(at a talk show after her break-up with Derek Dee, Melanie was asked if she
had some words for Derek's mother, whom she partly blamed for the
separation) "Oo nga," said Melanie, "pero i-English-in ko para maintindihan
niya." She looked into the camera and, with the peremptoriness of royalty,
said, "And to you, Mrs. Dee, I have two words for you. Ang labo mo!"

(when asked for a message to her daughter who was allegedly abused by their houseboy) "Don't worry little angel, big angel is here."(on what they should do to the houseboy who molested her kid) "He should be put behind bar!"

"You can fool me once, you can even fool me twice, you can even fool me thrice. But you can never fool me four!"

(while waiting backstage during a noontime show, after watching Nikki Valdez do her dance number) "Nikki, you're so galing. You should go to the States. You will sell hotcakes!"

"Alam mo Ate Ludz, you know, when you are alone, you really have to istep your foot...ah ,forward!"

Eddie Mercado: "Angie Dickinson has insured her legs for a million dollars, would you also do the same?" Melanie: "No, of course no, because I am proud and contented with my long-legged." With this answer, she bagged the crown and eventually won the Miss International in 1978.
