Have you ever wandered what an angel would look like as a model in 2009? No? Was that just me? OK, well Shaun Ross is my answer. I had no idea there was a market for an African American albino male model but now that there is, I'm getting a frequent shopper card. Shaun is represented by djameemodels located in downtown NYC. Shaun has been doing mostly runway since 2008 ranging from H&M's Comme de Garçons collection and Dos Komitee in Germany, to Gap (who btw has been very, VERY diversified lately). He also has been featured on a few European covers (Mykro-Amsterdam; LURVE-Berlin). At 17 years old and 6'1" Shaun sports the teenage angst look way better than I have seen in a long time (sorry Mandy). Born in the Bronx, he attends high school in upstate NY. And his eye color changes along with his mood! Goddamn, I'm captivated already and all I have to go by are his stats. He has been tagged as alot of things: futuristic robot, alien, god-sent prodigy, etc etc. but he has remained immune to it and continues to focus on his career. Realistically speaking, in a world where Tyson Beckford is considered the standard for male black models, Shaun has some work to do, but CHAOS-MAG supports this kid all the way! Thumbs up for being uniquely beautiful and breaking male model stereotypes. Thumbs down for being cooler than me.
