She became a household name after a compelling appearance on The Oprah Winfrey Show<\/em><\/a> and now, transgender model Lea T has landed a swimwear campaign for hip Brazilian brand Blue Man. The 28-year-old made a splash on the runway during the Fashion Rio Summer 2012 event in Brazil Wednesday, working the catwalk in a colorful bikini. Later, she posed in a snakeskin printed, cutaway suit paired with denim hot pants, according to U.K.\u2019s Telegraph<\/a><\/em>. On Tuesday, T was spotted on a beach in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, shooting Blue Man\u2019s 2012 swim campaign with a host of sexy male models, as famed photographer Terry Richardson snapped away. This isn\u2019t T\u2019s first foray into the world of high fashion, however; she starred in a sultry ad campaign for Givenchy and has walked in runway shows for Brazilian designer Alexandre Herchcovitch. \u2013Kim Peiffer<\/em><\/p>\n
