Bella Hadid wears ‘absolutely nothing’ on first magazine cover since yearlong modeling break

Bella Hadid is a cover girl once again.

The supermodel draped herself in nothing but a poster on the cover of Perfect magazine Tuesday, channeling a 1978 image of Blondie’s Debbie Harry.

Hadid, 27, sits on a chair in the first of four spring/summer 2024 cover shots — her first magazine since taking a break from the business amid her health battle — covering herself up with a white poster reading “Absolutely nothing. Nothing at all.”

While the catwalk star, who took a modeling hiatus to undergo treatment for Lyme disease last year, went bare on top, she didn’t totally stick to the poster’s message, wearing a tiny pair of black briefs.

Hadid accessorized with a pair of huge gold hoop earrings, wearing a heavy amount of bright pink blush with an otherwise barely-there makeup look.

According to the magazine, the shoot was “inspired by an image of Debbie Harry performing in 1978, wearing as a dress a poster she had torn from the wall outside the venue.”

While this marks Hadid’s return to magazine covers, she’s starred in other campaigns since her 2023 modeling break, during which she also broke up with her boyfriend of two years, Marc Kalman.

In August, the sober supermodel shared a behind-the-scenes TikTok from her first job since her time off, and she looked unrecognizable in September 2023 as she posed in an extraterrestrial-themed Marc Jacobs shoot.

While the star has made some low-key appearances, including at niece Khai Malik’s birthday party and out and about with new love interest Adan Banuelos, she’s stayed mostly out of the spotlight until now.

Fans will have to wait and see if 2024 brings Bella back to the runway.

Gigi and Bella Hadid face death threats for supporting Palestine

The Hadids have openly condemned the oppression of Palestinians by the state of Israel for some time, clashing with the state’s official social media accounts on more than one occasion. Amid the current escalation of violence in Gaza, things are no different. In fact, Israel’s social media tactics – including twisting statements made by Gigi Hadid – has now been credited with influencing reported death threats against the entire Hadid family.

At the weekend Gigi Hadid, who is half-Palestinian, shared an infographic to her Instagram Stories that urged followers not to conflate support for the Palestinian people with antisemitism or support for Hamas. “There is nothing Jewish about the Israeli government’s treatment of Palestinians,” reads the original post. “Condemning the Israeli government is not antisemitic and supporting Palestinians is not supporting Hamas.”

Shortly after, the official Instagram account for the state of Israel weighed in on the statement, posting a different version of the infographic, edited to say that “there is nothing valiant about Hamas’ massacre of Israelis”. “Condemning Hamas for what it is (ISIS) is not anti-Palestine,” the statement continues, “and supporting Israelis in their fight against barbaric terrorists is the right thing to do.”

The post also called out Gigi directly, saying: “Have you been sleeping the past week? Or are you just fine turning a blind eye to Jewish babies being butchered in their homes? Your silence has been very clear about where you stand. We see you.”

The Israeli government’s public response is typical of its tactics so far, which have often included latching onto celebrities or popular memes to spread its message and misinformation, as well as the use of dehumanising language that minimises the devastation of Gaza and the deaths of Palestinian people. It also overlooks the fact that Hadid has condemned the October 7 attacks on civilians by Hamas. “While I have hopes and dreams for Palestinians, none of them include the harm of a Jewish person,” she writes in a statement shared via Instagram on October 10. “The terrorising of innocent people is not in alignment with and does not do any good for the ‘Free Palestine’ movement.”

According to TMZ, Gigi Hadid has received a wave of death threats (alongside Bella, Anwar, and their parents) since speaking out against the Israeli government’s violence in Gaza. These have reportedly come via email, social media, and their personal phones, with their numbers leaked online over the last week. The content apparently includes graphic descriptions of their executions. Mohamed Hadid is said to be considering a report to the FBI, which has already recorded a spike in violence against both Jewish and Muslim Americans.

Following a familiar pattern, the surprise attacks by Hamas were quickly met with a disproportionate response from Israel’s Netanyahu government, which has continued over the course of the last week. Its airstrikes have killed thousands of Palestinians, reportedly targeting hospitals and ambulances, with almost half of Gaza’s population displaced from their homes. Critical resources, like water, food, and electricity, have also been blocked due to the Israeli government’s “complete siege” of the region.

Bella Hadid Posts Behind-the-Scenes Video from ‘First Day Back on Set’ After Health Struggles

The supermodel recently revealed that she’s “finally healthy” after “almost 15 years of invisible suffering” and various health struggles

Bella Hadid is back!

The supermodel, 26, revealed that she had her “first day back on set in 5 months” as she shared a behind-the-scenes video on TikTok Wednesday.

Her return comes days after she opened up about her long-term health struggles and said that she is “finally healthy” after “100+ days of Lyme, chronic disease, co-infection treatment [and] almost 15 years of invisible suffering.”

In the video, Hadid is seen sporting white lingerie as she spins in a make-up chair and mouths the lyrics to Dave and Central Cee’s track “Sprinter.”

Hairstyling tools and make-up can be seen in the background of the TikTok, with Hadid rocking long waves in her hair, gold eyeshadow and matte pink lips.

In a second TikTok, the star is joined by some fellow models and make-up artists to perform “Part of Your World” from Disney’s The Little Mermaid.

But after Hadid, who is wearing a white robe, begins the video by singing the lyrics, “Walking around on those — what do you call ’em?” the next person in the video wrongly sings the word “street” instead of “feet.”

She then moves the camera onto the next person who sings, “Flippin’ your fins, you don’t get too far,” but the following two people shrug and look blank, which causes Hadid to burst into laughter and throw her head back in her chair.

