Different is the new Normal

Shaun Ross

This is Shaun Ross (born on May 10th 1991). He is a professional fashion model best known for being the first male albino model. He has been featured in world famous magazines such as British GQ, Italian Vogue and ID Magazine. He has also had the pleasure of modelling for designers such as Alexander McQueen and Givenchy. 

This extraordinary man grew up in the Bronx and went to a school that was predominantly attended by African Americans. He was one of these students but was bullied because of how he looked. He was often called "powder" or "Casper" by his peers even though he was of the same race. The bullying became so bad and one day, he was stabbed in the back 7 times with a pen by another student. 
Now 21, Shaun has now gone on to star on many TV talk shows and was given the main role in Katy Perry's ET music video. This dude is a great example of how being different is a gift, not a burden.
