Sweden and Philippines have this innocent and unassuming auras, and a breath of fresh air. All of them have sparkles in their eyes. These ladies will put to shame the beauty queens of today.❤❤❤

I competed for Ms Puerto Rico in Paterson NJ in 1984 I was the only one who received a trophy saying Ms sympatia Its 2022 and I still have the trophy me looking at it now saying wow I can't believe I have something that brung me memories it was just so fun and exciting I also have pictures as well I was also in the parade people just waving I didn't win but I was so glad to participate I missed those days

The powerhouse countries today made it to the top 5 in Miss Universe 1984: Philippines, South Africa, Venezuela, and Colombia.

Miss universe 1983 Lorraine Downs from New Zealand is so beautiful

Power house country na pala dati pa! Sweden is the most beautiful. But I think South Africa gave the best answer. 🙂

Que hermosa la ganadora, realmente parece una princesa de cuentos. Las mises proyectaban esa dulzura e ingenuidad que ya no se ve en los concursos actuales.

07:15 and 17:18 is Miss India Juhi Chawla She couldn't place in this contest but went on to become a huge Bollywood star later on. She is working in films till date and is a producer as well

This is what I liked witg Bob Barker in the interview rounds. He made the girls at ease

How I wish, Miss Universe pageant will have the same presentation of scores by the judges to offer transparency and to avoid doubt.

USA is amerasian by birth half taiwanese american.. she represented both continent sa well...but Phils looks so exotic reminds me of Tetchie agbayani one of the prettiest faces in phil cinema...

I just wish that the MU today will return to this simple competition. After preliminaries to pick the semifinals, the contestants will bring down to 12 or 10 then a round of interview, swimsuit, and evening gown competition. Then they will be cut down to either 6(then to final 3) or final 5 for another round of interview with one question.

What i miss about the Miss Universe pageant are the little sisters i think is the most adorable.

Philippines has the second highest preliminary score here with 8.470 just after Sweden with 8.500. ❤️

Miss Guatemala was beautiful; after Miss Universe she went to Miss International and she Won!!

Miss Thailand was adorable in the top 10 interview 🌹😍

Came here to watch Juhi Chawla. Thanks for the video ❤️

And the irony of all of this is that Miss Colombia got the highest score in the personal interview of the semifinalists round, 9.2 , but ended as the 4th runner up (5th place).

El año 1984 era muy joven y vi este certamen , me acuerdo en invierno de Chile. Ahora casi tengo 61 años y me acuerdo aún. La representante de Suecia era muy linda, pero yo estaba por Colombia, ella debía haber ganado ese año. Hermosísima y sencilla!!!! Sauludos. al pueblo colombiano por que los quiero mucho. Soy de Chile!!! Aquí desde Copiapó Chile un saludo a Colombia y al mundo. Un gran abrazo 🤗😘🤗🤗😘❤❤❤!.

Colombia y Suecia que hermosas, parecian Angeles

Power na pala tlaga ang Philippines, Venezuela, Colombia at South Africa dati pa. Galing!!

the contestants are wearing REAL national costumes!

My most favorite opening of the 1980’s ❤️ One of the best editions too. Just when I thought a Latina could win because the show has a Latin vibe in Miami, a European got a crown. 🥰

Que mujer esta de Sweden. Iluminada. Perfecta. Una santa. Perfumada !

Miss South Africa should have won because she gave the best final answer.

I think Miss Colombia responded the best. Miss Sweden faltered and I m surprised that she won. Miss Colombia deserved the crown that year.

Miss Universe 1984 MU 👑 - Sweden Yvonne Ryding 1st run - South Africa 2nd run - Venezuela 3rd run - Philippines 4th run - Colombia

BOB BARKER IS A LEGENDARY HOST. . .ONE OF THE BEST . .REST IN PEACE

Poor Miss Venezuela, she didn't even get the chance to finish her answer...

No socmed.. . No plastic surgery...Natural genuine beauty...I'm only 2 years old that time....

Si chicas que quieran triunfar, es por eso eso que admiro mucho a éstas últimas señoritas Colombia por se han preparado súper bien para representar al país porque se le ha notado las ganas que han tenido de dejar al país en lo más alto.

1984 one of the European era at Miss U , 5 of them in the top 10 from Europe , eventual winner Sweden, with only two Latinas. 2016 only one European in top 13, dominated by the Americas with 9, but the eventual winner in that year is France.

