Miss Universe opening during those days has culture relevance.
True! Nowadays, the stage design is so generic that you can't even feel the host country's culture.
The Miss Universe pageants of yesteryears had so much class and prestige. So lacking today.
Today, thanks to Trump (even despite his being in the Oval Office), the pageants have now sunk to the level of "flesh parades."
@Pine Delgado there are shareholders, he’s not the only one , so thanks to the shareholders as well
This is one of the best Miss Universe pageant show in the entire Miss Universe history!
Estos estándares de belleza me agradan más que los actuales.
Sii, las chicas lucen más naturales, tienen más curvas, no como ahora que se les llega ver la cara artificial de tanto arreglo, y de cuerpo flacas como palo.
El opening más espectacular de un MU, Santo Domingo 1977
Espectacular, y todo hecho a mano, nada de pantallas computacionales. Ahora la apertura las misses bailan uma canción discotequera y listo, se perdió la magia.
The girls had more of a natural look back then. I liked Paraguay and Sweden but neither made semis, so I went w/ Spain, USA or Trinidad that night; we were shocked when Miss Trinidad won, the first black MU, she was the talk of the high school I went to the following Monday, everyone agreeing she deserved the crown.
WOW...That opening ceremony parade just melted my heart... just can't imagine what all the audience was feeling. BRAVO BRAVO for the Dominican people who work HARD to deliver a great display of their culture from the beginning trough the end of the show
Those were the days when the pageant had the host country's culture and feel all over the telecast. Now? You wouldn't know where the pageant was taking place.
@@PungiFungiGood News the Opening Ceremony Returned the culture style and it was held in New Orleans but it’s still the same thing but with improvements i hope so this kind of openings will return this year in El Salvador and the stage props or decorations that was held in host countries
@@johngabrieltag-at8106 I am hoping the new owner will bring MU back to the years of the 1970s to mid 1990s...it is these years that create the passionate pageant fan base that exists today. There was so much class and respectability back then. Also, the pageant was more transparent in how the winner is selected.
Creamy skin, beautiful face, this is one of the most beautiful winner to date.
Janelle was truly beautiful, stunning in fact.
Uno de los opening más impresionantes de la historia del Miss Universo. Míss Venezuela 1977 Cristal Montañez inolvidable y excelente ser humano
José Luis Salazar Oficial sin duda todo un espectáculo. Para el 77 es el primer I único miss universo que se firmó en parte en su palacio nacional. Uno de los más completos organizados I costosos de la historia de miss universo
@@oscarpalacios3302 Así es. Un Miss Universo extraordinario e inolvidable Oscar. Saludos desde Venezuela.
Uno de los más espectaculares MU de la historia ,que orgullo que fué realizado en Republica Dominicana,fué un espectáculo excepcional y en esa época no había los recursos tecnológicos de hoy,sin embargo siendo un país pequeño,en subdesarrollo,
pusimos el alma y el corazón en mostrar un MU digno para el mundo,que será recordado por siempre.Nunca olvídate que fui del grupo de niñas elegidas para participar en el opening y no cabía en mí pecho tanta emoción . Estoy deseando que volvamos a ser sede . QUE VIVA REPUBLICA DIMINICANA 🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴
Una de las aperturas mas hermosas de Miss Universo
Que yo recuerdo
mareli romal es considerado uno de los miss universo más completos organizados I más costosos de su historial
Fastuoso...no me canso de ver esta versión de MU de 1977 en Rep. Dominicana. Increible, que sin toda la tecnología, que hay hoy, hubiesen hecho algo tan espectacular.
Mucho mejor que los miss universo que hacen a hora.
Muy Favorito Mises are India, Korea, Colombia, Taiti Trinidad y Tobago, Holand, Costa rica, Puerto rico, Filand, Japan, Philippines, Chile, Austria , El Salvador and Bolivia
The final question made her win the crown, good choice.....Argentina deserved better!!!!
I’m sorry but the final question that all of the top 5 gave were not great answers.
Miss Trinidad and Tobago. What a stunning beauty. The first black miss universe ever.
