“No, I don’t have the same body type as other models in shows. No, I don’t think I’m the best at any given shows. Yes, I want to have a unique walk but I also know I have to improve. No, I’m not the first or the last model of my type in this industry.” (PHOTOS: Gigi Hadid Goes Topless For Insanely Sexy Shoot After Barrage Of Criticism)
