Gigi Hadid
- 25 years old
Jelena Noura Hadid, known professionally as Gigi Hadid, is an American supermodel who made her debut in the Top 50 Models ranking at Models.com. However, she rose to fame in 2016 when she was named International Model of the Year by the British Fashion Council.
Well, since then, the career of our beautiful supermodel has begun to flourish and gradually develop, becoming one of the highest paid models in the world and appearing at least 35 times on international Vogue magazine covers.
She was born in Los Angeles and has two siblings, Bella Hadid and Anwar Hadid, both being models. She studied criminal psychology at The New School (a private research university in New York City), but dropped out of school to pursue a career in modeling.
Nevertheless, what many people don’t know about Gigi is that she actually started her modeling career when she was only two years old (in 1997), after being discovered by Paul Marciano of Guess clothing, so she posed for Baby Guess. She continued with Guess a few years later, namely in 2012, when she became an adult.
In 2016, she walked for Versace, Chanel, Elie Saab, Fendi, Marc Jacobs, Anna Sui, Miu Miu, Balmain, and other prominent fashion designers and clothing brands.
In 2014, she spoke publicly about her personal life, revealing that she had been diagnosed with Hashimoto’s disease – an autoimmune disease in which the thyroid gland is gradually destroyed. Our beautiful supermodel has been in a relationship with English singer Zayn Malik since late 2015, with whom she has a daughter.
