Africa-Press – Lesotho. <\/strong><\/span>Young radio personality, taken into the world of fashion says he aspires to walk international ramps wearing some of the world\u2019s most expensive and well known outfits by respected designers. Lepoqo Bereng, aged 23 and trading by the name \u2018Tekky Lee\u2019, is a radio host, a model and fashion lover.<\/p>\n

\u2018Tekky Lee\u2019 attended St James and Phamong Primary Schools, then studied at St Patrick\u2019s High School and completed his schooling at the Limkokwing University of Creative Technology where he obtained his Associate Degree in Broadcasting Radio and TV in 2020.<\/p>\n

He began modeling back in 2016, saying he has always an unattractive gait growing \u2013 and people teased him about it. He says he, during his teens, started surfing the internet for best walks and postures to copy; there he discovered the best cat walks, not only that but he emulated and started moving like international star Naomi Campbell \u2013 the Queen of Catwalk.<\/p>\n

\u201cI started following her and watching her videos. I did that every night and people reacted positively to my news movement,\u201d Lepoqo says.<\/p>\n

His real break came in 2018 when he met a lady who invited him to join her in her planned fashion show, he recalls \u201cI slayed that ramp and that opened doors and opportunities for me because fashion designers approached me in large numbers following the event.<\/p>\n

\u201cModeling is like my second nature. The fact that I started as nothing but practiced till I became perfect made modeling a part of me\u2026I practiced and here I am. \u201d \u2018Tekky Lee\u2019 was previously a presenter at the state-owned Ultimate Radio and hopes to be back on radio anytime soon.<\/p>\n

He says he doesn\u2019t just want to be a radio presenter, \u201cbut the very best amongst best\u201d as he\u2019s working on perfecting his craft with people with longer experience in this industry.<\/p>\n

\u201cRadio is home to me, and I am passionate about it.<\/p>\n

\u201d He has also been a part of a modeling agency in which he was appointed director because of his exquisite modeling skills; he, however, quit for he did not feel fulfilled.<\/p>\n

He adds that he then joined another agency, \u201cthings also didn\u2019t work out as expected and I left. \u201d Then he decided to freelance. I am a freelancer at the moment, and I have a manager who manages my platforms and how I dress.<\/p>\n

I have it all, he continues. Bereng is a proud Lesbian, Gay, Transgender, Intersex and Queer LGBTIQ+ member and says he has no regard for negative criticism from the public.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople used to call me Somizi (South African socialite, dance choreographer and actor Somizi Mhlongo).<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I was on the ramp I find pleasure, and no matter what people call me it has never really mattered\u2026actually I like it, who doesn\u2019t want to be Somizi the successful entertainer?\u201d he mockingly asks.<\/p>\n

Lepoqo says, however, that he is sometimes touched by what people do to him because of his sexuality, but decides to keep quiet as he isn\u2019t much of a dramatic person.<\/p>\n

As a fashion lover he argues that for his style and dress sense to be attractive, appealing and extraordinary \u201cI don\u2019t have to dress like everybody else.<\/p>\n

\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe key point is to believe that confidence is the best outfit one could ever wear. Even if you go out in a simple t-shirt and jeans, if you wear them with confidence then you are still going to look amazing,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n

But this is not all about \u2018Tekky Lee\u2019; he says that he is still putting together a portfolio which he intends to send to South African modeling agencies because he wants to walk on international ramps in Louis Vuitton, Balenciaga and David Tlale outfits.<\/p>\n

Lepoqo believes there won\u2019t be much of a change in Lesotho in upcoming years in the fashion and entertainment industry, but \u201cI also yearn for this industry to thrive because it is likely going to contribute towards creating employment for the youth.<\/p>\n

It is a platform on which youth can create something for themselves. As for our government, it needs someone middle aged and fresh for fresh ideas and more change.<\/p>\n

\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cTekky Lee is a name derived from \u2018Tekky Lee Whingston\u2019 which I wanted it to be something related to American star Nicki Minaj because I have been her fan since 2013,\u201d he concludes.<\/p>\n
