Sir Maejor decided to go into the acting and modeling arena because he wanted to take the world by storm. He is known for standing up for what is right, being different, setting tends and being original. Everyone want the money and the fame, but Sir Maejor wants to use his notoriety to create positive awareness for a topic that really doesn’t get discussed.
Growing Up
Suffering from Albinism is difficult, and many decide to suffer quietly, and to live quiet lives. As a child and young adult, Sir Maejor suffered from the same taunts and stereotypes that many albinos do growing up. He often got talked about, teased and taunted because he has albinism. Sometimes even the word albino offends him, depending on how people use it. Kids and adults can be cruel, he has been negatively called Michael Jackson, Ray Charles, Other, Powder, White Out, Casper, Yellowman, Lab Rat, Rat Boy, Shaun Ross, and Similac. Because those names were maliciously shouted to Sir Maejor, it really bothered him.
Sir Maejor says In terms of struggles and setbacks, being born with albinism has been one of the hardest things to deal with in his life. Many people born with albinism can’t see. They have poor vision which means in many cases they can never drive or get jobs that require 20/20 vision or better. He says he simply can’t see the things that you may be able to see.
Another struggle he endured was he had to realize that he was different. Sir Maejor had to adapt with what he was born with. He had to get use to this inferiority complex about himself. He wanted to be included and be in the popular crowd and feel accepted. But it was hard when he couldn’t do what everyone else could do. He couldn’t play basketball because I couldn’t see and in school, he couldn’t play out on the playground with the rest of the other student because the sun was out and I didn’t have sunscreen.
Goals and Aspirations
However, eventually Sir Maejor developed into the opposite of the common albino stereotype, an outgoing individual with dreams bigger than the skyscrapers on Atlanta’s skyline. Sir Maejor is here as an inspiration- and a reckoning- that what people identify as a disorder- can be a beautiful thing. Sir Maejor said he wants to create awareness about albinism, at the same time capitalize off his unique look, many may consider it to be a curse, but he considers albinism as a blessing.
Sir Maejor is different and won’t allow that or anyone’s personal negative opinions of him or what he look like affect his life. One thing Sir Maejor hopes to accomplish is to show that people with disabilities, birth defects or disorders of any kind, can do whatever they desire, if they put their minds to it, something that is easier said than done. Sir Maejor tells other aspiring models to strive to make their dreams a reality, much like he is.
Sir Maejor hopes to join the greats of (Zel) Denzel Washington, Will Smith, Dennis Haysbert and Kiefer Sutherland one day, and we can’t say we aren’t rooting for him. Sir Maejor wants to a iconic face in the business and responsible for taking your brand to new heights. Sir Maejor’s effervescent personality makes him hard to dislike; and his love of the spotlight will help him down the road in his career.
