Rachel Song: The Chinese Barbie Queen Taking the World by Storm
In today’s world of fashion and entertainment, few figures shine as brightly as Rachel Song. Known to the public as the “Chinese Barbie Queen” due to her striking resemblance to the iconic doll, Rachel’s all-natural waist-to-hip ratio of 0.55 is just one of her many claims to fame. This Chinese Canadian sensation is an international supermodel, sought-after beauty queen, influencer with viral success, and rising actress.
Rachel’s accolades speak volumes about her influence in the modeling world. She was honored with the 2024 Influential Model of The Year Award by the International Celebrity Awards during the Cannes Film Festival. She also secured the 3rd place for Best Female Model 2023, awarded by Waves and Runways Magazine and International Fashion Magazine, and won the Fashion & Style People’s Choice Award at the Toronto Waterfront Awards.
Her success extends beyond the runway to the pageant stage. Rachel first captured the title of Mrs. China USA in January 2023, followed by Mrs. Photogenic at the 35th Asia USA, Europe Global & Latina Global in November 2023, and was crowned Ms. Canada World in 2024.
As a global influencer, Rachel leverages her extensive network to promote the International Peace Festival, originally initiated in Toronto, and now expanding globally under her guidance as VP of Global Development. Her influence isn’t just limited to modeling and pageantry; Rachel is also making waves in Hollywood. Represented by Firestone Talent Management in Hollywood and Rasta Phil Entertainment in Canada, she has caught the attention of famous Hollywood producers like Ceci Cleary and Andy Gould. Hollywood heavyweights are not the only ones captivated by Rachel. Steve Erhardt, Michael Jackson’s longtime hair & makeup artist, took Rachel under his wing, mentoring her and preparing her for the fame that she is quickly amassing.
Rachel’s journey from politics to fashion is nothing short of inspiring. Discovered in July 2022 at a Toronto fashion show, she quickly transitioned from a career in politics and journalism to the glitz and glam of the runway. By October 2022, she was modeling alongside Miss Toronto and Miss Hong Kong and working for brands like L’Oréal Redken.
Her transition into Hollywood was marked by her participation in the LA Model Showcase, where she competed against much younger models and secured a three-year contract with Bounty Models in Beverly Hills, a testament to her talent and perseverance. Before her meteoric rise, Rachel’s life was rooted in hard work and determination. An MBA graduate from the University of Ottawa, she built a career in Canadian politics, holding significant roles such as Chief of Staff for a Member of Provincial Parliament and federal election campaign manager. Her journey from political aid to the brand ambassador for major couture brands like KH Luxury and Berri’N Couture highlights her versatility and relentless drive. Rachel’s stunning presence has been featured in prestigious publications worldwide, including Grazia, Daily Mail, InStyle Magazine, ExtraTV, and Yahoo News. Her impeccable style and eye-catching figure make her a standout at star-studded events like the Elton John Oscar bash and the Primetime Emmys Governors Ball. A video of her at the 75th Emmys Governors Ball went viral, amassing 12 million views on TikTok and Instagram within three months.
Rachel continues to break barriers and inspire women everywhere, with a career defined by a pattern of overcoming obstacles and achieving greatness. With audiences demanding more diversity in talent, Rachel Song’s future is undoubtedly bright, promising new heights for her and those who follow in her footsteps.

Dire warnings at Davos, pushed to the periphery

	By David Gelles

All week at the World Economic Forum’s annual gathering in Davos, Switzerland, talk about climate change and renewable power has been relegated to the sidelines.

That changed on Wednesday, when President Trump used his speech at this gathering of the world’s top business leaders and policymakers to attack clean energy.

“There are windmills all over Europe,” he said. “There are windmills all over the place and they are losers.”

That was just one snippet from a speech in which Trump assailed the “green new scam,” promoted fossil fuels and made inaccurate statements about China’s use of coal.

Trump’s assault on renewable energy struck a discordant note at an event that was once a center for the corporate climate movement. But since Trump’s re-election Davos has strained to retain an idealistic, optimistic spirit.

For years, Davos was where chief executives and heads of state came to make high-minded pledges about how they would use their power to transform the world for the better and reduce dangerous planet-warming emissions.

