Thailand’s most famous transgender person performs only two to four times a year at the daily Tiffany’s Cabaret Show.

But last Friday and Saturday, Singaporeans were lucky to catch the celebrity at the transgender show’s first-ever outing here.

Treechada Malayaporn, nicknamed Poy, is flawless in person and she wowed the 4,300-strong crowd on both nights.

The 27-year-old model-actress, who is 1.8m tall and weighs 50kg, has been proposed to many times by Thai men.

Just what makes Poy so special in the eyes of the Thai people?
