He chose Rihanna as his new look because of the singer’s femininity, sexiness and successful career.

Shaqua Lee, a male student living in London (UK), admitted to his family that he wanted to become a woman.

When he was 16 years old, Lee, who looked like a boy, was diagnosed with gender identity disorder. This allowed Lee to legally recognize and change his gender. As she began hormone treatment in the first months, Lee said she had been waiting for this moment since she was a child.

The girl also shared that music idol Rihanna was the one who gave her the confidence to openly talk about her sexuality. Lee loves Rihanna’s style in all aspects, from outfits, hairstyles and sexy personality. Therefore, the girl was determined to “turn” herself into an idol after the transformation process ended. “Rihanna is my inspiration. She is an amazing idol who is feminine, sexy and extremely successful. When you are transitioning, it is hard to imagine what you will look like when “I’m a woman. Rihanna helped me visualize my image,” Lee happily said.

Rihanna is a musical idol and also the person who gives Lee the confidence to live true to his gender.

In addition, Lee spent more than 5,000 pounds (about 161 million VND) shopping for new clothes and wigs, all in Rihanna’s style. “Doing makeup like hers makes me more confident about my gender change. Rihanna is a beautiful and amazing singer so why wouldn’t I follow her style?”, Lee speak.

The girl admires her idol so passionately that she considers her love a religion. Whenever the idol changes her hairstyle, she rushes to buy herself an identical wig.
