Details on Yolanda Hadid’s New Modeling Photo
Yolanda, who just turned 60 years old this year, took to her Instagram Feed on July 31, where she posted her Cat Woman-inspired cover shot and photo spread from her latest shoot with Sorbet Magazine. Yolanda can be seen in the spread looking like a vintage rock star, manning a stage, rocking a blonde mullet, wearing a full fishnet outfit, and owning the microphone like a boss.
This shoot, according to Sorbet’s Instagram account, was “inspired by rock-pop icons of the ’80s, who were always equal parts artists and activists, who sang about love and spoke out in support of humanity.”
While Yolanda never put out her own single (although she has starred in a music video or two), she absolutely loved the shoot. “Rock star for the day…,” she captioned the post.
Gigi Hadid Reacts to Yolanda’s Sorbet Magazine modeling photos
Yolanda’s oldest daughter, Gigi, took to the comments where she cheered on her mom. “Major!!” she wrote.
We have to say, she isn’t wrong!
Old Photos of Yolanda Hadid as a Young Model
Of course Yolanda would be a natural at modeling — the Holland native started when she was a teenager after all. “At the age of 16, I was discovered by Eileen Ford,” she explained in a confessional interview during RHOBH Season 3, Episode 1. “The next thing I knew, I was on the runway in Paris and Milan, and my life as a model started.”
Although these photos are not exactly the same theme as her newest shoot, she looks just as stunning. She is channeling her inner country musician in this one.
But, when it came to her daughters’ modeling careers, she wanted to make sure that they didn’t get started too soon. Instead, she worked hard to create grounded, humble models.
“They were not allowed to work until 17, until you knew who they are,” Yolanda told Allure in 2014. “I was 16 when I got started, but I needed to work. It was a different situation for them. I took each of them on their seventeenth birthday and found them an agency that was right for them. It ended up being the same agent for both, IMG. And I told them to work hard.”
Yolanda knew first hand how hard the modeling agency could be. “It can be tough being judged about how you look for your whole life,” she told Allure in 2014.
But, she raised some top models and continues to succeed herself. Her latest cover shoot is proof of that.
