Miriam is the PERFECT image of a Filipina beauty. with all due respect to Pia, i still think that no one has exceeded her yet among the Filipina candidates that followed after her.
Sobrang ganda ni Miriam dito. Filipinang filipina ang beauty. Obviously favorite sya ng judges. Although she didn't win, she performed so well which the Philippines hasn't seen in a very long time.
She was a clear standout here. Oriental Bombshell. Fierce, Competitive and definitely elegant! She has been the prototype of Miss Universe Philippines! The best of all the representatives we have up to date.
Her answer failed her..Miss Botwana"s answer is the best..You can't continue your reign at all when you R pregnant instead you hv to enjoy your feminity..But yes she is sooo pretty and very regal..
Miriam is the epitome of the beautiful Filipina..gracefully elegant, exquisite, Pan Asian lovely, and naturally confident yet demure and charming, there is something about her that is missing among our current crop of queens!..its called Au naturelle, you can see and feel it in her bearing..she is genuine! 👍🤩🇵🇭❤
JANINE was styled exactly like MIRIAM and so was PIA wutzbach, who liked both Miriam AND janine as her model candidate. The three had the same make up styling, which is very POLYNESIAN.
Mirriam and Janine are look-a-like. And they had the same fate. Nonetheless, they still were our winners. ! The universe undeniably knew that! So proud of you our Queens! Jan 18, 2020- who's with me??
The best Miss Universe we've never had! her performances during the Evening gown and Swimsuit round were unforgettable. And after many years, she remains true to her answer during the top 5 question and answer round....despite falling down many times in her life, she continues to stand up and remain strong.
Yes! I agree! This gown for me is the best PH MU delegate gown. I like Cat's gown too, but there is something in this gown that is very classy and elegant.
Marjun Tabs, for several years now, that iconic powder blue Halston gown have always been considered by fashion aficionados as one of the best gowns that ever graced the Ms Universe stage.
@@BlueBlooded4Life I would agree on that. This is the best Evening Gown a PH candidate wore. Second would be Catriona's. As what @H Berry Santi said, this is timeless!
@@BlueBlooded4Life And I would have to also agree that this is one of the best ever in MU history. Some of the best gowns in my opinion are Paulina's silver linear designed gown, Zuleyka's gown is iconic, 2008's Dominican Republic's was amazing, the mirror flowers; these are best as far as I can remember, of course including Miriam's and Cat's gowns.
No worries kasi wala namang bearing ‘yong 2.0 na score na ‘yon ‘coz during their time, the highest and the lowest scores are removed when their average score is computed.
After Miriam's 1st runner-up finish in Miss Universe 1999, it went downhill in the 2000s decade for the Philippines in MU where they had nobody reaching the semifinals. It wasn't until Venus Raj that became the catalyst for Philippines' renaissance in Miss Universe after her fourth runner-up finish in 2010.
That pose in the evening gown round is just everything to me. Up to this day, still gives me the feels watching it. She has one of the the best stance and posture to ever graced the Miss Universe stage. She is like the silhouette of the Miss Universe logo ya'll
Our Miss Philippines Universe 1999 was so inspiring, she set to be a good example for the rest of the women in the world even they fall on or off stage. Her book also was so inspiring ❤
misschalktalk sa venezuela kasi sya na train kaya perfect...after that ayaw na nilang mag train ng iang country kasi nauungusan yung representative nila...;)
for your information MIRIAM is a graduate of a top university. She doesnt need those so called Q and A support for FOREIGNERs with no college degree and can't do impromptu speeches.
@@eduardochavacano Trainings are still crucial no matter how good you are. There is always a room for improvement., particularly in preparing for a tough competition such as this where it is an everybody’s game.
She’s my ultimate favorite Miss Universe Philippines up until now and forever very classy and elegant very Filipina. I know she’s the heavy favorite to win the Miss Universe crown during her time and her charisma is so unforgettable. Nakakapanghinayang lang but very proud of her.
One of the best representative we have,,,I think kaya di nya nasungkit yung title kasi even ok yung sagot nya panay ngiti and nadestruct sya sa audience...kung baga hindi tuloy tuloy.
