why she was able to get that far. The recent Mses. Philippines were too lazy to attend so they weren't able to flaunt themselves that well
🎤 So I...can't ....sing, thats why I am......whispering, so i can get all.......girls .......to come around by meeeee. Yes i......can't.....sing, thats why I am......whispering , so i can attract all......the ......girls ...to come around by meeeeeeee🎶🎵🎶🎵🎵🎶🎶🎶
I guess the judges were after good silhouette (this explains Miriam's akimbo) and elegant walk (unlike Miss Jamaica's dance-like walk). That's what Miriam learnt from Venezuela (good passerella) and what our bets for this year should study.
it was the swimsuit which killed her chance of further advancing. hey Tommy Hilfiger gown though ok was not enough since she was able to compensate for her low Swimsuite score as oppose to both Philippines and Spain scoring really high after a dismal interview round.
lintek rumampa ang miriam at mgpopose!!! nilamon ng aura nya ang nip & tuck ladies lol khit yung mas magaganda at mas matatangkad etc...ganda ng packaging nya. guru tlaga c ka osmel!
its bacause that kind of question is very hard to answer in our country... its bcoz our country is a catholic nation... that kind of answer varies differently...therefore its like giving opinion that no opinion is wrong....if u live here in the philippiens ull know wat i mean
How come my statement is biased? It's just my own and personal opinion, I adore her because of the effort and poise she showed representing the country. And Im not into that runner ups, whether she got the cut or not but still its my own opinion to her.
España: Espectacular Mexico: sencillo pero elegante Jamaica: sexy Puerto Rico: Una erección WOW Filipinas: WOW WOW WOW Ghana: muy oscar Botswana: y la quinceañera donde es? Sudafrica: se robo la cortina del hotel India: Espectacular WOW Venezuela: ejemplo de como un buen vestido y la seguridad la hacen ver espectacular aunque tenga cara de arrepentimiento
Listen, racist she along with Philippines lost. how do you know that she didn't finish her answer? Botswana won!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
scores go back to 0 after elimination. botswana aced the final question so she won. i remember watching this pageant. hopes shattered when miriam failed to deliver a good answer - interview was her achilles heel.
It's a Venus cut actually. That cut was the trend the following year when MU was held in Cyprus. Even Lara Dutta wore the same cut. And many imitated her legendary and iconic posed the following year.
wish u luck...many contestants are beautifulll almost all of them.. i mean all coz they wont b there if they arent.. anyway... we have a beautifull representative again here in the philippines but we are not looking forward for usto win.. miss u is has no reputation anymore...they are basing on political relationship
wao Venezuela altísima en puntaje a pesar del que vestido a mí no me gusta mucho, pero ella tiene mucha personalidad. La mas hermosa en traje de baño fue sin dudas Phillipines quien debió ser Miss Universe 1999, tambien estuvo bellísima Spain y tercero Venezuela. Las demás overrated. El estilo con los escorts y el cantante estuvo muy bueno, cosas que no se ven hoy en día en este concurso que cada año decae mas.
well...i think philippines is most beautiful in this contest...u know why? coz other candidate look like a man and other look like a maid...philippines looks like me thats why she's most beautiful in this contest...
Miss India 1999 se parece muchisimo a Miss India/MU 1994. En los dos desfiles, desfiló identico a como lo hizó MU 1994. El traje de Gala muy parecido también. ¿Pensaria que con eso iba a ganar?. La verdad, hubiese quedado más contento con ella de MU que con Bostwana. Miss PR también se parece harto a Miss PR/MU 1993: Dayanara Torres. Se parecen harto, solo que MU 1993 tenía el cuerpo más embolatado que Miss PR 1999. Y aún asi fue MU. Ese concurso es un FRAUDE. Lo único justo fue MU 1996.
Hey I think Ms Philippines is the best in evening gown. But I think Ms India is the prettiest. :) My scores: Spain - 8.55 Mexico - 8.80 Jamaica - 8.50 Puerto Rico - 8.20 Philippines - 9.50 Ghana - 7.80 Botswana - 8.40 South Africa - 8.00 India - 9.00 Venezuela - 9.2
Ah si!. Y que consiguio?. Lo único que consiguio fue ser una de las MU más feas de toda la historia. La decada de los 90`s tuvo la particularidad de haber elegido a la mejor MU de toda la historia (Alicia Machado) y al mismo tiempo a algunas de las peores (MU 1995, MU 1997, MU 1998 y MU 1999).

