Teddy Geiger just made her first red carpet appearance after her gender transition.

In October of 2017 a fan asked Teddy Geiger on Instagram, “Tell us, why do you look different lately?”

The singer-songwriter’s answer was candid and, to many, a surprise.

“I am transitioning,” the 29-year-old wrote.

“I feel like the next step is to tell all y’all. So here goes… Love it or hate, this is who I have been for a looooong time.”
