How Gigi Hadid Gave a Nod to BFF Taylor Swift During Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show

Gigi Hadid has a secret to reveal on the runway.

After all, the supermodel paid homage to close pal Taylor Swift while strutting down the catwalk at the 2024 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show Oct. 15.

Gigi kicked off the show by being raised from a platform under the catwalk, just like Taylor does when opening her Eras Tour show. The model even raised her arm and waved to the crowd, reminiscent of the singer during her Lover era. 

As one fan wrote on X, “Gigi Hadid doing Taylor Swift’s ICONIC ‘OH HI’ at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show.”

Donning a silky pink lingerie look and angel wings, Gigi also seemingly channeled her bestie while striking poses on the runway, before closing out her walk by being lowered under the stage once again, as Taylor does at the Eras Tour.

In fact, Gigi teased the concert-like moment just hours before the show.

“There’s something on the runway tonight that is new for at least me on this runway,” the 29-year-old told Entertainment Tonight ahead of the event. “There’s an aspect to it that I was trained to do by Taylor on her tour. In one of her rehearsals, she was like, ‘I’m going to show you how we do this.’ And now I’m using it tonight.”
