" Gigi Hadid is a really, really ridiculously good-looking model. Seriously. Look at her. But being gorgeous doesn&amp;#039;t stop idiots on the internet being dicks. So Gigi, despite quite clearly being hugely attractive, has faced quite a bit of body-shaming recently. Ugh.  As most of us would be, Gigi is pretty fed up of the whole thing. She wrote a powerful message to her haters on Instagram, explaining that the negativity had started to affect her, but she refused to let it change what she does.  &amp;quot;So many people are quick to comment negative opinions this month,&amp;quot; she wrote. &amp;quot;Yes, judgment on social media comes from people who, 99% of the time, have no idea what they&amp;#039;re talking about, but I&amp;#039;m human, and I&amp;#039;m not going to lie, I did let the negativity get to me a little. &amp;quot;No, I don&amp;#039;t have the same body type as the other models in shows. No, I don&amp;#039;t think I&amp;#039;m the best at any given show. Yes, I want a unique walk but also know I have to improve. No, I&amp;#039;m not the first or last model of my type in this industry. You can make up all the reasons you think I am where I am, but really, I&amp;#039;m a hard worker that&amp;#039;s confident in myself, one that came at a time where the fashion industry was ready for a change. &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m just doing my job. I represent a body image that wasn&amp;#039;t accepted in high-fashion before, and I&amp;#039;m very lucky to be supported by the designers, stylists, and editors that I am: ones that know this is fashion, it&amp;#039;s art; it can never stay the same. It&amp;#039;s 2015. But if you&amp;#039;re not one of those people, don&amp;#039;t take your anger out on me.  &amp;quot;Yes, I have boobs, I have abs, I have a butt, I have thighs, but I&amp;#039;m not asking for special treatment. I&amp;#039;m fitting into the sample sizes. Your mean comments don&amp;#039;t make me want to change my body, they don&amp;#039;t make me want to say no to the designers that ask me to be in their shows, and they definitely don&amp;#039;t the designers opinions of me. If they want me to be in their show, I&amp;#039;m in it; if they don&amp;#039;t, I&amp;#039;m not. That&amp;#039;s just how it is and how it will be. &amp;quot;If you don&amp;#039;t like it, don&amp;#039;t follow me, don&amp;#039;t watch me, cause I&amp;#039;m not going anywhere. If I didn&amp;#039;t have the body I do, I wouldn&amp;#039;t have the career that I do. I love that I can be sexy. I&amp;#039;m proud of it.&amp;quot;        A photo posted by Gigi Hadid (@gigihadid) on Sep 28, 2015 at 4:25am PDT     YES. The Instagram post has been flooded with comments praising Gigi and sending her plenty of well-deserved applause emoji. Bravo to her - let&amp;#039;s hope this will reduce some of the body shaming themed nastiness online. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
