Out have chosen Andrej Pejic as one of their Out100, which is their "annual salute to the year's most inspiring people". He poses naked, covered in a snake as part of the honor, and also speaks candidly about being taken seriously as a model. Andrej, who was voted "Stylemaker of the Year" says he has to work harder than any other model:
"The truth is I have to work twice as hard to be taken seriously," while he also hints that some male models may be attracted to him - including the straight models, while Andrej remains silent about his own preferences: “Most male models have girlfriends, but backstage, when no one is looking, they like to pinch me.” Mugler Creative Director Nicola Formichetti also features in the list - he holds up two meat carcasses for his portrait, and speaks on opening up fashion to the world: "I'm not an elitist, I want everyone to share what we're about."
