She's the first transgender ever having a Grammy & 50 million monthly listeners....

[pragyasingh]

PLS can people know her for MOREEE than just "Unholy", she's SO GOOD

[tonifamfam]

she actually went to my school! Of course way before my year, but one of my teachers told us that she was much liked by teachers and a good student too

[voarexxx]

Cannot express my genuine happiness for Kim's success story.

[queen_arend]

Why can't people just be happy for her instead of being transphobic

[ColinsCity]

This was big news not just in Germany but in wider europe, she was invited to the UK to be on talk shows and she was releasing music even then, if you watch her 2009 This Morning interview they seem so condescending when she talks about her musical aspirations and now that male presenter is absolutely cancelled and Kim is having a great year.

She’s a legend, she’s an icon and SHE IS THE MOMENT

Okay but how was she able to just move to LA? It must have been more than 500 dollars, I mean girls gotta live somewhere and pay rent

[aw]

She was pretty big in Germany before moving to LA.

[tinaismamama]

I’m just now finding out that she’s trans!!!

[BluePrintBlondie]

Wendy Carlos was the first trans woman to win a Grammy...

[smallfire]

I never knew she was transgender until the Grammys. That's a big win!

[DeathnoteBB]

It’s only called cologne if it’s made in the Cologne region of Germany, otherwise it’s sparkling perfume

[Iam_only_human]

What an amazing model for this generation!

[NuclearDarkvoid]

She's beautiful and looks amazing

I'm so happy for her and I wish her the best in the future 👏

[Satanna.avemaria]

She was on tv in Britain as well. This morning. I can’t believe it was that long ago tbh but she’s come
So far now ❤️

[marckid]

I honestly never would guess she was trans had she not said anything.

[avakellygreen]

I'm sooo very proud of her she's come so very she's never quit despite all her challenges

[totoro]