Recently, however, the focus on climate change and stopping biodiversity loss has taken a back seat to issues like cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence and geopolitics. Instead, talk about sustainability efforts and climate action is now largely relegated to the scientists and activists.

Jennifer Morris, chief executive of The Nature Conservancy, told me that the dialogue in Davos had some glaring blind spots. “We’re not talking enough about oceans here,” she said, citing one example.

“Water is not woke,” she added.

Corporations are suddenly silent

The explanation for Davos’s pivot is simple. Climate change is no longer center stage in Davos because, in large measure, corporations have gone quiet on the issue.

“The Davos programming is a reflection of what chief executives want to talk about, ultimately,” said Sebastian Buckup, who runs the World Economic Forum’s center for nature and climate.

And what C.E.O.s want to talk about has changed.

Six years ago, Larry Fink, the chief executive of BlackRock, the world’s largest asset manager, used his time in Davos to rally Wall Street to combat climate change, promising to “transform finance.”

In an article I published last week, I explained how Fink sparked a movement that came to encompass most of the major banks, asset managers and asset owners in the world, which pledged to used their trillions of dollars to try and blunt global warming.

But in the face of pushback from Republicans, the fallout from the war in Ukraine and the return of President Trump to the White House, Wall Street has largely abandoned its climate pledges. Many of the alliances designed to make finance more sustainable have fallen apart. Investors have withdrawn tens of billions of dollars each quarter from E.S.G. funds.

Even though Fink is now co-chair of the World Economic Forum and took a strong hand in shaping this year’s program, which features hundreds of panels and speakers scattered across giant convention halls and small meeting rooms, discussion of climate change was largely missing from the most prominent programs — with the exception of Trump’s remarks.

Warnings from scientists

On the rare occasions when there was frank talk about the dangers posed by our rapidly warming world, the warnings were more stark than ever.

Johan Rockström, director of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, delivered a presentation on Tuesday in which he showed dozens of ways in which the planet’s natural systems are under severe strain.

“The human pressure on the planet has now reached a crisis point,” he said. “The era where we can continue with economic growth without putting the stability of planet at risk has come to an end.”

Rockström added that “these pressures on the planet are now at risk of causing irreversible, potentially catastrophic tipping points.”

On Wednesday, I moderated a panel about why it was in companies’ own interest to protect nature.

“If you don’t have good land and good soil, you can’t have sustainable supply chains,” Kirsten Schuijt, director general of WWF International told me.

Schuijt said that more corporations were working to address these threats, but not fast enough. “It’s moving way too slow, because we’re losing biodiversity in basically every place we care about,” she said.

Then on Thursday, I hosted a discussion about how much economic activity was tied to the oceans, which are warming rapidly regardless of whether you think talking about it is “woke.”

For much of the conversation, the speakers put forward a rosy vision of continued economic growth that somehow didn’t pollute the planet. Then, during a remarkably candid moment, an executive acknowledged a notion that until recently had been gospel at Davos.

“The biggest adversary to nature might be humans,” said Boudewijn Siemons, chief executive of the Port of Rotterdam, the largest harbor in Europe. “The problem is us.”

Cheap green tech exports out of China are starting to substantially change the economic development trajectory of some countries, Somini Sengupta and Brad Plumer report from Belém.

“China has sought to cast itself as a pillar of global stability,” they write, “particularly after the Trump administration said it would withdraw the United States from the annual climate talks.”

The result is that drivers in countries like Vietnam, Nepal and Ethiopia are opting for electric vehicles over combustion engines, and places all over the world have begun installing solar arrays made with Chinese equipment.

(We’ve been reporting all year about China’s clean energy boom, including how it’s leaving the U.S. behind in nuclear development, clean energy patents and building out ultra high-voltage power lines. Read more from our series.)

Yet much of China’s clean tech manufacturing boom has been powered by a parallel expansion in coal, so its emissions have continued to increase.

But the rapid pace of China’s clean energy installations may be flattening that curve: its emissions are projected to rise by just 0.4 percent this year, or even fall slightly, Plumer reports.
