This is the former Buddhist monk who is now a successful transgender lingerie model.
Mimi Tao, 22, is well known in Asia where she stars in everything from major advertising campaigns to high-end fashion shows.
But this glamorous lifestyle is a far cry from her early days, as a shaven headed monk living in a remote temple.
Mimi was born as Phajaranat Nobantao, a boy, into a well-off family in Khon Kaen, eastern Thailand.
While her siblings were at the local public school, Mimi was packed off to live in a temple far from home.
