From being named as the face of Maybelline to landing a swimwear campaign for Seafolly, Gigi Hadid has been making serious waves in the modelling industry.
As well as a booming career, Gigi runs with a seriously cool crowd; she’s part of Taylor Swift’s squad, calls Kendall Jenner her best friend and parties with Cara Delevingne, Justin Bieber and Lewis Hamilton.
So what’s her secret to success? The 20-year-old model has shared her fitness, beauty and lifestyle mantras with Refinery29 – and she’s a lot more laidback than you’d think.

The fledgling model, who found fame as a GUESS and VS Pink poster girl, discussed her attitude to healthy body image and diet.
‘You find how you feel your best,’ she said. ‘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. Eat clean, and work out to stay fit – and have a burger to stay sane.’
The down-to-earth star also revealed that she sometimes opts to do her own make-up for an event so that she can ‘sit in her hotel room by herself and order fries.’
Her WineNDine account is certainly testament to her laidback attitude to dieting.
Gigi often takes to the app, which has been branded the ‘Instagram for food’, to offer fans a sneak peek into her daily diet and favorite meals – and it’s clear that she loves french fries.
The model has posted 34 meals to the app and most are of fried food and carb-heavy treats such as cake and lasagna.
When it comes to her beauty regime, she takes inspiration from one of her nearest and dearest.
‘Kendall [Jenner] is really good about her skin. Like, the second she gets home, she washes her face perfectly. She always knows how to do her makeup; she’s really good at that stuff,’ said Gigi of her best pal.
Gigi and Kendall form part of Hollywood’s new brat pack – and have been dominating the coolest catwalks and parties in recent months.
It seems that Gigi was always destined for stardom; her mother, Yolanda Foster, stars on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, her father is Palestinian Architect Mohammed Hadid, who is a multi-millionaire, and her stepfather is music producer David Foster, who has helped launched the careers of Michael Buble and Celine Dion.
Plus, she’s forged an extremely close friendship with Tinseltown’s queen bee, Taylor Swift, in the past year, starring in Bad Blood and joining Taylor on stage in Detroit as well as at this weekend’s London festival.
The duo have even been spotted double dating – Gigi is thought to be dating Joe Jonas, whilst Taylor has been courting Calvin Harris over the last few months.
