00:00Welcome to the program!
00:30Woo!
00:32July 1969, dalawang American astronauts ay landed on the moon.
00:40July 19, 1969, sa Miami, Florida, nagwagi po ang Philippine representative sa Ms. Universe Beauty Pageant.
00:49July 26, bumisita po dito sa Pilipinas in a state visit former President Richard Nixon na nagsabing,
00:57the United States conquered the moon, but the Philippines conquered the universe.
01:04Woo!
01:05Woo!
01:05Woo!
01:06Woo!
01:07Woo!
01:07Woo!
01:08Woo!
01:08Woo!
01:09Kasama ho natin ngayong hapon ang conqueror na ating pinag-uusapan.
01:15Naytai Kapuso, please welcome the one and the only, Gloria Diaz!
01:19Thank you, thank you very much.
01:27Kumusta?
01:28Pareho na tayong senior citizen.
01:30How old na?
01:3252.
01:33I don't believe you.
01:34Allow me to lie, Gloria.
01:36Okay!
01:38Allow me to lie.
01:39No, your people told me to ask you.
01:41Talaga?
01:42Oo.
01:43And they knew that I was going to lie.
01:46But how are you?
01:47Very good, very good.
01:48You're doing so good.
01:49Thank you, thank you.
01:49No, but I want to talk about that, Ms. Universe.
01:51Alam ko medyo, minsan siguro nakakapagod na because everybody asks you about, you know,
01:55what happened in 1969.
01:57But this one, I want to know, kasi di ba lumalamas sa mga feeds natin, lalo no sa feed ko.
02:06Did you have an inkling that you were going to win?
02:09No, definitely not.
02:10But I didn't think I was going to lose.
02:12Oh.
02:13I mean, parang, you don't naman go into a contest and say, ay, naku, matatalo ako.
02:18Hindi naman ganun ang attitude noon eh.
02:20Okay, enjoy.
02:21I'm sure I'm going to all be okay.
02:23Hindi ba ganun yun?
02:24But you were not specific in saying that I'm going to get a crown.
02:29Or were you?
02:30Alam mo, when you're young, it's not like that eh.
02:33When you're young, it's parang go with the flow.
02:35That's why you're not as tense.
02:36I think it's when you're old and you have a lot of responsibilities.
02:40Like now, the girls are a little bit older.
02:43So parang they're the breadwinners.
02:45They have to do this.
02:46E ako naman, my role was, that's the first time I'm away from home.
02:51So enjoy ako.
02:52You were just having fun.
02:53Yeah, not only having fun.
02:55Parang discovering so many.
02:56That's the first time I went to the States.
02:58Oh.
02:59And I was 18, di ba?
03:01Yes.
03:02And be on my own, parang ganun.
03:04Although I had a chaperon.
03:05So ibang klase.
03:06First time to wear heels besides Miss Philippines, right?
03:10So you're discovering.
03:11Ano yung mga discoveries mo?
03:13I think first time din nag-deodorant, eh.
03:16Kasi they give us all deodorants and stuff like that.
03:19When you're so young, you don't do naman those things, eh.
03:21Hindi ba?
03:22Okay.
03:22All right.
03:23So it was an exploration.
03:25Yes.
03:26Of glory at 18.
03:27I was the youngest, also.
03:29You were the youngest.
03:30I was the youngest girl there.
03:31And then they talked about, in the beginning, kasi when you have the, how do you call that,
03:35when they tell you about what to do, they also introduce the pill.
03:40Di ba?
03:41Okay.
03:41So that nobody gets pregnant.
03:43Okay, okay.
03:46Go with the flow.
03:48Kasi before, usually the girls were between 18 to 21, 22, right?
03:54In fact, there was one girl who was always being introduced, and the oldest among the crowd
03:59are 24-year-old contestant from I don't know where.
04:03Wala naman 24-year-old contestant noon, eh.
04:06By 24, dapat may career na and everything.
04:08But iba na ngayon, eh.
