Gloria Diaz Miss Universe 1969 from Philippines
Gloria Diaz became the first Filipino to win the Miss Universe title. But, not many were happy with the results and it was claimed that the victory was a political victory. The media heavily criticized Gloria’s victory, but the Filipinos celebrated their first Miss Universe victory. Gloria nailed the final Q&A when she was asked, “In the next day or so, a man will land on the moon. If a man from the moon landed in your hometown, what would you do to entertain him?” To which she answered, "Oh, just the same things I do. I think if he has been on the moon for so long, I think when he comes over he wants to change, I guess."
