Social media maven Gigi Hadid graces the cover of Adweek
She's on top of the world, and at only 19-years-old, Gigi Hadid is not only the current queen of fashion, but also the reigning social media super star.
Attributing her her skyrocketing sucess in part to her "social media clout," Adweek is featuring our girl on this week's cover. With a combined social following of over 2.8 million people, Gigi has propelled herself into everything from high fashion to beauty and beyond.
Friends with celebrity names like Kendall Jenner, Taylor Swift and Karlie Kloss, just to name a few, Adweek points out that Gigi's BFFs were even recently named "the Instagirls" by fashion's premiere glossy, Vogue. With a natural knack for the web and all things social media, Gigi has tapped into a market of fans and followers who otherwise may not have followed her career, if she had blossomed just a few years prior.
What could be even better? Gigi has both beauty and brains. The two-time SI Swimsuit model would like to go back to college and graduate with her degree in criminal psychology, when her career allows for it. "I'm an entertainer, and I think that I'll always be in that business," Gigi told Adweek.