Wow!! Me quito el sombrero ante la apertura mas elegante y con clase que he visto de Miss Universo..La República Dominicana siempre es especial..La indiosincrasia del pueblo se dejó ver..Felicidades a los dominicanos..
Primeira MISS UNIVERSO NEGRA. Linda, maravilhosa. belo concurso...
My Goodness...these ladies are absolutely GORGEOUS...like porcelain dolls....n so great to see lots of coloured participants.
Theyre just incredibly Beautiful.
The small nation of Dominican republic put on an excellent pageant, one of the best ever.
I remember watching this back in 77. Trinidad stood out with her beauty and elegance. Slam dunk winner
And Roberto Cavalli (one of the judges) married the first runner-up, then Miss Austria! Husband and wife till today!
One of the most festive openings of all time. It is also one of the most star studded judging panels of all time.... vidal sasson oscar dela renta roberto cavalli and dione warwick to name a few...
One of the most spectacular openings. The judges in the 1970s were bonafide celebrities.
OMG What a jury and crowd!!! Cantinflas, Oscar de la Renta, Roberto Cavalli, Dionne Warwick, Willeminna, etc etc
ERAN OTROS TIEMPOS. DONDE LA BELLEZA SI ERA BELLEZA. NATURAL. COMPLETAMENTE NATURAL. LA COLOMBIANA ERA SUPER HERMOSA.
17:21 miss korea She is so cute❤😊 & Her smile shines more beautiful and bright than anything else in the world.
Yes is the most beautiful to date. And the first black!!'
this opening is the most joyful and festive I have seen in all the miss universe !!! 👌🏾👍🏽👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
@@taroupriapus9760 ,nah...the stage was too small, like with Thailand in 1992. The pageant they hosted in 1974 was MORE spectacular.
Janelle "Penny" Commissiong is the Miss Universe I remember most vividly. :) :)
I remember watching this contest. Well not exactly watching because we were kids back then unaware of what my older folks were intently watching that time. But it was this. We were at our neighbor's house, invited to watch the live event on tv. My sister took me along. But instead of watching the show, I had other things to do with the other kids in the house, running here and there. But I remember the old folks exclaiming, "what the heck, the black girl will win it!" And they were correct 😊
Dios ! Lo mejor de lo mejor! Oscar De la Renta, Vidal Sasson, Wihelmina, Bob Evans, Cavalli; URI Geller, Dionne Warwick, Cantinflas un jurado ecléctico,
Exactamente!!! Personalidades con conocimiento, experiencia y gran visión para elegir...
A kinder gentler pageant. Beautiful ladies are beautiful no matter what year. Janelle is exquisite
Fue el año que Miss Nicaragua clasificó por primera vez con nuestra Beatriz Obregon Lacayo .
COLOMBIA. PRECIOSA. CARA DE MUÑECA. DESTACO. Y LE HIZO HONOR A NUESTRAS MUJERES COLOMBIANAS. MUY LINDA.
1 TRINIDAD Y TOBAGO
2 AUSTRIA
3 ESCOCIA
4 HOLANDA
5 COLOMBIA Y VENEZUELA
Back then, when they even showed you how the theatre backstage looks like, those old times are gold!
No había nacido cuando se celebro esta edición del Miss Universo en Mi tierra República Dominicana, espero que se realice de nuevo en este hermoso país, mi país!!! Hermosa la ganadora.
Miss Trinidad is one of the most beautiful, smart and elegant Miss Universe winners ever! What happened to Miss Argentina? She should have been in the Top 5!!!
They're all gorgeous.
You know Miss Austria thought she had this! If you look closely she started rejoicing before he called the winner
What a beautiful pageant the Dominican Republic put on a great show in 1977. As always a beautiful 80 young ladies this year. Hard to pick just one favorite. Bob Barker really was a fantastic host. Amazingly good with speaking’s couple of other languages besides English. Miss Bob Barker. Fantastic program this year. Thanks ttt pageant for contributing this to the uploading of the major pageants. Greatly appreciate you’re kindness👌👍💐😊
Proud of being related to this person! Miss Universe of 1977.