Three of them then correctly sing, “Walking around on those – what do you call ’em? Feet!”

“SOME people did NOT study their lines prior to rehearsal,” Hadid captioned the TikTok.

The supermodel candidly opened up about her health struggles in an Instagram post on Sunday, which featured a series of snapshots from her treatment and her medical notes.

“The little me that suffered would be so proud of grown me for not giving up on myself🫶🏼,” Hadid, who was diagnosed with Lyme disease in 2012, began in the post.

“Thankful to my mommy for keeping all of my medical records, sticking by me, never leaving my side, protecting, supporting, but most of all, believing me through all of this,” she continued in the caption of her mom Yolanda Hadid, who was also diagnosed with Lyme disease in 2012, along with brother Anwar Hadid.

Hadid added, “Living in this state, worsening with time and work while trying to make myself, my family and the people who support me, proud, had taken a toll on me in ways I can’t really explain. To be that sad and sick with the most blessings/privilege/opportunity/love around me was quite possibly the most confusing thing ever.”

“One thing I want to express to you all is that 1: I am okay and you do not have to worry, and 2: I wouldn’t change anything for the world,” she wrote. “If I had to go through all of this again, to get here, to this exact moment I’m in right now, with all of you, finally healthy, I would do it all again. It made me who I am today.”

“The universe works in the most painful and beautiful ways but I need to say that if you are struggling — it will get better. I promise. take a step away, stay strong, have faith in your path, walk in your truth and the clouds will start to clear up. I have so much gratitude for and perspective on life, this 100+ days of Lyme, chronic disease, [co-infection] treatment, almost 15 years of invisible suffering, was all worth it if I’m able to, God willing, have a lifetime of spreading love from a full cup, and being able to truly be myself, For the first time ever,” Hadid then said.

She concluded her post by noting that “as painful as this experience was, the outcome was the most enlightening experience of my life filled with new friends, new visions and a new brain.”

Bella Hadid and Marc Kalman Break Up After Two Years of Dating: ‘It Ran Its Course’

Amid taking some time off to address her health, ET has also learned that Bella Hadid and Marc Kalman have broken up.

A source tells ET that they broke up in the spring. The source added, “They were very in love, but the relationship ultimately ran its course and they decided to end things. Bella is a very nice person, but struggles with the pressures of fame.” The source added, “Bella is taking some much deserved time off to treat her Lyme disease. She is not in rehab and has never had an alcohol or drug problem. Her split from Marc was amicable and she is always someone who takes care of herself and has been very open about it.”

Earlier on Wednesday, a source confirmed to ET that the 26-year-old supermodel is getting daily treatment for her Lyme disease.

Bella’s breakup comes almost a year after a source told ET that Marc, an art director, was planning to pop the question. At the time, the source said Marc was planning to propose in the fall after they had been talking about getting engaged and having a wedding in California.

They confirmed their relationship in July 2021 (they were rumored to have been together since 2020) but kept their relationship on the down low.

After going public with their relationship, Bella and Marc were spotted vacationing together in Paris for Fashion Week and then partying it up in April 2022 for Gigi Hadid’s 27th birthday soiree in New York City. He had also met the family by then, as Bella’s parents, Yolanda and Mohamed Hadid, were also at the shindig.

Back in March, Bella celebrated five months of sobriety from alcohol, marking the occasion via her Instagram Story while celebrating in Las Vegas.

Bella Hadid Joins ‘Ramy’ Season 3 in Recurring Role, Her First on a Scripted Series

Supermodel Bella Hadid has joined the cast of Hulu’s “Ramy” as a recurring guest star in Season 3. Details have not yet been revealed on Hadid’s character or her relationship to the show’s other characters just yet.

“Ramy” reps the first credited scripted role for Hadid. The news comes as production gets underway on the third season of “Ramy,” the Emmy-nominated Hulu comedy that has also earned a Golden Globe for star Ramy Youssef.

“Ramy” also stars Laith Nakli, Hiam Abbass, Amr Waked, May Calamawy, Dave Merheje, Mohammed Amer and Steve Way. As “Ramy” returns, it continues the story of first-generation Egyptian American Ramy Hassan (Youssef) and his family.

Per its logline, “Ramy” continues to “bring a new perspective to the screen as it explores the challenges of what it’s like to be caught between a religious community who believes life is a moral test, and a millennial generation that doubts an afterlife even exists. In the third season, his family is forced to confront having lived a life dedicated to worldly concerns — and in some cases, lies — while Ramy all but abandons his spiritual journey, instead dedicating himself to him and his uncle’s diamond business.”

“Ramy” is written, directed, executive produced and created by Youssef. Other executive producers include Adel Kamal, Christopher Storer, Tyson Bidner, Amir Sulaiman, Jerrod Carmichael, co-creators Ari Katcher and Ryan Welch as well as Kate Thulin. The series is produced by A24.

Hadid, currently seen on the April 2022 cover of Vogue, has also appeared on the covers of French, Italian, British, Japanese, Chinese and other international editions of that magazine as well, and has also been seen on the covers of V Magazine, POP, Harper’s Bazaar and others. Bella currently holds contracts with Dior Cosmetics and Michael Kors. Her campaigns have included Fendi, Versace, Givenchy, Moschino, Calvin Klein and Missoni. She’s also co-founder and partner (with CEO Jen Batchelor) of Kin Euphorics, an alcohol-free alternative and general wellness drink. She has more than 50 million Instagram followers.

Hadid is represented by WME, IMG and The Lede Company.
