First, go look at how fierce Gigi Hadid was on the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show runway. If you thought she was just getting along by her pretty face and famous parents (former model Yolanda Foster of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and her stepfather, music producer David Foster), this should change your mind.
Sure, 2015 has been the year of Gigi. The model has walked the runways for Marc Jacobs, Chanel, Michael Kors, Jean Paul Gaultier, and Max Mara, dated pop stars like Joe Jonas and Cody Simpson, and been a core member of Taylor Swift’s squad. And Victoria’s Secret finally took notice…after passing on the model twice.
“She has worked really hard,” her mother Yolanda Foster told Daily Mail.com. “She’s missed it twice, this was her third try, and she pulled it off and got a spot that millions and millions of beautiful women deserve as much as she does. That’s a part of the game though.”
Gigi even chatted with Refinery 29 about getting rejected. “I didn’t get the show last year, but everything happens for a reason, and the timing feels really right,” she said.
To prepare for this year’s audition, Gigi said she’s been working out twice a day for a week and did cryotherapy the day before the show.
Of course, mom and brother were in the audience to support their girl!