julio iglesias jr... half-spanish half-filipino
top 2 in the evening gown:
1.Spain
2.Philippines
Miss Philippines had the best figure among them. She posed like the Miss Universe logo. I think she called it the "Barbie doll pose" then.
beautiful miss philippines!
oh my... philippines outstand them all.. so classy girl.. so beautifull... she must be the one who win...
Miss Botsawana is comfortable at being candid... She was only 18 when she joined this pageant, though at a very young age she expressed her thoughts very inteligently thus gave her enough aces to win the crown. Miss Philippines on the other hand looked very classy and well poised... almost fragile in a way... very elegant. Can't help but to appreciate Miss Spain aswell... Very pretty and demure.

miss.philippines make a good job...cat walk...gorgeous and confident...
Best top 10 ever in Miss Universe even up until today in 2022. It was such an honest top 10 and also a recognition of diversity. You picked the best of the best this year. No sash factor involved.
I love Miss Jamaica's gown :)
If I were a judge,
Spain: 9.492
Mexico: 9.218
Jamaica: 8.537

last 2007 nkuha p ang 7th miss photogenic award ng philippines
Miss philippines bes i projection,, for she is best in long gown
Filipino candidates should learn a lot from Miriam Quiambao's elegant and confident cat walk.
MISS SPAIN DIANA NOGUEIRA ROYAL MISS UNIVERSE 1999!!!!!
Where the hell is Miss Ghana gonna go and catch a fish? Miss Philippines is the best of all the Miss Universe contenders until now... No one can beat her cat walk and amazing poise...
Are they speaking in German? I listened to that song at night.It takes my stress away for doctors appointments and ISP meetings.Starting in 2009
Mexico very beautifull
hahaha i remember everything from this competition. i woke up so early just to watch the Live Via Satellite coverage. JULIO EGLESIAS? thats the only thing i forgot! hahahaha
its julio iglesias jr. singing "0ne more chance"
Miriam shows the striking phose and elegant style in walking that put her in the top 3.
this was when MU gave the crown to the girl with the best gown now they might as well not have the final question coz the girl who wins now never answer the question...
look up philippines your soo butiful
iba ang tindigan ng pinay oh! galing

miss PHILIPPINES.. wow! very elegant..
his mother is Isabel Preysler-Iglesias, a model from the Philippines
Philippines is a clear winner in this pageant.
Miriam was diligent in attending PD classes that was why she was able to get that far. The recent Mses. Philippines were too lazy to attend so they weren't able to flaunt themselves that well
ha... come to think of it, in far angles they resemble each other...
Philippines, México AND Spain were the best
reina definitivamente mexico, segundo lugar puerto rico y tecero españa.
🎤 So I...can't ....sing, thats why I am......whispering, so i can get all.......girls .......to come around by meeeee.
Yes i......can't.....sing, thats why I am......whispering , so i can attract all......the ......girls ...to come around by meeeeeeee🎶🎵🎶🎵🎵🎶🎶🎶
I AGREE TO EVERY WORD YOU SAY!
"One more chance" by Julio Iglesias Jr.
this was a bit funny I remember saying "WHAT WAS HOLYFIELD DOING THERE??" hahaha
@redmackyboy
I don't think so. Did you remove the highest and the lowest scores before you computed for the average?
I guess the judges were after good silhouette (this explains Miriam's akimbo) and elegant walk (unlike Miss Jamaica's dance-like walk). That's what Miriam learnt from Venezuela (good passerella) and what our bets for this year should study.
Spain!
if i'm not mistaken, miriam quiambao (s philippines) was sent to venezuela for a crash coourse training prior to competing in MU
@PityOak Yup the blocking is so perfect!
it was the swimsuit which killed her chance of further advancing. hey Tommy Hilfiger gown though ok was not enough since she was able to compensate for her low Swimsuite score as oppose to both Philippines and Spain scoring really high after a dismal interview round.
hey if u dont mind..just woud lyk to ask wats the titile of the song and who sang it?..its really nice :)
She made top 15 :)
@MissNatsukiKuga I think she should have gone with a red, silver, or white gown. The dark teal color is unexciting.
yup
philippines❤️❤️
lintek rumampa ang miriam at mgpopose!!! nilamon ng aura nya ang nip & tuck ladies lol khit yung mas magaganda at mas matatangkad etc...ganda ng packaging nya. guru tlaga c ka osmel!
MISS VENEZUELA!!
Julio Iglesias Jr. - One More Chance
Where is Jack Wagner today I love the way he hosted the Miss Universe.
Mexico
its bacause that kind of question is very hard to answer in our country... its bcoz our country is a catholic nation... that kind of answer varies differently...therefore its like giving opinion that no opinion is wrong....if u live here in the philippiens ull know wat i mean

