Our Hump Day Hottie this week is a bit of an unconventional one, y’ready?

19-year-old Chantelle Young is a contestant on this year’s America’s Next Top Model (season 21, JEEZUS), and stands out for one very obvious reason: she has vitiligo. Vitiligo causes depigmentation of parts of the skin, and Chantelle’s is a pretty obvious case. It just so happens, though, that the skin condition might actually make her even more beautiful. Check it:

The gorgeous Canadian woman, who calls herself the “spokesmodel for vitiligo,” is obviously super hot, but we also give her props for giving hope to the millions who are affected by a very difficult-to-hide medical issue. She shows you don’t have to be embarrassed by differences, and can in fact embrace them!

We know this is a bit more of a corny Hump Day Hottie post than you’re used to, but we were amazed by how brave (and admittedly, totally bangin’) Chantelle is, and just had to share. Hey Chantelle! Congrats on being our Hump Day Hottie of the Week!

Keep it up!
