Niall Horan is now a MODEL! 

Niall Horan formerly known as "The Blonde One," or perhaps "The Irish One," in extremely popular boy-band One Direction—is now a genuine star in his own right. The lovely piece of Mullingar beef is now even more popular. 

Horan—who will soon tour the record—is also enjoying other benefits of solo pop stardom: Wilhelmina Models has signed Horan as a client, adding the singer to their list of other artists who now double as models (including Nicki Minaj, Shawn Mendes, Maren Morris, and more).

Niall said "I just kind of like fashion in general. I wouldn’t say I was a model. I’m far from that, but obviously Wilhelmina thinks different. It’s gonna be fun to see what happens. Now that it’s been put in front of me I’m just really excited about it to be honest."

Ines Rau has become the first openly transgender Playmate in Playboy magazine’s 64-year history. While Rau previously appeared in a May 2014 issue, the French model will grace the coveted centerfold spot in the November/December issue, a special 100-page tribute to the late Hugh Hefner.

"When I was doing this shoot, I was thinking of all those hard days in my childhood,” Rau recalls. “And now everything happening gives me so much joy and happiness. I thought, Am I really going to be a Playmate—me? It’s the most beautiful compliment I’ve ever received. It’s like getting a giant bouquet of roses."

Rau also commented on Playboy’s return to featuring nude models: “Nudity means a lot to me, since I went through a transition to get where I want to be. Nudity is a celebration of the human being without all the excess. It’s not about sexuality but the beauty of the human body, whether male or female.”
