5. Venus Raj, Miss Universe (2010)

Question: “What is one big mistake in your life and what did you do to make it right?

Answer: “In my 22 years of existence, I can say that there is nothing major, major, I mean, problem that I’ve done in my life. I am very confident with my family, with the love that they are giving to me. Thank you so much that I am here, thank you, thank you so much.”

This job interview question is occasionally used to reveal the candidate’s truest self by how they perceive the “one big mistake” part.

Venus Raj may not have bagged the title, but she garnered some global attention due to her “major major” answer. Aside from that, she also placed the country back to the beauty pageant scene as the country continued to earn its positions and crowns on the succeeding years.
