Gigi Hadid Responds to Body Shamer
Gigi Hadid Hits Back at an Instagram Body Shamer in the Best Way Possible
When an Instagram commenter came after Gigi Hadid for being too skinny, she kindly responded by defending herself and all women. The fan claimed she had shed weight to "fit in" with other models and Gigi assured them it wasn't the case. "It's called growing up. Bodies change as girls become women," she said. After explaining how her transition from "intense training" as a volleyball player to now boxing for fitness has affected her muscle mass, Gigi also added she "still eat[s] what [she] wants."

But Gigi didn't make it only about her, she made a point to emphasize that shaming any woman's size is detrimental to their self-esteem and self-image. She wrote, "please think about the young women who may read body-judgement comments and themselves as they see their bodies growing and therefore naturally changing." Gigi has always been an activist for body acceptance and we expect more positivity from the ahtleisure queen in the future.