Como siempre Colombia entre las mas Bella's inolvidable nuestra Aura Maria Mojica Salcedo la mas Bella reina que tenido Buga Valle Colombia
Miss Austria was pretty sure she won so she rise her arms ... She never thought a black girl could become miss universe
Miss India beautiful, wow
Miss Austria is the wife of the designer Roberto Cavalli
Anthony Flores: then that's the reason she went to far, second place!!
Que opening más bello 😊
I do agree with the judges Miss Trinidad and Tobago is a beautiful African one , very pretty one . Viva Miss Trinidad and Tobago!
I was born in 1999 but this is my favorite Miss Universe to date... 🙈😂😂😂 the class *sigh* back when not all women looked the same 😭
Also I love the way they’re playing Sir Duke in the background at the beginning 😩
The first Black lady to win the show, Beautiful and elegant Janelle, Trinidad and Tobago🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹❤❤❤❤
Miss Chile una de las mas hermosas.
Su belleza resaltaba entre todas las participantes.
I love the pageant back in the 1970s and 1980s...the contestants all had to learn to do the complex and intricate opening number, instead of everybody doing the same dance steps nowadays.
Estos si eran espectaculos ! Antes el concurso era mágico, se resaltaba la cultura del pais anfitrión, no como ahora que son tan aburridos, jamaz se comoaran los escenarios variados de antes con las porquerias de ahora, es todo monitores y nada mas! Y las chicas antes tan naturales y hermosas, no como las de ahora que solo lo que hacen es ridiculeces, gestos fingidos, posadas y haciendo tonterias y ridiculeces. Ojala vuelva el miss universo como esta época!
Que hermosa Miss Chile
Mi papa era el Ministro de Turismo, al que presentan... Mi mayor orgullo!!! Gracias por compartirlo!!!
Muchas felicidades!! Gran espectáculo..Excelente trabajo para presentar a su país ante el mundo....Orgullosa hija..Bendiciones❤️🙏
Yo tenía 14 años y fui al show de la presentación oficial en el teatro nacional y recuerdo lo mucho que el país apreciaba a tu papá. Debes de sentirte muy orgullosa, este evento no se hubiera celebrado sin su colaboración.
COLOMBIA LA MEJOR FABRICANTE DE MUÑECAS DEL MUNDO
Those times, Misses were all natural...not silicon, no dental work ( Miss USA)....
This pageant was nominated for an Emmy. Roberto Cavalli eventually married Miss Austria.
Happy TEARS….still all these years later!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😢😊😢😊😢😊 As an elementary school girl this was almost unbelievable for me to see at the time. My gorgeous young mother was dancing around the living room.💃🏽💯🙌🏾☝🏾🎼🎵🎶
Parecía que iban a fuerza, jajaja no sonreían casi. Se nota que eran otros tiempos
And seven years later, was born our first Miss Universe, Amelia Vega.
Y siete años más tarde, nació nuestra primera Miss Universo, Amelia Vega.
@@mchur001 Amelia was 2 years old then ?....because when She won She was 18 years old...
@@mchur001 Oh, yes, it happens, there's nothing wrong with that :)
@@jennifergrayje2497 Yes, I read it as their first Miss Universe 7 years later, which would have been 1984 (Sweden) and not 2003 which would actually be 26 years later not 16 years later as I clearly can't read well or do math. I didn't read it as Vega's actual birth year, 1984.
Five most beautiful ones are for me: USA, Nicaragua, Scotland, Venezuela, Spain Trinidad and Holland.
My TOP 5 choices are the following:
Trinidad and Tobagos
Colombia
Scotland
Dominican Republic
Holland
COLOMBIA. QUE MUJER TAN HERMOSA. AURA MARIA MOJICA. NUESTRA ETERNA REINA. DEL VALLE DEL CAUCA. FELICITACIONES
hay representaban la verdadera belleza esas mujeres eran naturales sin cirujias
Unos de los openings mas hermoso, cuanta inocencia todavia, bella Janelle, so glad she won.