04:09Things have changed, di ba?
04:10I know.
04:11Pero if a man landed, if a man to the moon landed in your hometown, what do you do to entertain him?
04:18How would you answer that question today?
04:19At this point?
04:19Yes.
04:21Depende how he looks, di ba?
04:24Importante.
04:25Blue-eyed, six-foot-one.
04:27What would you do?
04:28Well, many things.
04:30You'll talk to Mike.
04:33Please, babe, relax ka diyan.
04:34Jangan muna.
04:35This is only pang ngayon lang.
04:37Okay.
04:38But how would you do it?
04:39I mean, depends on how he looks, Ann?
04:41Of course naman, eh.
04:42Siyempre, if he looks naman not so great, sige, you wanna eat?
04:47Go na.
04:47Or something.
04:49I have nothing to do with the moon, right?
04:51Okay.
04:51But depende kung guapo.
04:53And I've met a lot of good-looking ones there.
04:56Yeah.
04:56I totally understand that.
04:57Pero ever since, every time there are contests, you're invited to judge.
05:02And you've been very, well, again, controversial because of some of the questions that you'd ask during contests.
05:09You know, I always try to be the kindest person, the most, the simplest question.
05:16I know.
05:16But then, they over make it bigger and bigger.
05:21Kasi siya ba siya, Gloria Diaz na magtatanong, eh?
05:22No.
05:23In fact, the next time, I said, my next question na lang, who is your best friend and why?
05:29Okay.
05:29You know, you can't go wrong with that, no?
05:32But sometimes it becomes like, they want to come up with profound answers.
05:37Philosophical.
05:38Yes.
05:39Answers.
05:39It's become very profound.
05:40Pero do you realize, Gloria, that the hardest questions to answer are the simplest?
05:45Kasi liyabaw, anong nagtanong ka nun?
05:47Beautiful or not too, beautiful and not too smart or very smart but not too beautiful.
05:52And then you help pa.
05:54Yeah.
05:54Smart or beautiful.
05:56Yeah.
05:56Di ba?
05:56Yeah.
05:57But then they're natataranta.
05:59And then I even translate yata sometimes in Tagalog or something.
06:03You do that.
06:03But how would you handle a question like that, Gloria?
06:06If I were to...
06:07If you were to answer that question.
06:08Siyempre, I want to be beautiful.
06:10Ako din.
06:11Yeah.
06:12I don't care to be smart.
06:13I can hire somebody smart.
06:15Yeah.
06:16But I don't want to be smart and have to hire somebody beautiful.
06:20That's true.
06:21Di ba?
06:22Di ba?
06:23I want to be beautiful.
06:24Okay.
06:24In our last conversation, you also mentioned, na para sa iyo, ang beauty is 99% youth.
06:30Isn't it?
06:31I agree.
06:33But you are an exception.
06:34I mean, what do you do with people who are seniors like them wanting to know how old I am?
06:40No.
06:41But what is it?
06:42Can you explain more?
06:43No.
06:43You know, when you are aging like I am, not you, you still look the same.
06:49No.
06:49Like I am.
06:50But of course, I see myself in the mirror and I have lots of lights so I can see everything.
06:58I can see.
06:58If you have a good relationship with your family or someone you care about, I think you are the last of your concerns.
07:08You don't think of youth, you have to be beautiful because you're young or you need to be beautiful all the time.
07:16You just have to kind of accept it and okay lang.
07:20That's when you become beautiful.
07:21I think experience and wisdom come with age.
07:23And experience.
07:25No, not really.
07:25The experience.
07:26Now wala yung mga baget.
07:27That's what I told Mike.
07:29He exchanged youth for experience.
07:36What's the answer to Mike?
07:37Yeah, you taught me everything I know.
07:41No, joke.
07:43No, you've been together for 28 years.
07:46Yes.
07:47And you're not talking about marriage.
07:51Oh my God.
07:52No, it's true.
07:52What else?
