Lea T

Born in Brazil as 'Leo', Lea T worked as a fitness model and assistant to Givenchy creative director Riccardo Tisci before the designer decided to feature her in his campaign. Now featured in Vanity Fair, Vogue Paris and Givenchy advertisements, Lea T seems poised to become the first transgendered supermodel.

A real BIG thank you for starting this thread! I hope she will go far in this "ugly" business that is fashion without burning her wings... I love her androgenic look but yet very feminine.

The Sun UK:

A FRENCH fashion house has caused a stir after announcing its latest stunning supermodel signing used to be a MAN.

Brazilian bombshell Lea T was plucked from the backroom staff of posh fashion giant Givenchy to star in its ad campaigns.

The leggy brunette — born a man called Leandro Cerezo — will also soon appear in Italian Vanity Fair and has posed naked for French Vogue.

Lea, 28, is currently having hormone replacement therapy before undergoing a sex change operation.

The beauty said the transformation has meant she has been shunned by her strict Catholic family — including her dad — former Brazil international footballer Toninho Cerezo.

The model said her father "doesn't even like to touch on this matter".

But she has remained positive saying: "The choice is between being unhappy forever or trying to be happy."

Givenchy's creative director, Riccardo Tisci, said of Lea: "She's a true goddess.

"She's always been very feminine - super-fragile, very aristocratic."

Oh that kind of comment... <_<

Beautiful face. Especially the first pic is wonderful, I never thought she was a man before when I looked at that pic, from the other pics its a bit more noticeable. But still, pretty.

I adore this guy

Oh that kind of comment... <_<

aawww, come one, kiki... give the girl a break!i mean, she is cradling her cock and balls in the vogue paris pic, no??

all jokes aside, this girl is truly amazing... in the nude pic, she reminds me of a slightly less exotic Lakshmi M.

its is rad to the Nth degree that a transgendered gal is in such a major campaign.

the times, they are a'changin =thank the goddess for that=
