I'm not sure how/why it's featured in a newspaper as the story isn't uncommon (hey, it is The Sun) but I guess this goes to the adage, all publicity is good publicity ... or not?

Check him out! Tesco supermarket till boy now a leggy model called Lisa
GEEKY checkout worker Antony Owen is making bags of cash - after transforming himself into a leggy model called Lisa.
Spotty teen Antony Owen had dreamt of getting out from behind the Tesco till but never had chance until he became Lisa Heart - the transgender model.
Now Lisa - who has 34 inch long legs - is making a living from glamorous photo shoots and artistic portraits and she’s even become a hit with the men.
The 32-year-old, from Leighton Buzzard, Herts, said: “I was 18 when I realised that I was meant to be a woman, and it was another year before I could tell anyone.
“It wasn’t the easiest conversation to have with any one, especially my parents.
“But when I finally told them they were really supportive.
“I think my mum had figured it out anyway, but my dad was surprisingly ok with it.”
Leggy Lisa - who drives a replica of 80s TV car Kitt from Knight Rider - has been modelling for the last 10 years after she attended a shoot with a friend when she was 21.
She recalled: “I instantly forgot working at Tesco for the rest of my life - being a model was what I wanted to do.”
Lisa - who admits plenty of men are interested in her - said she plans to keep her genitalia.
She added: I’m lucky though because my features are quite feminine anyway.
“I don’t even want to have my male genitalia removed as it defeats the object of what I am trying to achieve.
“I want transgender models to be respected for what we are, and for what we are to be considered normal.”