07:53White walking down the aisle?
07:56Not necessarily white.
07:57You can wear another color of glory.
07:59You know, this is 2025.
08:01I like my house.
08:02And he likes his house when he lives.
08:04So, it's difficult to discuss marriage because we'll have to give up one or the other.
08:09You mean you're not living together?
08:11No.
08:11You're not?
08:12No.
08:13Oh, okay.
08:15But I'm not celibate.
08:16You are not celibate.
08:21How important is that?
08:22How important is your intimacy in your relationship?
08:26Super.
08:26Super.
08:26Super.
08:26But there's different levels.
08:28There's physical intimacy.
08:30Right.
08:30There is when you know a person doesn't feel well.
08:34You know when he's feeling insecure.
08:36When she is feeling upset or not happy.
08:41Or even when you order food.
08:43You know, you kind of know what he wants to order or you want to order.
08:47I mean, there's different.
08:48I'm not only talking about physical.
08:50That's true.
08:50And that's expressed in different ways.
08:53Yeah.
08:53That's the intimacy.
08:54That's the physical intimacy.
08:56I know it transcends just the physical.
08:59But when you talk about the physical.
09:01Of course.
09:01You have to have physical.
09:03You have to.
09:04Yeah.
09:04I mean, he's younger.
09:06Right?
09:07Not a lot.
09:08I mean, nine years, eight years.
09:09Yeah, but he doesn't drink.
09:11He doesn't smoke.
09:12Okay.
09:12He doesn't even swear.
09:14Yeah.
09:15He's such a nice, quiet man.
09:16Not all the time.
09:17Not all the time.
09:18So you also fight.
09:20No.
09:21No, but you're an artist.
09:22He's a banker.
09:23He's very, how do you say, Mike is a very, like you say, giving.
09:28He always agrees with what you say, but that's what he wants to do.
09:31But he wasn't intimidated in the beginning.
09:33In the beginning, not intimidated.
09:36Off balance more.
09:37Like, oh my God.
09:39So how did he make Ligaw?
09:41How did he make Ligaw?
09:43Well, I didn't force him, but kind of welcomed him.
09:48Okay.
09:48No, I knew right away.
09:49Because you know Bong, my husband.
09:51Yes.
09:52Right?
09:52He was cool.
09:53He was nice guy, everything.
09:55And he was my friend.
09:56Yeah.
09:56He was your friend and everything.
09:57So when I separated from him, I thought to myself, I'm going to get the exact opposite of Bong.
10:04Ah, so it was deliberate.
10:06Deliberate.
10:06I looked at Mike one day, and I said, this is the biggest nerd in Manila.
10:11I'm going to get this guy.
10:13He's very conservative, very nerdy, very everything.
10:16And really, when I saw him, I said, I'll try this one.
10:20Did you make him wild?
10:23Maybe.
10:24But I still want to see him drink, which he never did.
10:32When he first went out with me, and I ordered a margarita, he also ordered margarita.
10:37I said, ah, okay to.
10:38Okay.
10:39He didn't touch it, so I drank it.
10:41Okay.
10:43Then afterwards, I said, about 12 o'clock, 1 o'clock, and then he said, you want to go out for another drink after dinner?
10:50And I said, yeah, sure, I said, oh my God, no, this is going to be another bong.
10:54And then when we got there, 1 o'clock, I ordered a cappuccino.
10:58He also ordered a cappuccino.
11:00I said, my God, he's so cool.
11:02I mean, you know, he didn't drink it, so I drank it also.
11:06Sayang, di ba?
11:07Ganun pala, he was faking me.
11:09He doesn't drink, and he doesn't even drink coffee.
11:11But he was trying to please you, and that was his way.
11:13Yeah, but ordering.
11:14That was his way of winning you.
11:15Yeah, by that time, he just arrived from America.
11:18He was a baby.
11:19Right.
11:20And let's talk about Beauty Empire.
11:22So, Kanina, you said you're working with two girls.
