Gigi claps back:

Hadid responded to the criticism earlier today in a follow-up comment beneath the post.

"Let me make this clear for everyone below who thinks I don't deserve to have an opinion on my experience and warn people of this - I was robbed along with more than 30 houses that night, some to gunpoint," she wrote. "It was not possible to contact any form of law enforcement except through my local security who happened to have a contact."

And while she acknowledged that having a security team isn't exactly a privilege many people would have, Hadid went on to criticize the Greek authorities' handling of the situation.

"It doesn't seem as though their training and resources are in line with keeping people safe or keeping up with the amount of crime that is happening on a nightly basis there (I am speaking of the island specifically only because it's where I experienced this)," Hadid continued. She then later added, "This is not information that is shared with people before they go. If I'd known it happened so much and there was not enough infrastructure to protect myself I wouldn't have gone."

Hadid then ended her response by writing, "lastly, I work my *** off and never do a trip like this for myself and friends, so if I want to post pictures of the trip after being robbed, I will do so."

She could have avoided criticism and online backlash had she posted all of this in her caption.
Why the need to have an interview ? Did Paper magazine pay her to talk ?
She's dumb (but it sucks she got robbed nonetheless)

There wasn't any interview, she commented on her post. Paper just took the quote.

Didn't see that. Thanks
Regardless, she could have posted this whole caption, instead of what she posted initially

 

[xoxoadore]

and then she deactivated the comments lol she can't handle the truth

 

[Deleted member 143689]

Right?!?!

She just had the largest ego ever, talked about how she was changing the industry and that she was about to knock

and then she deactivated the comments lol she can't handle the truth

i have heard some very interesting stories of late about miss Gigi and her ego. someone I know was on a shoot w a very verrrry well known Photog for a majorrrrr house and Gigi apparently refused to come out of her dressing area for more frames and threw a major tantrum. Essentially all while complaining about how she took a lower rate (talking hundreds of thousands still she received) for the job bc of who was shooting. And by tantrum I mean screaming at crew etc.

Naomi Campbell seems to be doing a lot of PR damage control with her recent YouTube video especially after some pretty damning accusations ie the Daily Mail article

Honestly though super iconic she is a horrible person. Aggressive, violent, ultra condescending and self involved. It was kinda fab and cute when she was actually on top but now it just like eye roll. Remember the whole blood diamond fiasco, was surprised she survived that PR wise.

Totally agree. From a supermodel perspective she's amazing but from a humanitarian perspective she's a nightmare. There's NO way she didn't know about the stuff going on with people like Charles Taylor, Weinstein, Epstein, and the countless others she's mingled with. And her overall personality and work-ethic doesn't do her ANY favours.

 

[Lax89]

She should be disgraced from the fashion industry
She's a shame

Tbh, that article is pretty trash as most of those people weren’t persona-non-grata 3 years ago. And I don’t think Naomi is more guilty than a lot of people with being with some questionable people at some point of her life.
When you are around « circles of power » in fashion, business, tech, philanthropy, entertainment or politics, you are likely going at some point to meet some questionable people.

When I got to the industry, it’s clear that nobody was amused by her behaviour and except maybe for her « Catwalk community service », her Diva antics never made me smile. However, her humanitarian work is genuine. I just wish that she didn’t used it as a PR. It’s a bit gross...

Yes you are doing good but you have to aknowledge that while you was already doing good, you was also a hell to handle.

She will survive this because pulling photos from 2003 or 2009 is pointless. She is miss Diversity and Humanitarian nowadays and those issues have more echo than her past associations.

 

[GivenchyAddict]

I have mixed feelings because fashion - especially at this level attracts a lot of people from various industries : entertainment, finances, politics, etc. You took photos with them, talked to them because they were (at a given time) powerful and successful. Naomi can not check everyone antics especially back then because we knew social medias will be that huge and that people will dig up some old photos.

Plus, should you be held accountable for everything you did in your past ? Yes definitely but it does not mean that doing sometimes wrong things can't allow you to do good ones.

Naomi has some issues and always brought to herself the wrong people it seems - same for Kate Moss. Now she pays the price I guess.

 

[modela]

What a trash article .

 

[ThatDudeOverTher]

This is a load of tosh from the Daily Mail. Naomi has been photographed with hundreds of people over the course of her career, but you're going to sift through to find those with unsavory backgrounds to make it appear like something more sinister is going on behind the scenes? If she finds herself at events with these people, is she supposed to ignore them? Does that mean she's in cahoots with them?

I have so many pictures with a bunch of people from my previous career, celebrities included, joking, laughing, hugging. If one looks at those (as my friends do), they would think I lived this fabulous, glamorous life with celebrities, when that is so far from the truth. The industry is small, you will be around the same people often, friends of friends and acquaintances will show up. You can see someone often enough at events that you share laughs and hugs and pleasantries and not actually know a single thing about their private/personal lives. This article is ridiculous!

Finally, the whole "blood diamonds" situation was incredibly unfortunate, but as Naomi explained, she didn't know much about the activities of Charles Taylor and when she did find out about the things he had done, she didn't want to testify out of fear for herself and her family. Is that really unreasonable?? There are so many ways to get a witness to testify without dragging them in a courtroom and appear to be responsible for a truly heinous character's imprisonment. Not when he has henchmen all over the place. The way she handled it was bad, but her reasons were valid.

PS discounting the work that Naomi has been doing over so many years with charity is just pathetic. Someone needs to start checking the British press and their intentions.

But that's the thing. She knows she did bad things in the past and mingled with the wrong people so she got into charity to "clean" her act. There were rumours surrounding Weinstein and Epstein before. So she must have known or heard about something.
She's an opportunist and nothing more

Yes. Why risk being associated with bad people when you can simply avoid them ? It's happening to her now.

Come on! She has been into charity since the late 90’s. At that time maybe people though it was a posture but I think that overtime, after 20 +years I don’t think it’s fair to question that....

I have one question: What could she have done after hearing rumors about a man who made everything possible in his power to silence people?

The world is not as simple as the teletubbies. That man was simply one of the most powerful figure in Hollywood. I don’t know why you expect from Naomi Campbell to be a savior based on rumors...Because until the infamous article, it was rumors. Even a privileged figure like Lea Seydoux here in France didn’t said anything despite having been in an uncomfortable situation with him.

Naomi didn’t asked Weinstein to be a predator for 30 years. She don’t have to pay a price for taking pictures with predators...

The reality is that Naomi has never been truly accepted in UK. I don’t know if it’s her personality but as a model, she has been recognized in the US, in Paris and Milan but never in the UK like Kate or others.

I feel like doing this video actually make something that was a non-event a topic of discussion. Nobody cares about the Dailymail. I’m surprised she does...

 

[GivenchyAddict]

^ I think she cares as it is the same newspaper which spent time to cover everything she did wrong and never wrote about what she did right.

Naomi is always held accountable for what she did in the past which is definitely not the case for Kate Moss and her drug addiction for example.

 

[Lax89]

You can't be a philanthropist and then treat your employees or policemen like they're nothing. She has serious ethics issues
But good for her for caringand working for many different charities.