It is all about the delivery, content and message of the answer is there.during that time the highest factor is the way of delivery, the confidence..if she didnt choke she should have won the crown
When she was in university, she stood up to her professor who insisted that 'ma'am' was spelled without an apostrophe. Miriam argued that it was indeed spelled with an apostrophe. This was the incident Jack Wagner was referring to during the interview.
.The Philippines won four international beauty titles this year [2013] which no other country for that matter had achieved so far, namely: Miss World, Miss Supranational, Miss International and lastly Miss Tourism International. This spectacular achievement sets a new benchmark in beauty contest records. A herculean challenge for others to replicate, duplicate or imitate; to outdo, outshine or overshadow. The Philippines has etched its name and levitated itself in the hallmark of beauty pageants; whether or not these are prestigious, popular, minor or whatever... It is bound by destiny to rewrite history and shatter world records in the annals of beauty pageants. A magnificent milestone in the realm of beauty. This outstanding accomplishment is A BITTER PILL SO HARD TO SWALLOW for those who refuse to accept and acknowledge this stark and glaring reality. Indeed, "Truth is stranger than fiction." I believe, this spectacular feat is written among the stars for a nation blessed by God. No matter how hard you try to forestall the course of destiny, it will always find its way to fulfill its promises, precisely because it was meant to be, according to God's plan. "You can never put good women down." They will succeed no matter what odds come along, simply because they were born achievers and winners. CONGRATULATIONS TO PHILIPPINES!

@rezlielyn agree ako sau dahil sa translator nanalo.. dapat kapag ganitong klaseng pageant ang candidate dapat marunong magenglish.. kaya nga MISS UNIVERSE ang title dapat gumamit ng universal language wich is english, lugi ung mga country n talagang ginagawa ang lahat para maidelever sa english ang lahat ng sagot nila...
For me, being Miss Universe is not just about knowing how to speak a specific language - it is being able to influence and inspire other people. So whatever language you have, as long your heart is to serve and you have a strong mind to show to people, then, you can be Miss Universe.
Sarah Thornhill from Louisiana - 1st runner up Miss Teen USA 1999 Miriam Quiambao from Philippines - 1st runner up Miss Universe 1999 They are same looks. They looks sweet and very beautiful. Thai people love Sarah and Miriam 1999 very much. From Thailand 👧💓
Absolutely the best Ms.Philippines ever sent to compete at Ms.Universe! And that walk? One of the bests in Miss Universe history! The poise, the elegance, and how she waved at the crowd are just pure class.
Watching while staying home, you were so cute Miriam back then, you were so proud telling the universe about your fall 😀😀😀, I really admired you for being so mahinhin 💖💖💖💖💖💖.
When Pia won in 2015 she had the same hairstyle as Miriam. I like to think Pia Wurtzbach won for all the Miss Philippines that SHOULDVE after all those years of being snubbed. And Catriona burnt it into their memories that will make them all never forget the Philippines 🇵🇭
Before Pia and Catriona, we had Miriam Quiambao. For many years, she had been our "torch" at Miss Universe. Of course, our first two queens, pero Miriam was the torch for the next generation of fans
I hope we can send candidates with beauty like of miriam quiambao and janine tugonon.. maxine medina is ok too..oriental beauties!! MiriamQuiambao is my top fave miss universe philippines candidate so far.. then followed by janine then pia...
Naalala ko 'tong pageant na 'to ay napakamakulay saka sobrang buhay na buhay mga contestant pati mga manonood. Adding the fact that it was 1999 so approaching the year of Jubilee 😉 And the most iconic part dto yung tlgang natapilo si Ma'am Miriam grbe sigawan namin sa bahay noon 🤪 feeling namin maliligwak na pambato natin. Well, being 1st runner up is superb na and for us she was the Ms. Universe during her time. Her presence and beauty to the pageant brought Philippines to the top na! Lots of love Ma'am Miriam! ❤️❤️❤️ And kudos!
