BRAX x LIEPSNA Magazine
Braxton-Lileah Wintle is her full name, but everyone who knows her calls her “Brax” — a name she would one day absolutely love to see on a Hollywood star. Brax dreams big at just 8 years old and is a young girl with many incredible talents.
Brax is from Sydney, Australia, and is a singer, dancer, model and actor. She dances at Ettingshausens Dance School in Sydney and trains in many genres including hip hop, jazz, tap, musical theatre, lyrical/contemporary and ballet. Brax is part of the elite competition dance classes at Ettingshausens.
Braxton also has a strong passion for modelling and has been modelling for over four years, walking in many major runway shows across Australia. Some of these include Kidz Fashion Week 2023 Sydney runway show, Kidz Fashion Week 2024 Sydney runway show, DJ Jazzy Fashion Meets Music 2023 Sydney runway show, DJ Jazzy Fashion Meets Music 2024 Sydney runway show and DJ Jazzy Fashion Meets Music 2024 Queensland runway show.
Braxton is also a brand ambassador for many businesses and takes part in modelling shoots with them throughout the year. She is a brand ambassador for Madmia, Sprinkledfairy_Crafts and IIIAthletica. Over the past year she has also worked with several well-known brands, and one of her favourite experiences was being part of the Wicked Movie campaign for Big W in 2024.
Brax has many exciting modelling opportunities ahead in 2025, including more runway shows across Australia and collaborations with several major brands. She absolutely loves being in front of the camera and her dream is to become a professional model and performer in the future.
Brax is also a featured dancer for @Djjazzy33 and The Daydreamers, and this year marks her third year as a Daydreamer. Alongside dance and modelling, Brax is also a singer and trains with her incredible vocal coach Dianne Regan, who is based in Sydney. She has been selected as a featured vocalist for DJ Jazzy and The Daydreamers this year.
Brax has been singing for three years and will be performing at many major events around Australia this year. She has a huge love for singing and is inspired by the incredible Ariana Grande, hoping one day she can be just as amazing.
Even at just 8 years old, Brax works incredibly hard and trains daily in dance, singing, modelling and acting.
Brax will also be appearing in the upcoming City Kids Theatre production of Footloose the Musical this April at the Bryan Brown Theatre in Sydney, directed by Davin Griffiths-Jones. She is also a student in Davin Griffiths-Jones’ Triple Threat class, training in singing, acting and dancing.
In 2024, Braxton performed in the ensemble cast of both Disney’s Alice in Wonderland Jr. and Disney’s Aladdin Jr. She absolutely loves performing on stage in musical theatre productions.
Brax was truly born to perform and we can’t wait to see what the future holds for her. At just 4 years old, Brax’s dream was to become famous, perform for the world and be on everyone’s TVs.
With her dedication and hard work, we hope all her dreams come true and that one day everyone will know her name, “Brax”.
Brax is a kind and loving girl who simply wants to make people happy and smile through her talents. She also has a little sass and her bubbly, bright personality shines wherever she goes. She has a gentle nature and wants to be friends with the whole world.
Brax’s favourite colour is blue because she loves the ocean — “it’s so pretty,” she says.
Her favourite food is cheesy pasta. She says pasta gives her lots of energy for when she dances and performs.
Her favourite movie is Wicked, as she is the biggest Ariana Grande fan and loves singing all the songs from the movie. Her favourite song from the film is “Defying Gravity”.
Brax loves all of Ariana Grande’s music, but her favourite Ariana Grande song is “One Last Time”. She is also inspired by many other artists including Blackpink, Bruno Mars, Sabrina Carpenter, Michael Jackson, Demi Lovato, Eminem, Katy Perry, Kylie Minogue, Little Mix and Adele. These incredible artists inspire Brax every day to never give up on her dreams.
Brax’s favourite place in the world, besides being on stage performing, is the beach or the pool, spending time in the water with her family. She loves her three older brothers and her parents, and her family means everything to her.
Brax also loves fashion and shopping and enjoys choosing outfits for her modelling shoots. One of her favourite designers is the incredible DJ Jazzy, who creates magic on the runway for Brax in the amazing DJ Jazzy Fashion Meets Music runway shows. DJ Jazzy’s creativity is truly divine and she knows exactly what Brax loves to wear on the runway.
Brax often loves a K-pop vibe in her outfits, mixed with a girly, funky, urban fashion style. She loves to look different on the runway and in life, to be creative and shine.
Brax is inspired by many models around the world including Miranda Kerr and Gigi Hadid, and she loves when models embrace what makes them unique.
For Brax, it’s all about being yourself, loving what you do and living in the moment.
Her biggest dreams include walking global runways, performing on Broadway, singing to audiences around the world and becoming a star. With the positive energy Brax brings to the world and the kind, sweet heart she has, we hope all her dreams come true.
Never give up on your dreams.
