Gigi Hadid takes us backstage at Anna Sui Spring Summer 2016 at New York Fashion week and tells us why she adores fashion designer Anna Sui and what her role as spokesmodel for Maybelline New York means to her.
Gigi Hadid has always been open about her feelings about her fame as a social media supermodel and has been very candid about her feelings on body shaming on social media. She has been a Maybelline New York spokesmodel since 2015 and tells us it’s a role she is very proud of –
“I grew up watching Maybelline New York commercials and singing the jingle in my bathroom and doing my makeup and to now be able to be in the commercials and be on the screen with the girls singing along too is amazing. I genuinely love the brand and the products and that was something really important to me. It’s very important to me when I make all my deals I genuinely want to be able to represent things that I love because I won’t be able to do it as well if I don’t love the brand, so I’m very happy to be a Maybelline girl.
My message to young girls about beauty is – this sounds so cliche but all the supermodels that I’ve met along the way – it doesn’t matter how beautiful they were, even if I looked up to them for my entire life it always ruined it if they were not nice or not genuine. My favorite girl is Candice Swanepoel who I grew up loving my entire life. Candice is the most genuine, kind person and that makes me love her even more.”
