To not get Bella Hadid?

I was vaguely aware of her the last couple of years, but thought she was a glamorous, extremely well-preserved older lady, maybe in her 40s.
I've just seen that she is 21! Nothing wrong with being 40 (I am myself) but I wouldn't have wanted to look it when I was barely out of my teens. My point being that she has had plastic surgery to look that way.
Am I the only one who finds it a bit weird?

I actually think she’s astoundingly beautiful and much more interesting to look at than Gigi (although she is gorgeous too). But beauty is very subjective!

Thebeautifullisette · 03/10/2018 20:47

I’ve truly no idea what you mean. What plastic surgery? What ‘well-preserved 40s’?

Nothisispatrick · 03/10/2018 20:47

I think she looks like Morticia Adams, and much much older than 21

glintandglide · 03/10/2018 20:47

I’m totally confused by the post! Are you sure you’re looking at the right person? Bella Hadid doesn’t look 40!

newstartz · 03/10/2018 20:48

Yes she looks awfully miserable all the time and a LOT older than her age. Gigi is lovely though. Much more natural.

Beamur · 03/10/2018 20:49

I think she's unremarkable looking.

Namechangeforthiscancershit · 03/10/2018 20:50

I don’t think she looks her age at all in some
pics but there is something about her and she came across really well on Making a Model I think. Not that I watched that trash OBVIOUSLY. Her Wikipedia picture is particularly ageing I think.

This is her a few years ago

I guess it's just me then. Like I said I do think she looks very glamorous (and has an incredible figure) but just looks older to me. Not wrinkly obviously - just older. Think it's the cheekbones.

She definitely looks mid 30s anyway

Namechangeforthiscancershit · 03/10/2018 20:54

Oh wow Lemon is that seriously her? What’s happened in the intervening years?

SaucyJack · 03/10/2018 20:57

I am not a fan of the current crop of rich kids who’ve become famous for having excessive plastic surgery and wearing little clothing in public.

Namechangeforthiscancershit · 03/10/2018 20:59

Saucy you’ve been on my Instagram then Grin

VintageFur · 03/10/2018 21:01

She's wearing the same face as Carla Brunei. You'd have thought if daddy was going to send her to Carla's surgeon she'd have the sense not to be papped with Carla. The pics are hilarious. And daddy's house is obscene.

Harleypuppy · 03/10/2018 21:01

She's had her nose done. Very rich property developer father and ex model mother. I know this because of watching The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.Blush

Agree with this

BlessYour2Sizes2SmallHeart · 03/10/2018 21:06

I heard lots about them before ever seeing pictures, I was pretty underwhelmed when I did see what they look like. I was expecting to see 90's era glamourous supermodels. Instead if slightly above average pretty girls with the right body to model. Confused I don't get the hype.

She went nuts with Daddy’s credit card and got a metric fuck tonne of plastic surgery

Ah that’ll be it!

She was so cute though before. Shame.

Scientistic · 03/10/2018 21:08

I thought the same op. Both Hadid girls have a very unhappy look about that naturally, they are probably lovely, but certainly have a grumpy look.

She got surgery to look 40, obvi.

I agree that she looks like Carla Bruni, who these days looks as though she is wearing a tight-fitting mask

She doesn’t look 40, but doesn’t look 21 either. I agree with above posters, she looks in her 30s.

AngeloMysterioso · 03/10/2018 21:16

Apparently she said she wanted to Carla Bruni, so that explains that.

It definitely takes a certain level of deluded narcissism that only a very privileged upbringing and a lot of fashion industry fawning can buy to think that you can pull off an “outfit” like this.

PinguDance · 03/10/2018 21:16

I have spent more time than I'm willing to confess to looking at pictures of her thinking - do i like her face? I still don't know.
