It’s not every day—or every year, rather—that the Philippines wins Miss Universe. As of 2024, there have only been four Filipina winners of the highly coveted crown: Gloria Diaz in 1969, Margie Moran in 1973, Pia Wurtzbach in 2015, and Catriona Gray in 2018. And it’s also not every day that all four Filipinas grace one stage and appear in one photo. Well, that is until yesterday, July 7, which was Binibining Pilipinas’ 60th anniversary and coronation night at the—where else?—Araneta Coliseum. It’s been a long time coming, but they’re finally all in the same pic!


Binibining Pilipinas posted the sure-to-be-iconic photo on their Facebook page, with the caption, “The power this photo holds.” And they’re right—they’re all still queens even long after their reign.

It wasn’t just the four Miss Universe winners who reunited at the event. Over 100 Binibining Pilipinas’ past titleholders also graced the event, including Miss International 1979 Melanie Marquez and Miss International 2016 Kylie Verzosa.
