Sisters Make History: Meet first Cuban siblings to simultaneously win national titles
Havana, Cuba – A historic milestone in Cuban pageantry has been achieved as two sisters, Rachel Chang and Jennifer Chang, have been crowned to represent Cuba at two of the most prestigious international beauty pageants in the world.
In a dazzling coronation ceremony filled with culture and elegance, the sisters made history as the first Cuban siblings to simultaneously hold national beauty titles. The event was held on August 16 in Hialeah Gardens, Florida.
Rachel Chang, Miss Earth Cuba 2025, is a bilingual attorney, author, award-winning journalist, and former NFL cheerleader.
With her advocacy "Silver Lining" which was inspired by her book The Little Fire Princess, Rachel is dedicated to empowering children and youth by encouraging them to embrace their inner fire to inspire change, heal, and shine.
She will represent Cuba at the 25th anniversary edition of the Miss Earth pageant, a global platform promoting environmental protection and sustainability. Miss Earth 2025 will be held this November in the Philippines.
Jennifer Chang, The Miss Globe Cuba 2025, radiated in red as she received her crown and sash. She will proudly carry the Cuban flag later this year in Albania for The Miss Globe 2025 world finals, where beauty, culture, and international friendship are celebrated.
Together, the Chang sisters are not only symbols of Cuban beauty but also of resilience, culture, and sisterhood—uniting their voices on two world stages.
"This is a proud moment for Cuba," said Fatima Coello, National Director of Nuestra Belleza Nacional Cuba. "Having two sisters represent our nation at such a high level is truly historic and a testament to the talent and determination of Cuban women."
The queens will now prepare for a year filled with appearances, cultural events, and international engagements as they head toward their respective competitions.
