I know that the designers that have me in their shows have me for a reason, I know that the designers that don’t have me in their shows don’t have me for a reason, and I accept either way. – Gigi Hadid
You find how you feel your best, whether you feel better when you’re eating gluten-free or whatever it is. I feel better when I eat a burger every other night. – Gigi Hadid
In third grade, I played basketball with the boys every day at lunch. I had braces that were yellow and purple, and I wore full Laker uniforms to school. – Gigi Hadid
My biggest thing about being a role model is whatever I’m preaching, I’m practicing. If I’m telling people I’m boxing and then I’m eating a burger tonight, it’s because I am. I’m not cheating and eating a salad and then being like, ‘Yeah! Burgers are cool!’ – Gigi Hadid
I’m the only one in – of my siblings, my mom and my family – that hasn’t been affected by Lyme disease. It’s been really hard for me because I’m the only one that doesn’t really understand it. – Gigi Hadid
I can eat healthy when I want to, and I can work out every single day, and I can have the body for a certain runway show if I need to, but that doesn’t mean that I’m doing it in an unhealthy way. – Gigi Hadid
I’m 19 now, and I go to The New School in New York, where I study Criminal Psychology. My first week of second semester was during Fashion Week when my first editorials in ‘CR Fashion Book’ and ‘Sports Illustrated’ came out. It was crazy! – Gigi Hadid
I’m from Malibu, California. Once I tell people, they’re like, ‘Oh, of course you’re from Malibu; that makes sense.’ I guess I am your typical just-graduated-high-school-in-Malibu type of girl. Our school was just across from Zuma beach, and we all wore Lululemons and bathing suit tops to go to the grocery store – no makeup, no shoes. – Gigi Hadid
I post pictures that I want to post and say what I want to say. If that’s three times a day or three times per month, then whatever. – Gigi Hadid
You have to realise that everyone that you are working with is important. It doesn’t matter where you are starting from; you are always going to run back into those people, and they are going to talk, and that’s going to be the base of whether you get good opportunities or not. – Gigi Hadid
I’m kind of the model that everyone thought would always be the Guess, ‘Sports Illustrated’ girl. Then, when I started to do high fashion stuff… people were like, ‘Oh, so we can have a girl with, like, thighs and a butt in a Tom Ford campaign. Cool.’ – Gigi Hadid
A lot of the time, we’re shooting summer campaigns in winter because they have to come out the next season. It’s the hardest to feel great in a bikini when it’s cold… so I appreciate a swimsuit shoot that’s in warm weather. – Gigi Hadid
No, I’m not the first or last model of my type in this industry. You can make up all the reasons you think I am where I am, but really, I’m a hard worker that’s confident in myself – one that came at a time where the fashion industry was ready for a change. – Gigi Hadid
I started modeling when I was about 2 or 3 years old; I started with Baby Guess, and I did Guess Kids, and that was the extent of my modeling career as a kid. I took all of my elementary, middle and high school years off to focus on school and sports. – Gigi Hadid
I’m kind of a grandma, so I like cooking for my boyfriend and watching a movie. I cook a lot, actually. I’ll make bacon-wrapped asparagus, steak, and pesto pasta with chicken…but we go out to dinner a fair amount, too. – Gigi Hadid
My makeup artist likes to define my brows with Maybelline Brow Drama. We brush up on the part closest to my nose and it’s straight after that. Then, I like to use the matte brown shades from Maybelline The Nudes Palette to shadow my eyes, but without it looking like I’m wearing much. – Gigi Hadid
I just started using this app called Wine and Dine. It’s like Instagram, but only for food. You post what you’re eating and follow your friends, and then you can say, ‘I wanna try that,’ and so when you go on your ‘wanna try’ list, it’ll tell you where it is. – Gigi Hadid
In middle school, I wasn’t allowed to wear makeup. I secretly bought Maybelline’s SuperStay 24-hr. concealer at CVS. I thought it was the coolest thing in the world. – Gigi Hadid
I went to almost all of the agencies in New York when I first visited. A lot of them wanted to sign me but also kind of indirectly were telling me that I needed to change in some way. Some directly told me that I wouldn’t be a model unless I changed the way that my body looked. – Gigi Hadid
Twitter is the place where I try to be more funny. And then I use Instagram just as my diary. I pull some jokes on there, but I think people have a better sense of humor on Twitter. – Gigi Hadid
My sister is my little star, and I’m excited for her and proud of her. With her, I’m protective, but also I don’t want to be that sister who’s really pushy and thinks they know everything and making her feel like she doesn’t know what she’s doing. I’m trying to be that cool older sister and not the mom, but it’s hard. – Gigi Hadid
A camel is a very awkward animal to ride, and it’s very hard to get used to because they’re not very graceful. – Gigi Hadid
Coming back to Guess is so natural for me; they’re my family. I always love being back, and to be able to come home and be in Malibu across the street from my high school shooting this campaign is absolutely amazing and just feels like the right thing. – Gigi Hadid
In real life, I’m so goofy and super weird. I’m never mean, but people don’t see the weird side of me. Like, I’ll be dancing around. My best friends will always say that they wish others saw that side of me, when I’m doing a weird dance or weird faces or voices. – Gigi Hadid
Everyone has a different body shape, so you kind of have to figure out not only what works best for your body type, but what also makes you feel confident. Even if everyone thinks you look good in a bikini, and you don’t feel good in it, you’re not going to be at your best. If you feel great in a bikini, you can always work it. – Gigi Hadid
I personally would rather do the Master Cleanse for ten days than just eat salad for six months. – Gigi Hadid
Not enough people know what Lyme disease is and the dangers of being bitten by an insect. – Gigi Hadid
My mom was a model, so she’s been really good about giving me tips on how to navigate behind the scenes – like the importance of being nice to everyone on set and remembering people’s names, to how to be a positive part of the photo shoot and stuff like that. – Gigi Hadid
I personally think my sister is so stunning without makeup. And she doesn’t wear that much makeup because she has the best skin color. – Gigi Hadid
