Back in December 2016, the supermodel revealed she was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s disease, which has caused her to shed pounds.
Bella Hadid‘s sister revealed:
“I loved my body when I was curvier… Then as I lost [the weight], people were still mean.”
She added:
“Yeah, I know I’m skinny. I’m looking in the mirror. I’m trying to eat burgers and do squats. I want an ass too. I get it. I got it. Thank you!”
At the panel, Gigi also discussed the #MeToo movement in the modeling industry, and whether she feels pressured to do naked photoshoots. She dished:
“Some people are empowered and excited to be naked and that is amazing. And I wish I was one of those people and I am not one of those people. And I’ve accepted that about myself and that is okay… There are times where I feel like I am excited about a photographer or a creative situation where I will do this or will do that. But there’s also times where I can be – even though I am so excited for everyone and feel so happy with their empowerment being naked themselves – it’s okay that I feel differently.”