25:32 Maria Desiree Verdadero representing the Philippines is on the semifinalist spot and after the two of her fellow relatives, in 2003 Maria Rafaela "Mafae" Yunon finished Miss World 2003 Top 5 finalist and 2019 Maria Andrea "Aya" Verdadero Abesamis as a runner-up of Binibining Pilipinas pageant.

Philippines has had the biggest chance of becoming miss universe if she's not that nervous especially in the final interview... gratz still for making us proud.. 😊

Things that I liked about this pageant: 1. Candidates wore their actual national costume (no huge birds on their heads) 2. They walked naturally on the stage. Unlike walks these days that I find so unnatural and weird 3. Gowns used to be elegant. Nowadays, it seems that the more blindingly shiny it is and the more skin you show, the better Things i didn't like in this show 1. The throne (glad they got rid of it) 2. The host blocking the final 5 while announcing the runners up

Wow! Colombia definitely was the most gorgeous of them all.

Colombia, venezuela, Philippines and South Africa are strongest countries

Miss guatamela ended winning ms. Internarional that year

Sweden is everlasting beauty Humble and has a beautiful ♥

Gosh, Yvonne is so beautiful!😍😭

Miss Holland was ahead of her time.

Susana Caldas bellísima rostro y una miss universo sentimental, el top 5 perfecto y la ganadora también muy bella ojalá este año gane una rubia miss universo

There really is only one word to sum up Miss U.S.A. ............."Annoying"

La época en que las chicas eran naturalmente bellas, completamente elegantes, sin necesidad de hacer tanto gesto ridiculo, sin pararse como si tuvieran problemas en la pelvis, sin hacer muecas y sin dar tanta vuelta que parecen mareadas como las de hoy dia. Esta era la época dorada y maravillosa del Miss Universo, donde el espectaculo era variado, magico, lleno de escenografías espectaculares, no como ahora que solo son monitores y muchas luces super aburrido. Hasta la corona de antes era espectacular, la de ahora parece una de juguete de quinceañera. Ojala volviera un Miss Universo tan espectacular como estos, donde las chicas se comportaban natural si pasar toda la competencia haciendo lives por los celulares. Que viva esta época!!!!!

Sweeden hair is like she just wake up from bed. 😂

Miss Norway was so beautiful. She deserved to be in the top 10.

South Africa wouldve been the winner if the basis was the final Q&A just like these days

I was voting for Miss Holland and Miss Colombia

Puntuaciones preliminares de haber sido top 20 . 8.110 Noruega 7.740 Finlandia 7.680 Panamá 7.603 Gales 7.560 costa rica 7.560 trinidad y tobago 7.460 Perú 7.440 Austria 7.435 Israel 7.408 Uruguay Peores 5 puntuaciones preliminares 6.430 aruba 6.390 marianas del norte 6.210 belice 6.195 barbados 6.010 turcas y caicos ( pintoresca)

*Spoiler Alert* In the final question (Top 5), Sweden and Philippines should have used interpreters. This year was an example showing that it's best and wise to use an interpreter especially when it's the crucial moments. There's nothing wrong with it if English is not their native language. In fact, it shows Sweden could have had a few more winners if they had used interpreters. The Scandinavian countries and Germany tend to do this and it hurt them.

Columbia is the best beauty and brain

I think that on the morning of this particular Miss Universe Pageant telecast, I was out having my senior pictures taken for Helix High School's Class of 1985 yearbook, The Tartan. GO HELIX HIGHLANDERS!!!! :) :) :) :)

Miss Venezuela And Miss Sweden Are Always In FrontRunner in 1984❤ Miss Venezuela 1984 Carmen María Montiel And Miss Sweden Areyvonne ryding Are Always In evry Round 1st and 2nd placement 🇻🇪🇸🇪❤

South Africa 🇿🇦. An Afrikaner national costume

The final five were favourites, but it was clear a part of the audience was shocked and not happy when Miss Colombia was announced as fourth runner-up only. You could hear their jeering.

Miss Guatemala was shy but so sweet. Ohhh and on the same year she was the winner of Miss International. Well done lovely Julieta

De las 5 elegidas, eliminaron de golpe a las más negras Filipinas, Colombia y Venezuela, quedaron las bellas blancas, rubias y ojos claros 😂😂😂

GERMANY , SWEDEN THE BEST BEAUTIFUL WOMEN, GERMANY COULD BE THE WINNER, SHE WAS SO STUNNING,,,

"I hope the beautiful Scandinavian country of Sweden can have their 4th Miss Universe win someday !!! European MU Winners are the best of all the time... Armi Kuusela, Marlene Schmidt, Corinna Tsopei, Amparo Muñoz, Yvonne Ryding, Angela Visser, Mona Grudt, Oxana Federova and Iris Mittenaere my favorite MU Winners..."

