Gigi Hadid blasts Kanye West: You're a bully and funny

Gigi Hadid won't accept Kanye West attacking one of her friends. Following the West Yeezy launch at Paris Fashion Week, editor and designer Gabriella Karefa-Johnson – who was in attendance – shared her thoughts on the show on Instagram. On her Instagram Story, she posted screenshots of messages she had shared with friends that contained her concern for West, including wearing "White Lives Matter" clothing at the show.

West immediately began pushing back against Karefa-Johnson, posting mocking comments about the editor. In posts that have since been deleted from his account, West shared photos of Karefa-Johnson, including one in which he claimed Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour hated her boots.

Following the posts, Hadid came to the defense of Karefa-Johnson, who she has worked with in the past, including on the March 2021 cover of Vogue.

"You wish you had a fraction of her intellect," Hadid wrote. "You have no idea haha…. If there's actually a meaning to any of the crap you say, she might be the one person who can save you. Why should the honor of being a guest on your show get in the way of someone to give his own opinion..? Lol. You are a bully and funny."

She further added on her Instagram Story that Karefa-Johnson is one of the most important voices in the fashion industry and can "educate that shy man," again referring to Kanye.
