Sarah: Speaking of beauty... Lea T anyone?



So, I know you hadn't heard much about Lea T - and neither had I until stumbled accross an article about her in the Givenchy Ads, and realised she is a transgender model! (Quick update: Lea T was born Leandro Cezero - the son of a famous Brazilian Soccer star and worked as the PA to Ricardo Tisci until he cast her in his Fall 2010 Givenchy ads. Carine Roitfeld quickly saw her chance to push another boundary - and continue the fabulousness of French Vogue - and featured a nude photo of the Transgender model... the rest is history!)

Now, in the interest of not sounding ignorant or offending the rest of the world, I am not quite sure how I feel about this? I mean, Lea T is obviously super stunning and a perfect model (all long hair, long limbs and sexy androgyny) but I am not so comfortable with the thought that Lea T, the gorgeous woman who used to be a gorgeous man - is a prettier woman than me?! Haha. Jealous Much? Yes. Yes I am... Damn it.
