Gloria Diaz Says Maxine Medina Could Be Among The Top Contenders And Would Only Be 'Saling Pusa'


Gloria Diaz, Miss Universe 1969 is the first Filipina beauty queen to bring home the crown in the country. She already had her picks for the top 5. In fact, she named her Miss U bets.

The former beauty queen said on top of her mind are the girls with whom she had interacted in the times she had attended the Miss U events. 

Among them were Miss Universe Canada Siera Bearchell, who according to her needs to shed some weight.

 "If Canada could lose 8 pounds, I love her face. Am I right? She’s beautiful," she said in an interview.

Gloria Diaz also finds Miss Venezuela, Miss Dominican Republic, Miss Thailand, and Miss China "beautiful" and "gorgeous."

Meanwhile, on Philippines' bet Maxine Medina, Gloria believes that Maxine could be among the top contenders, but admitted that she would only be a "saling pusa" (token candidate).

According to her: "She cannot nga be the winner. She can be first runner-up. I hope I’m proven wrong for the first time in my life. I want her to win. I want us to be so proud, but you know, that’s life," she said.
"We are the host. The host country cannot [win]. I cannot serve lechon and bring it back to my kitchen kasi I’m giving it to you," she added.
