If you didn’t already know, Gigi Hadid had a frightening run-in when she was leaving the Max Mara show during Milan Fashion Week. After she got through a crowd of paparazzi, a man—later identified as Vitalii Sediuk—grabbed her.
Apparently, this isn’t the first time the Ukranian TV personality has gone after celebrities. In 2011, after Madonna told the Daily Mail she “absolutely loath[es] hydrangeas,” he got her flowers. He also tried to stick his head up America Ferrera’s dress on the Cannes red carpet in 2014, which is 100 percent not okay. To make matters even worse, he’s tried to kiss Will Smith and Miranda Kerr; although Kerr brushed it off, Smith slapped him in the face.
Hadid responded to Sediuk’s grab with an elbow to his face, but someone needs to let him know this behavior is absolutely unacceptable. Harassment in any form is no joke, and something needs to be done about it.