Watching July 2020. My first time watching Miss Universe pageant was during this time of Miriam Quiambao representing Philippines.. 😅 I'm still a fan of Miriam til now! ❤❤❤
she has the class, the poise and what it takes to be miss universe 1999. the only thing that didnt make her win, because she stuttered when she answered the final question, but her answers were great though. she gave her best.
So regal. She did not do as well as Ms Botswana in the Q&A. But for me, she truly showed the best qualities of a graceful and modest Filipina with quiet strength and dignity. A good role model for the present generation of Filipinas.
Miriam Quiambao is elegance and grace personified. A better answer to her interview question would definitely have clinched her the crown; but it wasn’t meant to be. Nevertheless, she proudLy showed the whole universe how truly beautiful, elegant, graceful, and intelligent Filipino women are. Represent!👍👌😉😉
Only one judge wanted Botswana to win. It was the boxer Holyfield. His scores were outrageously high in all portions. Only one person didn't want Philippines to win. Seymour. Her scores for her were ridiculously low. Philippines answer in Q&A was more real. Botswana's answer was pretentious. Botswana said a reigning Miss MU should not step down if she got pregnant. In the real world, the first runner.up will sue her for getting pregnant and not stepping down and the MUO for Breach of Contract. Philippines was robbed here and that's for sure.
Duh...Miss Botswana!s response is brave since it's impossible for the reigning winner to continue her duty when she's pregnant..She didn't mind at all to express her opinion and that's very impressive enough for the judged
I don’t think it was pretentious. She won because it was the best answer. I love Philippines but Botswana stole hearts that year. Don’t take it away from her.
Jupiter kailan ba naging realistic ang sagot aa miss universe pag sensitive issue dapat play safe ka naman talaga kaya nga womens empowerment yan! gaya ng isyu ng transgender kahit disagree ka kailangan mong sabihin na ok lang gaya sa bb pilipinas puro bash nga inabot ng isang contestant dahil dun sa question about sa third sex cr
It should have been her coz her answer is still substantial its all about her delivery that time. During her time they also took into consideration the confidence in delivering if only she didnt choke and delivered it smoothly it could have been her and that is where Bostwana took the lead. Mpule without batting of an eyelash she delivered her answer smoothly.
Marami ang kumwestyon sa sagot ni miriam sa final q&a noon, na kesyo pangit kesyo ganito kesyo ganyan, pero i believe in reality yun nmn talaga ang gagawin ng sinumang nasa trono, 13years later, ang sagot ni miriam ay pinatunayan ni Olivia Culpo, di ba reigning si olivia at nabuntis sya pero hindi xa, bumaba sa trono tinapos nya ito, kaya ng noong inirampa nito ang mamahaling swimsuit ay di inalis ang telang nakatali sa bandang puson nito dahil medyo mapapansin na ang umbok nito
For me sya ang isa sa best miss philippines kse she won on her own merits walang fans o social media influence unlike nung mga ngayon....
XTNARN agree.. so far sa lahat ng candidates ntn sya ang pnaka gusto ko. hnd rehearsed. nwala na kasi ang interview portion ng miss.universe eh
XTNARN korek
i know this is too late but HELL YES . GANDA NG COMMENT NA TO.
I agree
Look how poise she is, both swimsuit and gown
who's watching this in 2020...21 years after 😊
Wow ksing age ko haha ay oo 1999 pala ako ipinanganak hehe
move on!
Miriam is the PERFECT image of a Filipina beauty. with all due respect to Pia, i still think that no one has exceeded her yet among the Filipina candidates that followed after her.
Jeffrey Vince Ryan Sy Janine Tugonon is very beautiful too, they are both pure Filipina and both first runner up 😂
Pak na pak ka dyan
Si pia tlga ang mukhang Filipiña
@@angelyn6089 titigan niyo ung mukha niya sa Plemilinary Filipinang Pilipina!
Well, there is now.
Sobrang ganda ni Miriam dito. Filipinang filipina ang beauty. Obviously favorite sya ng judges. Although she didn't win, she performed so well which the Philippines hasn't seen in a very long time.
She represents the real pure Filipina Asian Beauty!
