Vogue Williams Reckons People Think She Looks Like A Man

Vogue Williams is clearly a fully fledged female model, right? It's not hard to tell that she is a woman from well, you know, her entire appearance, but she reckons people don't always guess her gender correctly. Yep, Vogue Williams has been mistaken for a man.

The RTÉ star said she was filming documentary series On The Edge last year where she met people from all walks of life from those obsessed with fitness to homeless people to those in the transgender community.

Vogue went to Trans Odyssey, a huge trans convention in Seattle and a trans person thought she was a very convincing trans woman. I guess that's a compliment?

“I was filming with this trans man – he used to be a woman – and he said to my director, ‘So when did Vogue start?'” she told Tommy Tiernan on his new show last night.

“I sound a bit like a boy, I’m very, very tall and I have big hands so I got it!".

She's a good sport. So much so that she was also mistaken for a handball player by Tommy.

“Let me guess now – you’re a handball player?” he said, because he has no idea who the most famous person in Ireland is. How dare he.
