Thomas Wesley Pentz aka Diplo might be a force to be reckoned within the music industry.  However, now he can officially add model to that list. Diplo recently signed with NEXT Management, which comes as no surprise considering GQ Magazine named him as one of the world’s best-dressed men.

He is elated and ready for new ventures in the fashion industry.

Diplo stated, “With the worlds of fashion, music and wider visual culture growing closer. I want to explore a new world of creativity and am thrilled to sign with NEXT Management, who understands what I represent and where I want to be. Plus I’ve just always wanted to be a supermodel.”

It seems like NEXT welcomes this new venture as well.

“We, at Next Management, have a huge appreciation for those who use their gifts to affect culture in a positive way,” said NEXT Management’s Faith Kates in a statement. “As fashion is representative of the collision of all pop cultures, we are excited and confident that Diplo‘s insight into culture and prowess in music will resonate with brands.”
