Gigi Hadid—The Hottest “Girl Next Door”

by anonymous翻譯：栗子

美國95后新秀吉吉可謂是名副其實、集萬千寵愛于一身的吸金超模。從排球運動員到模特，她走過維密秀，她是許多大品牌的“寵兒”；她是擁有極高人氣的社交女王，在社交網站上的一舉一動都備受關注，而每一次的街拍都能成為討論熱點；雖然有著超高人氣，但她一直給人一種“鄰家女孩”的感覺；她與“卡戴珊小妹”肯達爾·詹娜都是時下最受歡迎的模特，但同時她們又是好閨蜜，有著令人羨慕的友情。

About Friendship

Kendall注1and I have only been…we grew up,

like, really close to each other. Our families are, you know, connected, and so, um, but we just never really got the1)opportunity, I guess, to2)hang out as kids. But we’ve only been friends for like a year now, um, and, and she’s one of my best friends and she’s so3)awesome.

Do you share modeling4)tips, or, like, “Oh my God, I

have to do this5)runway show, help!”

Yeah, kind of. I guess it’s more like, you know, yeah,

more like “Oh my God, I have to do this runway show, help!” Um, but also just being really excited for each other and supporting each other. And, um, our6)beauty7)contracts8)came around the same time, so it was really fun to9)celebrate that together. I was always, like,10)kinda told that, when I was becoming a model, like, don’t live with a model ’cause you get competitive, etc, etc. But I don’t really fnd that I get competitive with my friends. Especially, you know, with someone like Kendall, we look nothing alike, so someone that’s gonna want a Kendall is not gonna want a Gigi. And that’s just, even with my sister, you know, there’s a lot of, um,11)tabloids12)making up that we’re in this13)rivalry. Um, and, yeah, so I guess the hardest part about being friends with models is that, when you have a big secret like a Maybelline注2contract, you can’t tell them. Um, and, like, I think that’s, like, the big, the hardest part about being friends with other models. It’s like we can’t really talk about what we’re doing until it comes out, and then we’re all14)pretty excited for each other, and, yeah.

Thank you. Um, I mean, I’ve played volleyball since I was in sixth grade, and I went to junior Olympic22)qualifers for volleyball.

About Family

Your Mom, I know recently she talked about this horrible health26)struggle she’s sort of gone through. How have you been able to sort of support her through it?

Um, you know, it’s hard. Because especially with something like Lyme disease注4, where they, not a lot of people know a lot about it, especially doctors, so they don’t really know how to help medical27)wise. And so it’s really hard for me and my28)siblings to know how we can help. Um, but I guess, just, you know, being supportive is the best way that we can do it. Um, and, you know, for example, she’s been in29)Korea for three weeks now working with a doctor there.

關于友誼

●吉吉：肯達爾和我已經……我們一起長大，彼此真的很親密。我們的家庭是，你知道，彼此聯系很緊密的那種，但我們小時候卻沒有太多的時間相處。我們只當了大約一年的朋友，但她現在已經成了我最好的朋友之一，她真的很棒。

●主持人甲：你們會分享一些關于模特職業(yè)的內幕消息嗎，還是像那種，“我的天啊，我要去走這場秀了，哇！”

●吉吉：對，差不多吧。我想更多會像是，你知道，對，更多的是：“我的天啊，我要去走這場秀了，哇！”但我們真的很為對方感到開心，也會為對方加油打氣。而且我們總會同時接到美容產品的合同，所以兩人一起慶祝真的很開心。當我成為了模特后，總有人告訴我說，不要和模特住在一起，因為那樣會存在競爭，類似這樣那樣的話。但我真不覺得我與我的朋友們存在競爭。特別是，你知道，和像肯達爾這種女孩一起，我們看起來一點兒都不像，所以要請肯達爾的人就不會需要吉吉。這就像是，甚至是和我妹妹，你知道，都會有很多捏造的小報消息說我們在競爭。而且，對，所以我想與模特做朋友最難的一點是，當你有一個大秘密—像是簽了美寶蓮這類的大合同，你不能告訴她們。而且，好像是，我覺得這似乎就是與其他模特做朋友最難的地方。就好比我們不能說起我們在做什么，直到它可以對外公布為止，然后我們就會發(fā)自內心地替對方感到開心，就是這樣。

關于名聲

●主持人乙：但最為瘋狂的，就是你已經是時下最熱門的模特了，沒有人能比你更熱門了。

●吉吉：這我不太清楚。不過謝謝你。

●主持人乙：而你對此很謙遜，我很喜歡你這一點，而且你還有你的學業(yè)。你手頭還有那么多事要做，但仍然有一些人想要批評你……批評你的體形—這令我感到十分詫異，因為你的體形看起來已經是如此完美。

●吉吉：謝謝。我想說的是，我從六年級起就開始打排球，而且我還參加過青年奧運會的排球預選賽。所以我一直都是一名運動員，而且我一直……這就是我一直以來的體形，我也并不覺得這樣……這就是我。你知道，我一直在社交媒體上回擊這種批評，并為自己發(fā)聲。這一切都是因為，當我這樣做時，無論是維密天使還是體形豐滿的模特都會給我留言……

●主持人乙：嗯嗯。

●吉吉：……每個人都會遇到這樣的問題，你知道，不管她們是誰，而我認為這正是問題所在。我的想法就是，人們需要意識到他們正在談論的這個人，不管這個人是不是公眾人物……

●主持人乙：嗯嗯。

●吉吉：……都是真實存在的人，像這樣躲在計算機背后對別人評頭論足是說不過去的。

關于家庭

●主持人甲：我知道你母親最近談到了正在折磨著她的嚴重的健康問題。你是怎么支持她熬過去的呢？

●吉吉：嗯，你知道，這很困難。因為尤其是像萊姆病這樣的疾病，對它有所了解的人并不多，特別是醫(yī)生，所以他們真的不知道該怎么做醫(yī)療建議。因此我和我的兄弟姐妹們真的不知道該怎么幫上忙。但我覺得，我們一直支持鼓勵著她，就是最好的幫忙。而且，你知道，比如說，她現在在韓國呆了三周與醫(yī)生一同努力。而且，就像是，當我有拍攝工作時，若能在午休時間與她視頻聊天，跟她分享我這一天過得怎么樣，你能感受到這對她來說有多么重要。我覺得，即便是像這樣的小事也能幫助她撐過去。
