Isis King made headlines as the first transgender contestant to compete on America's Next Top Model.
She didn't win the prize, but she served as an inspiration to many.
Host Tyra Banks took a particular interest in Isis' story, and offered to pay for King's final gender reassignment surgery after she was sent packing on America's Next Top Model.
On Monday's episode of The Tyra Banks Show, Isis makes her first public appearance since her transistion, and she's thrilled.
"I got the bathing suit issue out of the way," King tells Banks on the episode, according to Us Magazine. "I feel very confident and sexy." (Isis exited from Cycle 11 of ANTM after panicking about wearing a bathing suit during a swimming pool photo-shoot.)

Isis is very attractive and has a good sense of humor. I saw an episode of Rupaul's Drag Race yesterday. That's scary!
