The pageant in Manila was unaffected by a typhoon which had ravaged the island nation only days before. Spain's Amparo Muñoz won in 1974. During her champagne victory breakfast, the new Miss Universe joked to reporters: "With the way I am living like a queen, I might get used to it. In one year, I will have to look for a rich boyfriend." Unfortunately, Amparo did not finish her reign and became a soft porn star and made one movie in the Philippines. Today, Amparo is still a film star in Spain and in 1996 filmed three
movies. Runner-up Helen Morgan of Wales would later that year win the Miss World title only to be stripped of it as she was found to be an unwed mother.