She should have won the one of my always favorite from Philippines . Love u from Thailand ❤❤❤
She was a clear standout here. Oriental Bombshell. Fierce, Competitive and definitely elegant! She has been the prototype of Miss Universe Philippines! The best of all the representatives we have up to date.
Enzo Cruz hi enzo Cruz
Catriona is waving 😂
Venezuela was for me the standout.
she was so full of class, grace, poised and elegant. So regal, outspoken and free spirited.
the most regal Miss Philippines delegate to the Miss Universe pageant. definitely the woman who has everything but the crown.
Gregar DEV she should have won!
She deserved it sooooo much
virginal beauty 😋💦
Really? Then she should have won and thus she did not have everything. To keep it short, her reason to her final answer could have been better.
She lost. Oops.
almost 20 years after, i still cant get over this. She should have won!
I don't think so, sweetheart.😛😛😛
Yeah and Janine.
Her answer failed her..Miss Botwana"s answer is the best..You can't continue your reign at all when you R pregnant instead you hv to enjoy your feminity..But yes she is sooo pretty and very regal..
no doubt she killed the competition, but her speaking skills were too vague
Gonna have to disagree bb. Everything else was great, pero the final answer made her stumble. Still fine tho, she was wonderful.
Miriam is the epitome of the beautiful Filipina..gracefully elegant, exquisite, Pan Asian lovely, and naturally confident yet demure and charming, there is something about her that is missing among our current crop of queens!..its called Au naturelle, you can see and feel it in her bearing..she is genuine! 👍🤩🇵🇭❤
I love how Pia was inspired by her and she ended up making justice for her winning the crown ❤️
I love her elegance, grace, poise, femininity. And her walk is so amazing.
Im not even a filipino but she and janine are my favorite candidates from Philippines. Something about them. .i dont know, just very elegant
era.yusnita 14 and Shamcey
Yes, pure Pilipinas..Not Mix..
JANINE was styled exactly like MIRIAM and so was PIA wutzbach, who liked both Miriam AND janine as her model candidate. The three had the same make up styling, which is very POLYNESIAN.
Yes...from Indonesia
Sino niloko mo
Mirriam and Janine are look-a-like. And they had the same fate. Nonetheless, they still were our winners. ! The universe undeniably knew that!
So proud of you our Queens!
Jan 18, 2020- who's with me??
👍👍👍
Same thought friend!

And after many years, she remains true to her answer during the top 5 question and answer round....despite falling down many times in her life, she continues to stand up and remain strong.
Naturally elegant pala talaga si Miriam. Her gown, i can say is Timeless.

Oo. Very elegant. Hindi kagaya ngaun parang kurtina na may pakpak at balahibo pinasusuot!
jUSTICE FOR MISS PHILIPPINES MIRIAM QUIAMBAO! THAT 2.0 IS ABSURD!!!
No worries kasi wala namang bearing ‘yong 2.0 na score na ‘yon ‘coz during their time, the highest and the lowest scores are removed when their average score is computed.
dapat sana pang 5 crowns na ang pinas kay gloria,margie,meriam,janine at pia
true!
unfairness is part of life and we just have to deal with it most of the times.
Kristita Gadugdug totoo parehas tayo
True....Unfair cla
Si Maxine nga nakakapasok pa... even she is not smart
Miriam es una de las concursantes MÁS ELEGANTES que ha existido en Miss Universo.
Pocas mises pueden presumir de tanta elegancia y porte.. Sin dudas la concursante de un MU
Miriam et Gabriela Isler
Very humble and very intelligent! Beauty and brains!
After Miriam's 1st runner-up finish in Miss Universe 1999, it went downhill in the 2000s decade for the Philippines in MU where they had nobody reaching the semifinals.
It wasn't until Venus Raj that became the catalyst for Philippines' renaissance in Miss Universe after her fourth runner-up finish in 2010.

Di pa kasi ganun ka intense ang training ng comskill , pero nagtrain sya ng pasarela sa Venezuela.....

She's so smart.
This girl Should've won
I remember when I was watching this, that Miriam will gonna make it to the top.
