Today, few models can claim to come close to the level of notoriety of 80s and 90s supermodels like Linda Evangelista, Kate Moss and Naomi Campbell. But the sisters Gigi and Bella Hadid get closer. The latter has just participated in a podcast called “Rep” presented by journalist Noor Tagouri who defines him as follows:
Rep is a thorough investigation of our beliefs and understandings and how they exist within the dynamics of politics, pop culture and public opinion. It’s a story about the stories we tell. “
Bella Hadid podcast tells that she lost her contracts because she supports Palestine
Released on August 15, 2022, the last episode of the Rep podcast on the themes of Muslim representation in the United States and not only therefore welcomes the top model Bella Hadid in particular. In the microphone of Noor Tagouri, the model returns in particular to her public commitment to Palestine and its possible consequences on her career :
” There are so many companies that have stopped working with me.
[…] I have friends who have completely disappointed me. I sincerely believe that if I had started talking about Palestine at 20, I would not have had the recognition and respect that I have today. “
Bella Hadid, too busy in Palestine to model?
In fact, Isabella Khair Hadid has almost 55 million subscribers on Instagram with whom she distills her commitments in favor of her father’s country of origin.. Such is her support that in May 2021, Dior was rumored to have terminated her beauty ambassador contract for this reason. What was wrong: the top is still the muse, along with other personalities like Natalie Portman. Israel’s certified account also tweeted against the model’s attitude, screenshots of her showing ‘he was live streaming in support of her.
“When celebrities like @BellaHadid campaign to throw Jews overboard [ndlr, cette affirmation tient d’une violente exagération], are fighting for the elimination of the Jewish state. This shouldn’t be an Israeli-Palestinian problem. It should be a human question. Shame on you. “
Indeed, Bella Hadid combines physical and digital means to denounce some of Israel’s military policies and operations against Palestine. In addition to her hypermediatization, the model also announced that she would donate part of her compensation to associations to help Palestine. (and more recently also in Ukraine). And she has no plans to stop campaigning, from networks to podiums, on the streets and now podcasts.
