Aurora Pijuan Miss International 1970

When Aurora was crowned as Miss International, her victory intended that the Philippines was the first and only country to win the Miss International crown twice in the history. She only appeared in two movies. Her introductory role came in 1973 via the trilogy flick “Si Popeye Atbp” where she played Olive Oyl to Ariel Ureta’s Popeye in the first episode. The following year, she was casted as one of the leading ladies opposite then action star Ramon Revilla Sr. in the Spanish-American war movie titled “Sunugin ang Samar”. She is presently an active member of the Gawad Kalinga movement in the rural areas of the Philippines. A woman with sturdy demeanor, she is truly appreciable.
