| This gorgeous beauty has taken the modeling world by storm, and I don't think there has ever been so much excitement and buzz about a new model! Jelena Noura "Gigi" Hadid, is an American fashion model and TV personality. Gigi just celebrated her 20th birthday this week, born on April 23rd, 1995. She is the daughter of Palestinian real estate broker Mohamed Hadid, and Dutch former model and Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star, Yolanda Foster. Gigi was raised in California and graduated from Malibu High School, where she was the Captain of her varsity volleyball team. Her modeling career began early at the age of four, when she was discovered by Paul Marciano, of Guess. Since then, she has been the face of Guess for several more campaigns, including the most recent Guess Spring of 2015. Gigi signed with IMG Models in 2011. This stunning blonde beauty was named one of the top 12 rookies in the 2014 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition. Hadid has graced the pages of magazines such as Vogue, Elle, VMAN, Gracia, and many more. The 5'10 stunning model, walked numerous runway shows including Chanel, Tom Ford, Dolce&Gabbana, Jean Paul Gauthier, Sonia Rykiel, Michael Kors, and Emilio Pucci, just to name a few. She was also named Model of the Year at the 2015 First Annual Fashion Los Angeles Awards. In January 14, Gigi became the new face and spokesperson for Maybelline New York. Gigi Hadid is one of the hottest and top rising models in the field today, with her natural beauty and 5'10 frame. She has an amazingly supportive family, especially with her mom Yolanda, who raised her to remain true to herself and down to earth, especially in such a cut throat business. I think she has a really bright future ahead in the modeling world, and whatever else she chooses on her path to success.
