Yolanda Hadid Claps Back at Rebecca Romijn for Her Supermodel Comments
"They accomplished more at half your age in the fashion industry," the #RHOBH mom tweeted.
We all know Yolanda Hadid is a #ProudMommy, so if you talk about her children, she's going to protect them like a bear with her cubs. We've seen that this season of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and now Rebecca Romijn has learned that after some comments she made to ET earlier this week.
In response to a question about her "thoughts on the new generation of models such as Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid, who are more famous for their social media presence than their runway experience," Rebecca criticized the fashion industry's acceptance of "social media stars" setting "our style standards." Rebecca later clarified her comments on Twitter saying, "hey @kendalljenner @gigihadid don't believe the #clickbait. Never talked smack about you. Both amazing & beautiful."
Still, Yolanda was quick to come to the defense of her daughter Gigi and her bestie Kendall. "Kind, hard working and they accomplished more at half your age in the fashion industry," Yolanda tweeted in response to Rebecca's above tweet.
Even though Rebecca said she wasn't calling out Gigi and Kendall specifically, Yolanda still thought her comments were shady. "[D]id you even bother to see what she said on [Entertainment Tonight]? No need 2 throw shade on hard-working children," she tweeted in response to one user.
Yolanda continued to defend Gigi and Kendall as one Twitter user accused them of getting ahead thanks to their famous families. "It's THEIR hard work and daily commitment to their profession that got them where they R today #NoParentsInvolved," Yolanda tweeted in response.
Rebecca's comments didn't prevent Yolanda and Kendall from having a happy time celebrating Gigi's 21st birthday Thursday night.
