Gigi Hadid
Gigi Hadid is undeniably a supermodel.
But on some planet, people with terrible vision and a lack of functioning neurons have said otherwise.
Williams recently told theHuffington Post: “Most women athletes are pretty thin.
I didn’t really know how to deal with it.
I had to come to termsas every teen and young adult doeswith loving myself.
I had to find different role models.
But my body throw in is in style now, so I’m loving it!”
My mother would say to me, ‘Barbra Streisand never got a nose job.
You’re not getting a nose job.’
And this was before I really even knew who Barbra was.
I just knew that she was, like, the messiah for girls like me."
She elaborated:
“The thing I had to get used to with TV was the likability factor.
People have to like you, people have to think you’re pretty.
She just doesn’t fit.
It should have been someone like Halle Berry.
It’s her voice, and she doesn’t walk like a supermodel in those heels.'
And people do say that, they do.
They don’t walk like supermodels in heels.
They take their wig and makeup off at night.
So this role was my way of saying, ‘Welcome to womanhood!’
Our culture, that’s who.
“They booked me directly when I was much younger.
And I showed up on set, and they asked me if they could take a photo.
And they say, ‘you better leave right now.
They just said you are fat, and you oughta come get your measurements taken.'”
Do I fit some ideals and standards of some men writing in a men’s magazine?
Am I really the unsexiest women in the world?
It’s so brutal in a way, so filled with rage and anger.
What can I do?
I guess you’ve got the option to’t yo all people.”
“It was hard at first,” she toldVogue.
“You sit there and you’re like ‘Is something wrong with me?’
The things that they’re rejecting are things that I can’t change.
I can’t change my bra size.
I can work out and I can stay healthy and motivated, but I can’t change some things.
I really just live my life.
I love my body.
It’s what God gave me!
I feel like karmically, I was vindicated, but at the time it felt terrible.”
“I’m never going to starve myself for a part,” she toldElle.
I was trying to get my body to look fit and strongnot thin and underfed."
And, ‘You’re not sexy enough.
You’re not pretty enough.’
When I was really young, I auditioned for this really bad movie with vampires.
I wore a dress to the audition that I thought was really hot.
Then I was told I wasn’t hot enough.
My manager at the time said, ‘Would you go back and sex it up a little bit?’
After that, I was like, ‘OK, f this!’
