Gigi Hadid Has a Relatively Fine Response to the Nepo Baby Question

. Her comment in a recent interview wasn't necessarily the best nepo baby response I've heard, but it was . “Technically I’m a nepotism baby,” the supermodel told the newspaper, adding, “My parents came from very little.” Hadid, who is the daughter of former model and Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Yolanda Hadid said, “I’ve always acknowledged that I come from privilege.” Hadid's parents, she explained, always told her, “‘Just because you have parents who were successful, it doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t walk into the job being as nice and as hard-working as you can be.'” She added, “I don't think I'm the prettiest person in the world,” and that she could “probably do” with some Botox.

It's also not the first time that Hadid has given a better-than-average response to questions of nepotism in the entertainment industry. “There are so many girls who come [from] all over the world and work their arses off and send money home to their families like my mother did,” she said in a 2018 interview with , “And I wanted to stand next to them backstage and for them to look at me and respect me and to know that it’s never about me trying to overshadow or take their place.”While Gigi Hadid has been open about being a nepo baby since before “nepo baby” was a thing, her , has had less to say on the subject.

But maybe we can just give her the benefit of the doubt for now and assume she's following her big sister's lead here.By GlamourBy Emily TannenbaumBy Carrie WittmerBy Alice CaryMore from GlamourSee More Stories© 2023 Condé Nast.