7:36 Korea so cute ❤️

9:08 - Garbiñe Abasolo, Miss Spain and Miss Photogenic; and when she speaks, she has a big message with the name of her prize. That message covers her face. She was Miss Photogenic, we want to see her face 😂

Based on the final answer the crown should have gone to South Africa followed by Colombia, Venezuela, Sweden and Philippines. Sweden stumbled through the final answer horribly. Bob did not let Miss Venezuela finish her thought. Miss USA that year is probably a very nice lady but she did not do well here. Her interview sealed her fate. She came across too over rehearsed and the judges saw that.

Sweden deserved it! It was a good show!

When miss universe is still big in the US. Fyi. Mss America has higher viewers than the Olympics back then 😊

La mas bella del evento Lucia Mendez a sus 30 añitos

Greetings from Costa Rica 40 years ago when our Miss Costa Rica Silvia Portilla Pastor went to Miss Universe Miami

Yvonne s one of to the very best ❤️

OK, I'm 40 yrs late watching this. LOL!! BUt I skipped all the way to the end, and just for facial beauty, I thought South Africa was the most BEAUTIFUL! Yeah, I am shallow! LOL!!

This is one of the best openings, the music is very lively. Thou many openings in the 80s are remarkable but the music used in this opening got me LSS. 😂

MS Papua New Guinea ❤❤❤

Miss Colombia should have won. Thailand should have been in the top five. Sweden was very sweet and pretty, Philippines very nice too, but I thought Colombia deserved the crown.

Mga candidates noong 80's mukhang mga nanay na. 🤣🤣🤣

Beautiful Sweden

In the preliminary swimsuit competition Miss Colombia received just 7.2, very low compared to other South American contestants. She must have scored very high in the preliminary interview and evening gown competitions.

This is a resl pageant, unlike today.....so many unnecessary videos and chit chats, and worst of all......platform. For cry out loud, a beauty pageant does’nt need platform.

La colombiana es hermosísima. Que vergüenza que México en esos años enviara puros adefesios que ganaban por negociaciones con gobiernos estatales y que Raul Velasco convirtiera el concurso Señorita México en un concurso de garnacheras con escenografías de cartón y trajes de baño y vestidos de noche de lo más corrientes. En verdad en los 80s hubo concursos Señorita México en donde les ponian vestidos mal cortados, con peluches corrientes y con plumas de avestruz en la cabeza y en el 83 a algunas de las concursantes se les asomaba la raya de la cola a través del traje de baño tan de mal calidad que les hacían ponerse. Hay una horrenda la Monica Rosas de Durango horrendísima de la cara que ganó en 1983 por intervención del gobernador de su estado y la de este año 1985, con las mandibulas desviadas y los dientes salidos y ni siquiera le pagaron el tratamiento de ortodoncia y endodoncia... ¡¡¡que horror con México!!!

Guatemala top 10 😮

Miss Uruguay so beautiful, but didn't make top 10.

Ang ganda ni MISS PHILIPPINES 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭

Que grandes años de mujeres libres, sin operar y bellezones.

8:42 "..and I need more hair.."

Wao Cilinia Prada periodista presentadora de noticias Mis Asia Pacífico 1987. Mis Panamá.

Lucia Mendez was so beautiful.

Miss South Africa had the best final answer. Miss Sweden choked and still won.

You can really feel the energy with past Miss Universe shows!! the excitement, the class and Bob Barker!

Miss Germany lookalike bond girl 🎉

Min 5:53 Miss Colombiaaa beautiful!!!

Wow I can't believe this was 40 years ago, just incredible

DESIREE VERDADERO MISS PHILIPPINES❤❤❤❤❤

COLOMBIA BEAUTIFUL! OMG! STUNNIG!

Miss colombia face love ❤️

si colombia o venexuela hubieran contestado en ingles cualquiera de las dos hubiera ganado, pero la que traducia no lo hizo bien y se quedaron en el camino, tanto colombia como venezuela

ปีเกิดเราเลย1984

It was a hugh injustice what Miss Norway not was selected like finalist

Based on the final question, Sweden has the most stupidly ridiculous answer! But she won! Duh, Miss Universe is a business indeed! 😂

Hit Like For Juhi Chawla ❤️

MISS USA was way to aggressive with her answers and went full throttle ... BAD, just bad.

Tons of great prizes back then, not to mention TRANSPARENCY …

Juhi chawla says namaste wow

Colombia.!!!