España: Espectacular
Mexico: sencillo pero elegante

Ghana: muy oscar
Botswana: y la quinceañera donde es?
Sudafrica: se robo la cortina del hotel
India: Espectacular WOW
Venezuela: ejemplo de como un buen vestido y la seguridad la hacen ver espectacular aunque tenga cara de arrepentimiento
I have nothing against the black girls (in fact I root for a lot) but I think Botswana pales in comparison really
yes. the straps can be adjusted another way.
who's the cute singer? ...love him!
what is your problem dear? ooz we are beautiful all over the world..im proud to be filipina..beautiful and elegant..
1/2
gosh 1 of the judges pla c marcus schenkenberg d2..crush q un..he's a model..ang taas ng score ni miriam s knya ah..
If Ms Espana finished her answer im certain she will win instead of Ms Botswana
Listen, racist she along with Philippines lost. how do you know that she didn't finish her answer? Botswana won!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
scores go back to 0 after elimination. botswana aced the final question so she won. i remember watching this pageant. hopes shattered when miriam failed to deliver a good answer - interview was her achilles heel.
Is her Halston gown really asymmetrical? Just curious. I saw her in that very same gown when she posed for the Mabuhay cover, but it's symmetrical.
It's a Venus cut actually. That cut was the trend the following year when MU was held in Cyprus. Even Lara Dutta wore the same cut. And many imitated her legendary and iconic posed the following year.
what happen with miss phillipines? she was the winner on this miss universe
Para syang sumasayaw sa kanta ni Julio Iglesias, Jr. Hehehe. c",)
Julio Iglesias Jr.
Really u dont have any sense dear....did u see her final answer.....she is really a beauty wid brains....

Miss Venezuela looks like Miss Philippines 2010
wish u luck...many contestants are beautifulll almost all of them.. i mean all coz they wont b there if they arent.. anyway... we have a beautifull representative again here in the philippines but we are not looking forward for usto win.. miss u is has no reputation anymore...they are basing on political relationship
i do apologize for that, i didn't mean it...
miriam quiambao rocks.....
miriam fell during the preliminaries...
wao Venezuela altísima en puntaje a pesar del que vestido a mí no me gusta mucho, pero ella tiene mucha personalidad.
La mas hermosa en traje de baño fue sin dudas Phillipines quien debió ser Miss Universe 1999, tambien estuvo bellísima Spain y tercero Venezuela. Las demás overrated.
El estilo con los escorts y el cantante estuvo muy bueno, cosas que no se ven hoy en día en este concurso que cada año decae mas.
isnt that singer enrique iglesias?
yeh he is half filipino half spanish
well...i think philippines is most beautiful in this contest...u know why? coz other candidate look like a man and other look like a maid...philippines looks like me thats why she's most beautiful in this contest...
Este año el jurado esta virolo... las que debieron integrar el cuadro. fueron Venezuela India y Philippines, cualquiera de las 3 denia ganar

Botswana is Kefa..........Kefanget

Miss India 1999 se parece muchisimo a Miss India/MU 1994. En los dos desfiles, desfiló identico a como lo hizó MU 1994. El traje de Gala muy parecido también. ¿Pensaria que con eso iba a ganar?.

Ese Miss Universo era de Phillipinas
ugliest in fact the worst decision made by the judges in the history of MU..no poise at all..scary facial expression
Hey I think Ms Philippines is the best in evening gown. But I think Ms India is the prettiest. :)
My scores:
Spain - 8.55
Mexico - 8.80
Jamaica - 8.50
Puerto Rico - 8.20
Philippines - 9.50
Ghana - 7.80
Botswana - 8.40
South Africa - 8.00
India - 9.00
Venezuela - 9.2
no the horse face botswana win..miss philippines was first runner up
no sadly she doesnt.... nobody knows why she lost
la mexicana es linda pero le falto nose algo creo que su vestido no le ayuda muchoa mi parecer
you are absolutely right..nothing against her but shes not pretty at all..the way she moves..so primitive
Ese era el año de Filipinas o como en año 2010, no como los 2 últimos (Pia & Catriona) un par de mocos que ganaron.
i wished they would of picked someone else to sing rather than julio iglesias jr. and philippines rules!
noooooo
I think Botswana won as a result of give-her-a-chance
Ah si!. Y que consiguio?. Lo único que consiguio fue ser una de las MU más feas de toda la historia. La decada de los 90`s tuvo la particularidad de haber elegido a la mejor MU de toda la historia (Alicia Machado) y al mismo tiempo a algunas de las peores (MU 1995, MU 1997, MU 1998 y MU 1999).
Literal, tenes razón.
dpat c mirriam nlng president hndi c stella hehehe...
Todas bellas...no me gustan las de Ghana Jamaica
