— Victoria's Secret (@VictoriasSecret) October 29, 2015“What are you doing on November 9 and 10?,” teases executive producer Ed Razek.
To which Hadid replies in anticipation, “I don’t know”.
“Why don’t you come join us?” he says, causing the model to fall to the ground yelling, “really?!” before tearing up with joy.
“We [love] surprises so here’s a BIG one for @GiGiHadid at the #VSFashionShow castings! See you on the runway, Gigi,” Victoria’s Secret captioned the video.
The estastic model followed up by sharing her heartfelt reaction on Instagram.
“Couldn’t keep back my tears!!!!”
“Anyone that grew up with me knows that getting this show has been a dream of mine forever!”
“THANK YOU @victoriassecret & @ed_razek! One of the happiest moments of my life. #vsfashionshow2015”
The rising super model earned extra brownie points after silencing body-shamers during her recent catwalk appearances.
“I’m not going to lie, I did let the negativity get to me a little,” she confessed.
“No, I don’t have the same body type as the other models in shows.”
“No, I don’t think I’m the best at any given show.”
Standing her ground, she added, “Yes, I have boobs, I have abs, I have a butt, I have thighs, but I’m not asking for special treatment. Your mean comments don’t make me want to change my body.”
Victoria’s Secret veteran Candice Swanepoel said she foresaw the model’s fame.
“Gigi is definitely one of the girls that I see that I think is going to be huge,” she revealed to Fashionista.com earlier this year.
“The fact that she has so much experience with modelling from when she was a kid — you can see when someone is natural in front of the camera. She’s super bubbly and she’s got a great, full body. She’s exquisite.”
