Andrej Pejic is landing on a reality TV show about himself, giving a glimpse of his life as an androgynous model.

Pejic signed for the reality show in February, but production was delayed for various reasons, sources close to Pejic told Patty Huntington of Frockwriter.

The gender-bending model is currently filming the reality show in New York City, and Pejic will be closely followed as he goes around doing various job assignments over a period of weeks, the model’s New York management DNA confirmed to multiple media outlets.

“It’s still in the early stages, but yes, there is a show being developed around Andrej,” the rep told Fashionista.

NBC is believed to air the show which his mother Jadranka Pejin has also joined, according to The Herald Sun.

 

Andrej Pejic, who arrived at the fashion scenes in June 2010, has walked runways in female dresses and worn bikinis in front of cameras,

The high profile Serbian-Australian male model is quickly becoming the most desired model.

“I know people want me to sort of defend myself, to sit here and be like, ‘I’m a boy, but I wear makeup sometimes,’" the 20-year old said earlier in the year.

"But, you know, to me, it doesn’t really matter. I don’t really have that sort of strong gender identity — I identify as what I am. The fact that people are using it for creative or marketing purposes, it’s just kind of like having a skill and using it to earn money.”