Just imagine if she had the Q&A support that Filipina contestants now receive. She would have been unbeatable.
for your information MIRIAM is a graduate of a top university. She doesnt need those so called Q and A support for FOREIGNERs with no college degree and can't do impromptu speeches.
@@eduardochavacano Trainings are still crucial no matter how good you are. There is always a room for improvement., particularly in preparing for a tough competition such as this where it is an everybody’s game.
i think she answered the questions very well, the way she referred to her falling down on stage was hilarious and for me it was a winning answer
One of the Best Miss Universe Pageant in history! :D One with the most diverse and intelligent semi-finalist.
even though she didn't win, she's my favorite miss philippines representative
For me, this was the most festive edition of Miss Universe
She definitely represents Miss Universe. Even the MU logo, it depicts and displays “Miriam Quiambao” with its poise and elegance.
ganda nya! ganda ng mata! pinay na pinay! yung katawan very perfect!
4:27 i remember this shot of the 10 ladies. Miriam was a clear standout. That stature is still unmatched IMO
True definition of elegance and beauty.
You Can See Even The Girls Adored Her When Her Named Was Called.
She’s my ultimate favorite Miss Universe Philippines up until now and forever very classy and elegant very Filipina. I know she’s the heavy favorite to win the Miss Universe crown during her time and her charisma is so unforgettable. Nakakapanghinayang lang but very proud of her.
I love this girl. Very bright personality. 😁 proud
One of the best representative we have,,,I think kaya di nya nasungkit yung title kasi even ok yung sagot nya panay ngiti and nadestruct sya sa audience...kung baga hindi tuloy tuloy.
I like her ans,,,,kalakonga nun sya Na e.

They are same looks. They looks sweet and very beautiful. Thai people love Sarah and Miriam 1999 very much. From Thailand 👧💓
Miriam is still my most favorite delegate sent in Miss Universe.
Wow ganda pala talaga ni miriam... Her beauty is so unique nga talaga compared sa lahat ng delegates natin. She's so gorg.
The values and beauty of real Filipina ❤❤❤❤❤
Everything about her is so lovable, you would simply wish to hug her ❤❤❤❤
Absolutely the best Ms.Philippines ever sent to compete at Ms.Universe! And that walk? One of the bests in Miss Universe history! The poise, the elegance, and how she waved at the crowd are just pure class.
Kala mo talaga si Miriam na mananalo nito ... sayang 3rd crown na sana :)
Larawan ng tunay na filipina beauty
She is smart and beautiful
Watching while staying home, you were so cute Miriam back then, you were so proud telling the universe about your fall 😀😀😀, I really admired you for being so mahinhin 💖💖💖💖💖💖.
She have a lot of class and poise she is the favorite to win that year she must be the 3rd MU from the Philippines during that time
When Pia won in 2015 she had the same hairstyle as Miriam. I like to think Pia Wurtzbach won for all the Miss Philippines that SHOULDVE after all those years of being snubbed. And Catriona burnt it into their memories that will make them all never forget the Philippines 🇵🇭
Miriam looked so elegant that night. Many tried to copy that strut and pose, and failed.
the best presentation of Ms. Universe so far
Eric Liwanag I agree. The scoring system after each round is always reset to zero. @missuniverse @img
I really love the way she answered every question raised...love her..Mabuhay ang mga Filipina...
Before Pia and Catriona, we had Miriam Quiambao. For many years, she had been our "torch" at Miss Universe. Of course, our first two queens, pero Miriam was the torch for the next generation of fans
I hope we can send candidates with beauty like of miriam quiambao and janine tugonon.. maxine medina is ok too..oriental beauties!! MiriamQuiambao is my top fave miss universe philippines candidate so far.. then followed by janine then pia...
julian lee except lang na super bobita ni Maxine
Philippines has a class of her own. A true image of a filipina..
meriam quiambao should be hired as trainer for our candidates...
wow, miss philippines walk so effortlessly so elegant and glamorous. I admire her so much.
MIRIAM QUIAMBAO is and always be my MS. UNIVERSE what a classy gorgeous smart woman..
My favorite was her evening gown performance. She looks so elegant in that gown.
Very regal and naturally charming. One of the classiest Miss Philippines. The Miss Universe we never had.
