There’s so much that I’m not looking forward to in the coming weeks, months and years. One of those things is the Victoria’s Secret Christmas show on December 5. Vicky’s is going hard with the Instamodels, even at the expense of some of their more established models. The idea, I believe, is an attempt to rebrand Victoria’s Secret as the go-to brand for teens and young women who will be influenced by seeing Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid in cheap lingerie and wings. I came of age in a time when Gisele Bundchen and Stephanie Seymour were Victoria’s Secret models, so this development upsets me. As it turns out, the other VS models kind of hate it too. Or, at least according to Star, other VS models sort of hate Gigi Hadid.

The prettiest people can do the ugliest things – just ask poor Gigi Hadid, who finds herself totally shunned by her fellow Victoria’s Secret models.

“They’ve frozen Gigi out,” says a VS insider. “They’re jealous over her silver-spoon upbringing and how easy she’s had it – they’ve been slaving away for years, but she dates a couple of pop stars and boom, she’s an It Girl? They’re over her.”

But for some reason, Bella – who dated The Weeknd – is getting a much warmed reception at the annual lingerie show.

“She’s been given the industry stamp of approval because she’s naturally much skinnier and more ‘high fashion’ so the girls accept her,” explains the insider.

And despite the smiles you’ll see strutting down the runway on Dec. 5, Gigi’s peers weren’t hiding their contempt for her during rehearsals.

“Gigi is convinced she heard one of them making horse noises and laughing at her backstage,” snipes the source, adding that the other Angels were just as mean last year. “They call her fat and overrated.”

Part of me thinks this is crap, and another part of me thinks it’s totally possible. I think of Gigi Hadid as one of the popular girls in the celebrity ecosystem – she bridges the divide between Taylor Swift’s squad and the Kardashian-Jenner family. Her career is growing by leaps and bounds and she keeps getting major magazine covers and contracts. But maybe all of that is the reason why she’s unpopular among models. They see her success as undeserved. But why like Bella and not Gigi? Bella has a more editorial look, for sure. But as far as talent and nepotism, Bella and Gigi are at the same level.

Also: “Gigi is convinced she heard one of them making horse noises and laughing at her backstage” – I believe that’s about how Gigi stomps on the runway. They’re not saying she looks like a horse. They’re saying she walks like a horse.
