With Nellys Pimentel's victory at Miss Earth 2019; the island territory joins Brazil, the Philippines and Venezuela to make a quartet of countries that have won each of the BIG FOUR pageants.
Not only that, Puerto Rico also became only the second country, next to the Philippines, to have swept what Missosology considers as the Big5Pageants.
