GIGI HADID EXPANDED HER CLOTHING BUSINESS

Model Gigi Hadid celebrated the opening of her pop-up store called Guest in Residence on Beverly Drive in Beverly Hills this weekend. She already has a store in New York that features lots of cashmere and knit sweaters along with quilted puffers and warm winter clothing. LA is an odd choice for a winter clothing store- fortunately the shop is temporary. Bradley Cooper flew in for the opening and took Gigi out to dinner at Giorgio Baldi with her dad, so their relationship is still going strong…

JUSTIN BIEBER: INSPIRED BY GEORGE MICHAEL

Justin Bieber is hoping to make his musical comeback and he’s relying on his wife Hailey and her famous girlfriends to help propel him back to the top. Justin released his last album in 2021 and postponed his accompanying tour in 2022. He’s taken a self imposed hiatus since then, but now he’s getting ready to drop a new album and wants Hailey and some of her fellow model friends like Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid to appear in the video. Justin hopes to mimic George Michael‘s Freedom! music video which featured supermodels such as Cindy Crawford and Naomi Campbell. He’s hoping lightning strikes twice and a sexy video with Hailey and her model friends will hit number one, just like it did for George over 30 years ago.

TAYLOR SWIFT TO THE RESCUE

Taylor Swift wants to have her cake and eat it too. Taylor’s favorite indulgence is the triple berry cake from LA’s glorious bakery Sweet Lady Jane, but after 35 years in business, the popular bakery unexpectedly SHUT DOWN on December 31! (The founder Jane Lockhart sold the business a few years back and the new owners over-expanded and ran it into the ground.). Taylor and her posse, including Gigi Hadid, have fond memories of the delicious yet surprising light cake (we’ve enjoyed it NUMEROUS times as well.) In fact, the special cake is adored by many people in LA who were upset to hear about the closing. According to a source, Taylor is thinking about resurrecting the beloved bakery and is hoping to put together a plan to bring back her favorite dessert.

JOE JONAS IS THINKING ABOUT THE GAL THAT GOT AWAY

Now that he’s suddenly back on the market, Joe Jonas is hoping to reconnect with the one who got away. Joe’s last relationship before marrying Sophie Turner was with model Gigi Hadid, but it ended after five months and they both went on to have children with other people. Gigi also happens to be available now, since splitting with her baby daddy, Zayn Malik. Although she’s been seen with Leonardo DiCaprio – that’s more of a casual hookup than a relationship. They say timing is EVERYTHING, so now that they’re both single parents, Joe is testing to waters with mutual pals to see if Gigi MIGHT be interested in rekindling their once hot romance.

GIGI HADID: AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN

Navigating the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival is not easy – you must play by all the rules and above all, try not to fall down and embarrass yourself in front of numerous paparazzi. Gigi Hadid has more experience that most in wearing uncomfortable and highly unfunctional designer clothes, but even SHE must be a little frightened by that long staircase. The glamorous dress she’s wearing is not only restricting, but VERY long. Add that to stiletto heels, and odds of making it up those stairs without tripping increases exponentially…

ZAYN MALIK: LETTING HIMSELF GO?

We happen to think Zayn Malik was drop-dead gorgeous when he was in One Direction– but since he unceremoniously quit, he hasn’t seen any of his former band members – or his barber either! He’s been living as a recluse on that Pennsylvania farm with his almost two year old daughter Khai since he and Gigi Hadid split in Oct 2021. Zayn and Gigi share custody. We used to see Gigi pushing Khai in her stroller around NYC, but she’s been invisible since the split. The parents must have a “no publicity for the baby” agreement so Khai is a recluse like her dad. Meanwhile, Zayn has been growing out his hair (from a shaved head) and he wears it in the style of a surfer (or a homeless person, depending on who’s looking) and now he’s selling sweatshirts and t-shirts to fans with his “art” on them called Paynt by Zayn. You can buy the hoody he’s wearing for $70.

GIGI AND BELLA HADID TAKE AFTER THEIR MOTHER

How can you NOT enjoy looking at the Hadid sisters – Gigi and Bella are all dressed up for a NY event called the Prince’s Trust Gala. Their glamorous presence at any event is an asset. The charity was founded by Prince Charles in 1976 specifically to create opportunities for at-risk 11 to 30 years olds who are struggling in school or unemployed – around the world. A worthy cause. Besides looking adorable, models Gigi and Bella have nice reputations – no divas there. That’s more than you can say about their father Mohamed Hadid and his real estate hijinks…

YOLANDA HADID: FROM MODEL MOM TO VILLAIN

Former Real Housewife of Beverly Hills Yolanda Hadid is having a bad year. First she managed to cause the break-up of her daughter Gigi Hadid and Zayn Malik, the father of her 1 year old child. It seems Yolanda was on their Pennsylvania farm with Zayn and the baby and they had an argument. Yolanda claimed that Zayn not only insulted her but physically assaulted her. She pressed charges and Zayn pleaded “No contest” although he denied charges to the press. Zayn and Gigi haven’t been seen together since. This week Yolanda’s other daughter Bella Hadid admitted to Vogue that she had a nose job at the age of 14 that she now regrets. The internet blew up with fans jumping all over Yolanda – calling her a horrible mother for allowing a 14 year old to have plastic surgery.

GOOD LOOKS RUN IN THE HADID FAMILY, NO THANKS TO MOHAMED

If you think the Kardashians are a good looking family, take a close look at the Hadids. Bella Hadid posted this photo of herself, her mother Yolanda, and her sister Gigi from the late 90’s to celebrate Yolanda’s birthday. Born in Holland, Yolanda was a successful model before she married questionable real estate developer Mohamed Hadid back in 1994. They split after six years, but had three children (Bella, Gigi, and Anwar) who were good looking enough to all become models. Fortunately, they take after their mother…

NOTHING GOOD CAN COME OF THIS

Gigi Hadid and Zayn Malik were a bad match from the start. She’s a hard-working model, grateful for her success and filled with ambition. She is very sociable and aims to develop a career as a TV personality or correspondent. Grateful seems not to be in Zayn’s vocabulary – the drop-dead handsome singer just walked away from his One Direction group at the height of their popularity, left the other guys in the lurch, and petulantly complained that he was “anxious” and couldn’t tolerate all the public attention. Instead of addressing his anxiety problem, he moved to a remote ranch in Pennsylvania. He even uses his baby daughter as an excuse for being reclusive. These are all the ingredients for a huge custody battle over his and Gigi’s child that he keeps hidden.
