After graduating from high school, LEAH Dizon has moved to Los Angeles and began her modeling career which turned out to be her biggest ticket to other entertainment roles. While attending college as a film major, Dizon landed a phone company advertisement and posed for the cover features of various high quality import-car magazines. This gained her much attention and a huge fanbase overseas, predominantly in East Asia. One year after her pictures were posted up on the internet, she already had 2,000,000 hits from search engines. Following the advice of her fans, Dizon sent a demo tape with photographs of herself to a talent agency in Japan and in April 2006, after being accepted, she immediately moved to Tokyo. In October 2006, she released her first photobook titled Petite Amie (Girlfriend in French), which was ranked as the third best-selling photobook of 2006 and 2007.
