For the past decade Jake has been in the limelight, he has undergone various drastic changes beginning from his sexual orientation, gender to his sense of style. From his first exposure to fame, Jake was a cute little girl with a very captivating and incredible voice.
He grew into a pretty young lady with a long brunette hair and chubby cheeks. His sense of style seemed to change when the world saw him as a lesbian. His long brunette hair was replaced with a shorter shoulder-length haircut as he had a signature blazer look and began putting on more make-up.
Jake, later on, corrected the world stating that he is not a lesbian but a transman and started his journey into becoming a man. His wardrobe changed to masculine clothes and he opted for a short and more masculine hair-cut.