11:25Yeah.
11:25So, how is it?
11:26I mean, you're playing the, yeah, Rufa is also there.
11:29The matriarch.
11:30I'm playing the matriarch.
11:32Okay.
11:32Who has a son, who, it twists in the end, and who's so good.
11:38Who's very magaling umarte.
11:39But the two girls are very cute.
11:41They're very nice.
11:43And they treat me like, careful, careful.
11:47You know, they always think I'm going to trip.
11:50They don't know I can outrun them both.
11:52But it's okay, because then I get cut off, di ba?
11:54Because of being a senior citizen.
11:56But they're very nice, and they're very good actors.
11:59Invite everybody to, yeah.
12:01Okay.
12:01Everybody, don't forget, it's now on GMA and VIEW.
12:07Right.
12:08Watch it, it's fun, and there's always a surprise at the very end.
12:13And, um, I'm evil.
12:17Really?
12:18Kind of.
12:18And no redeeming factor.
12:21Just evil?
12:22Just evil.
12:22Okay lang.
12:24Okay, I'm happy to be evil naman.
12:26Is it hard to play?
12:28Maybe it's innate.
12:32Hindi ako.
12:34My question is, when you play something evil,
12:36Ah, nahihirapan ka ba to, you know, to get out of that character?
12:40Or?
12:40No, it's, parang, it's really me, eh.
12:42Talaga?
12:43Ka na bitchy.
12:44Ah-ha.
12:45But you're nice.
12:46You're kind.
12:47Come on.
12:47I'm joking.
12:49Sweet na bitchy, bagong bitchy pala.
12:51But that's, you know, you're the amalgam of everything.
12:55Oh, di ba?
12:56But don't buy that thing that, ah, she's evil, she's not.
13:00That's a joke.
13:01Ah, let's do fast talk.
13:02Yes!
13:05Let's do fast talk with Gloria Diaz.
13:07Corona, pera.
13:09Ah, pera.
13:10Corona, pag-ibig.

13:17Ah, ah, ah, empire.
13:19Long gown, swimsuit.
13:21At this point, long gown.

13:25Ah, timeless.

13:40Whoever's there, I guess.
13:42Mas rare, true love, true beauty.
13:45True love.
13:46Mas nakakabata, pag-ibig o exercise?
13:49Exercise.
13:51Mas maganda, ikaw o si Isabel?
13:53Isabel.
13:54Ayaw mo sa mga lalaki?
13:56Huwag kang matakot sa multo, matakot ka sa kuripot.
14:00Ayaw mo sa mga babae?
14:03Malandi.
14:04Advantage ng pagiging maganda?
14:06A lot of privileges.
14:08Disadvantage ng pagiging maganda?
14:11Kailangan laging maganda.
14:13One word, describe yourself as a mother.
14:15Over protective.
14:17As a lola?
14:17I love my babies.
14:21As a partner?
14:22Spoiled.
14:23As a queen?
14:24Trying to be.
14:26Lights on or lights off?
14:28Lights on or lights off?
14:29Anything.
14:30Standing, lying down, okay.
14:31Yeah.

14:42I am Gloria Diaz and I am.
14:45And I am here to stay.
14:48Oh.
14:49And you will stay.
14:52Kung magpapangalang ka, Gloria, ng tatlong mga artista,
14:56three girls who to you are the most beautiful in the business,
15:01sino sila ang kasagutan sa pagbabalik po ng Fast Talk with Boy Abunda.
15:06Back on the show with Ms. Gloria Diaz.
15:17The best thing about show business para sa'yo, Gloria?
15:20It's creative and you never know what to expect.
15:24And you meet very interesting people.
15:28You know, I'm not only talking about artistas.
15:30I'm talking more producers who want to create something beautiful,
15:34something different, something, sometimes you like it,
15:37sometimes you don't.
15:38And I think it's the people, the best thing about show business,
15:41including the crew.
15:42Right.