Gracias Sr. Charles Bluhdorn, hizo el concurso posible en Santo Domingo.
Miss Colombia era la màs bella,por algo la bautizaròn en el concurso como la muñeca, si no ganò debio ser Virreina, al final ocupò el 4to lugar, pero dejò el nombre de Colombia muy en alto, hermosa Aura Marìa y aun lo es despuès de tanto tiempo.
Miss Trinidad and Tobago is a beautiful African one too! Bonita trigena!
Awesome pageant, beautiful the delegate from the philippines and venezuela! Bravo
What a very prestige panel of judges! Oscar Dela Renta, Roberto Cavalli, Vidal Sassoon, Willemina and Dione Warwick!
What a beauty. Bob Barker was an excellent host.
janelle was also fittingly awarded miss photogenic
Amazing Production! 23 minutes opening number & contestant introduction-(parade of nations) from the opening "ceremony" to the stage/scenography - unheard nowadays- now we can giant screens & a few minutes of introductions, times do change and I guess we must adapt :)
♥♥♥ I love everything in Miss Universe 1977 The cultural presentation, Opening number, introduction of the candidates, Stage design and Miss Universe 1977 Winner!! ♥♥♥
1977 Miss Uni was the only one ,I'm agreed that one most beautiful and still remembed her now。
Top 12
Scotland
Trinidad and Tobago
USA
Germany
Venezuela
Austria
Spain
Argentina
Nicaragua
Colombia
Holland
Dominican Republic
She was beautiful, but she answered her question the worse. They asked her about a country she'd like to visit and she said the Far East and stuck to it. In todays pageant world she would never have won.
Qué belleza, cuando había alegría, naturalidad y magia televisiva.
Loved Helen O'Connell. Best co-hostess that the Miss Universe pageant ever had
Bellísima Colombia
Helen O'Connell was excellent as hostess, she was a natural hostess.
Que linda presentación me atrevo a decir UNO DE LOS MEJORES. QUE LINDO ERA ESE CONCURSO Y COMO A CAMBIADO. Se lucio La Rep Dominicana ese aňo qué, gran y maravilloso Opening muy alegre y Contagiosa música. Cuando será que volveremos a ver un miss universo de altura como era antes. Era tudo un gran show.
yo vi este MU . que espectaculo.que calidad de evento de verdad muchas bellezas las misses espectaculares bien merecido la Ganadora la primera de color y hasta el momento la mas bella de nuestra raza. lo único que no me gusto que la chica local entro entre las 12 por ser sede habia muchas mas bella que ella por lo demas 20 puntos
Class all the way!
the whole and tens of thousands casts is overwhelming with pride!
⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful, Elegant, and poised, just magnificent.
cuando el miss universo era un certamen de altura no las porquerias que hacen ahora por no invertir
Absolutely.
Bien merecida la corona. Hermosa Miss Universo 1977
Que mujer tan bella la ganadora, es de las negras más hermosas junto a Wendy de 1998.
Amigo no te desmayes porque de ese concurso ha pasado casi 35 años y esos cuerpos estaban bien con la epoca.
No lo había visto. Entero, República Dominicana . mi tierra querida
Gano la mejor no era solo una cara bonita era actitud simpatia y con ese bello color
Felicia Mercado representando a México 👏🏻
Bellísima!!! Y Cantinflas quien apoyó a que este certamen fuera realizado en México para la difusión de hermoso MÉXICO ❤️
This is the year Janelle Commissiong won! What a BEAUTIFUL woman she was and still is.
BlakeBarbieDoll My mom named me after her
And I might add, the first black woman to be crowned Miss Universe before Vanessa Williams, Carole Gist, etc.
I swear that could have been Dionne Warwick going, "Oh my God!" around 1:43:00 when Miss T&T was among the final two left.
@@williamdunphy352 Vanessa Williams was never crowned Miss Universe. You mean Miss America or you mean Janelle won a beauty crown before any woman of color from the US?
@@louisescano3961They probably meant that Janelle Commisiong won Miss Universe before the very first black Miss America and Black Miss USA was crowned.
