Brazilian model Valentina Sampaio is breaking yet another glass ceiling — this time a pink-colored, glam-drenched, fantasy-fueled ceiling put up by the $7 billion lingerie empire Victoria’s Secret.

The 22-year-old 5-foot-9, green-eyed, full-lipped beauty is the first transgender model to pose for the iconic brand, who has given wings — literally — to some of the world’s biggest models, such as Gisele Bündchen, Heidi Klum and Tyra Banks.

Sampaio is the daughter of a school teacher and a fisherman from Aquiraz — a small coastal city in the northeast of Brazil, located 1,610 miles north of Rio de Janeiro. On Thursday she posted on Instagram a behind-the-scenes look at a photoshoot for PINK, the brand’s more playful line, marketed to younger customers.

“Wow finally!” the actress and LGBTQ advocate Laverne Cox wrote.

She is not the first trans model to break into modeling; there have been many others, and some of them were “out” and some didn’t revile that they were trans until latter in their careers.

I wrote about it a couple of years back… “Breaking New Ground?”

There are a number of trans models that are appearing on magazine covers and the headlines declares they are breaking new ground.

I remember when Caroline (Tula) Cossey was outed by then British press and was divorced by her husband when it became public.
