“Yeah, I’m an athletic person,” Hadid said in her latest magazine interview. “But I love my body because I know what it’s been through to be what it is, and honestly I’m not going to change for someone that is depressed about their life.”
“The Victoria’s Secret Angels aren’t going anywhere. I’m not going anywhere. Plus-sized models aren’t going anywhere.” (RELATED: Swimsuit Model Blackmailed By Hackers: ‘We’ll Leak Your Personal Photos’)