15:42You know, they're very kind, usefully.
15:45Has the business been good to you, Gloria?
15:47Over.
15:48Over.
15:49How many 74-year-olds, I mean 47-year-olds,
15:5247, yeah.
15:54are still working and enjoying all the privileges
15:57and getting good money and still, you know,
16:01I'm very, very, very blessed.
16:04And this was not planned?
16:08No.
16:09Diba?
16:10No.
16:10I definitely didn't plan,
16:12but I did also plan on my retirement.
16:14Okay.
16:15You know.
16:15Tatlong pinakamagagandang artista para sa'yo.
16:19Pinakamagaganda doesn't mean I necessarily like them.
16:22Okay?
16:23Okay.
16:23Okay.
16:24Of course, my daughter.
16:25She's perfect, right?
16:26Isabel.
16:27She's beautiful.
16:30Marian Rivera.
16:33I don't necessarily like her,
16:35but she's one of the most beautiful.
16:36Perfect ang muka.
16:38And then, two,
16:40I think Kylie.
16:43Kylie has, you know,
16:45when she matures a little bit more.
16:48She's beautiful, Kylie.
16:49Kylene, the one I'm working with.
16:51Ah, Kylene, Alcantara.
16:52Yeah, she's beautiful.
16:53I can't remember their names,
16:55but there are some very beautiful, but.
16:57Pero ang magkaiba sa Kylene at si Maya,
17:00I like all kinds.
17:01I also like Bumbayin types.
17:03And I'm not saying they're good actors or actors.
17:06I'm just talking of face.
17:08Diba?
17:08Kasi like in GMA,
17:10the ball,
17:10I saw so many beautiful girls.
17:13Medyo magkakamuka sila,
17:14pero magaganda ang muka.
17:16Magkakamuka because?
17:17Because that's the also now,
17:20that face, you know,
17:21skinny, tall,
17:23they're beautiful.
17:25I think they're beautiful.
17:26Right.
17:27My last question.
17:28If you were
17:28to give a piece of advice
17:32to the young Gloria Diaz,
17:35what would that be today?
17:39And you're talking to,
17:40let's say,
17:41the Gloria Diaz of...
17:43Of before?
17:44Yeah.
17:45Always have a camera.
17:46So that you can always
17:47take up the pictures
17:48of all the people you've met
17:50and all...
17:50Because I've met so many people
17:51and I always tell my daughters,
17:53you know,
17:53I knew Elvis Presley.
17:55Huh?
17:56Why?
17:56Where's the picture?
17:57Well, there were no cameras before.
17:59Really?
18:00You know Elvis Presley?
18:01Yeah.
18:01Wow.
18:02I also met,
18:03what is his name?
18:05Ricky Nelson.
18:06Diba?
18:06Guapo.
18:07Yes.
18:07Then I met,
18:08of course,
18:09the astronaut.
18:10I met also Clint Eastwood.
18:11And I also met,
18:14of course,
18:15other older stars,
18:16but at least those famous guys.
18:18Diba?
18:19Wow.
18:20I had pictures pa with them
18:21because we had the same sponsors.
18:23Okay.
18:24But what you're saying is
18:24you didn't capture...
18:25You didn't capture.
18:26So now,
18:27even now,
18:27when I meet regular people,
18:29I met a lot of people now.
18:32I mean,
18:32can you imagine?
18:33You met the old man Marcos,
18:35you met Macapagal,
18:36all those people.
18:37Diba?
18:37That's nice to have
18:38even one album
18:39of all the VIPs you've met.
18:41Diba?
18:42It's hard to make
18:42kwento-kwento.
18:43No,
18:43it's easier now
18:44because you have the phone.
18:45Yes.
18:45Yes.
18:46Yes.
18:46You never say no
18:48to someone who requests
18:49for a photo with you.
18:50No,
18:50no,
18:51I don't.
18:51Because you understand
18:52how important that.
18:52The hardest part is
18:53when you're rushing
