Bradley Cooper’s Girlfriend Is under Fire for ‘Horrible’ Opening of the Victoria’s Secret Show – Here’s Why

Gigi Hadid opened the 2024 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show runway, showcasing a soft, feminine look. She wore a satin pink bodysuit with a plunging neckline. The outfit had an assembled detailing at the waist, adorned with crystal embellishments.

However, the highlight of her outfit was the oversized feathered Victoria’s Secret angel wings. Styled in a soaring, ethereal design, the wings created a stunning visual as they opened up gracefully toward the end of her walk.

The wings on the ensemble added an almost magical touch to her appearance. Her look was completed with Rene Caovilla heels, enhancing the overall elegance.

Fans quickly shared their thoughts on Gigi’s appearance at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show after her runway walk was shared online. One fan, touching on both Gigi and her sister Bella Hadid, who also graced the runway, commented, “There is no VS energy in both of them, sorry.”

Another user, who felt something was off with Gigi’s walk, wrote, “Sorry but she is not a show opener. Zero poise or charisma.”

Some felt her walk lacked energy, noting, “Horrible opening. She cannot walk. Candice should have opened.” Another fan with similar views remarked, “Worst opening walk possible Gigi, no walk or energy👎👎.”

A user who observed Gigi Hadid’s mood noted, “She looks tired and bored😮.” Others criticized her catwalk, with one saying, “She look [sic] great but a terrible walk, really.”

One more user concurred, “Terrible catwalk! Stiff, lackluster… ! Should’ve started it with one of the veterans.. ! [sic]” Some users analyzed her personality, “Gigi is so boring. pretentious! She doesnt have that supermodel-like wonder or mystery to her [sic].”

Another fan simply labeled her as “Overrated.” One commenter critiqued her skills, “Zero talent poor thing. This industry turned into a joke.”

Someone even pointed out the burden of the wings, “No one’s jaws dropped. She could barely walk with those heavy wings on / very awkward, not graceful. They should’ve given her a lower heel if the wings were gonna be a problem.”

Not all comments were negative, though. A fan, who loved Gigi’s walk on the runway, exclaimed, “Gigi was a Hit for me😍😍she owned the entire show.”

Another fan gushed at her beauty, “Gigi looks amazing 🔥🔥🔥.” One admirer praised her look, “I loved this outfit and the wings when she released it towards the end. Beautiful.”

Gigi had shared excitement about returning to the Victoria’s Secret runway before hitting the 2024 walk. She posted some of her favorite Victoria’s Secret show moments over the years, writing that each moment was a “dream come true.”

Gigi penned, “I’m so excited to do it again tomorrow, with the most incredible, dedicated, creative VS Team & with so many women I love and some I grew up watching. It is an honor.”

The supermodel also had a short interview before her walk, where she was asked if her boyfriend, Bradley Cooper, would make an appearance. Gigi responded, “Oh my goodness. He is watching from home tonight. He is on dad duty, but, so supportive.”

Although Bradley Cooper wasn’t going to attend, Gigi shared that some of her friends would be there to support her. She mentioned that pals Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce would likely cheer her on but from their couches.

Gigi revealed that Taylor even helped her prepare for a special moment she planned to showcase on the runway. This training paid off as Gigi gave a nod to Taylor’s iconic Eras Tour by waving while making her entrance during her walk.

Gigi’s return to the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show runway marks another chapter in her enduring connection with the brand, which started back in 2015.

Beyond modeling, she’s also established herself as a fashion entrepreneur, making a name for herself with her knitwear label, Guest In Residence, known for its emphasis on sustainability and thoughtful designs.
