Rachel Bloom , who won the 2016 Golden Globe Award for Lead TV Comedy Actress, made the  announcement backstage at the Sunday's Golden Globes (January 10, 2016). "One of our characters happens to be Filipino (Vincent Rodriguez III) so when we realized no one else had even made the effort to show a Filipino family on an American comedy, it taught me a lot about Filipino culture," Bloom said. "It also taught me really about how important diversity is, if you want to tell a new story." Meanwhile, Miss Universe 2015 Pia Wurtzbach meets Leah Salonga on the backstage of Allegiance . Here is a photo of Wurtzbach and Salonga which was taken after the show.