She has a lot of class, a lot of poise!
miriam is indeed in fighting form during that time
Miriam was that glimmer of hope in the middle of the drought that Philippines still got it in beauty pageants.
Naalala ko 'tong pageant na 'to ay napakamakulay saka sobrang buhay na buhay mga contestant pati mga manonood. Adding the fact that it was 1999 so approaching the year of Jubilee 😉
And the most iconic part dto yung tlgang natapilo si Ma'am Miriam grbe sigawan namin sa bahay noon 🤪 feeling namin maliligwak na pambato natin.
Well, being 1st runner up is superb na and for us she was the Ms. Universe during her time. Her presence and beauty to the pageant brought Philippines to the top na!
Lots of love Ma'am Miriam! ❤️❤️❤️ And kudos!
miriam is my favorite ms, universe philippines.....gandang di pagsasawaan...beauty and brains with elegance
What an outstanding performance?! Demarchelier loved her.
WHO'S HERE BEFORE 2019??
She’s the 3rd miss universe we never had.
MAGANDA AT GWAPO TALAGA KAMI QUIAMBAO
I'm so proud of Miss Miriam Quiambao.. in fairness 2 her she really did her best :)
I remember Manila and Caloocan was outrageously loud during that time!
Commercials keep on pouring in for RPN9!
Truth!
If only she has delivered her answer with spontaneity and conviction she could have been the Ms. Universe that year.
She should have been our 3rd miss Universe! Janine should have been the 4th, Pia's the 5th and Catriona's the 6th. 😭
Charlene, Miriam, and Janine, all from the same ELite University. Does Catriona have a college degree?
🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
Such a beauty, poise and intelligence...her answer was like that if Catriona's...a meaty one...the Ms. Universe we.never had🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭❤️❤️❤️👌
Watching July 2020. My first time watching Miss Universe pageant was during this time of Miriam Quiambao representing Philippines.. 😅 I'm still a fan of Miriam til now! ❤❤❤

Her scores for her were ridiculously low. Philippines answer in Q&A was more real. Botswana's answer was pretentious. Botswana said a reigning Miss MU should not step down if she got pregnant.

Duh...Miss Botswana!s response is brave since it's impossible for the reigning winner to continue her duty when she's pregnant..She didn't mind at all to express her opinion and that's very impressive enough for the judged
I don’t think it was pretentious. She won because it was the best answer. I love Philippines but Botswana stole hearts that year. Don’t take it away from her.
meron yung 2
Jupiter kailan ba naging realistic ang sagot aa miss universe pag sensitive issue dapat play safe ka naman talaga kaya nga womens empowerment yan! gaya ng isyu ng transgender kahit disagree ka kailangan mong sabihin na ok lang gaya sa bb pilipinas puro bash nga inabot ng isang contestant dahil dun sa question about sa third sex cr
Botswana was confident...and philippines wasn't.
great edition!!!
It should have been her coz her answer is still substantial its all about her delivery that time. During her time they also took into consideration the confidence in delivering if only she didnt choke and delivered it smoothly it could have been her and that is where Bostwana took the lead. Mpule without batting of an eyelash she delivered her answer smoothly.
Marami ang kumwestyon sa sagot ni miriam sa final q&a noon, na kesyo pangit kesyo ganito kesyo ganyan, pero i believe in reality yun nmn talaga ang gagawin ng sinumang nasa trono, 13years later, ang sagot ni miriam ay pinatunayan ni Olivia Culpo, di ba reigning si olivia at nabuntis sya pero hindi xa, bumaba sa trono tinapos nya ito, kaya ng noong inirampa nito ang mamahaling swimsuit ay di inalis ang telang nakatali sa bandang puson nito dahil medyo mapapansin na ang umbok nito
Huh? Are you dreaming?
saang lupalop ng kalawakan mo napulot ang tsismis na ito?
Et Veritas . yes i read that rumor about olivia culpo.
Tsismis lang po yun. Not true.
Bobo neto.
I think she desrves the crown.most lovely and elegant beauty.
I thought she's the winner until the final question :(
