Gigi Hadid Addresses Keeping Daughter Khai's Face Off Instagram
Originally appeared on E! Online
Gigi Hadid is grateful for fans' support of her and 's decision to maintain their daughter's privacy on social media.
The supermodel readdressed the issue after a person commented on her April 11 Instagram post that included pics of Khai, 4, riding a bicycle and tracing letters in a workbook.
"Even without showing her face, we can feel how loved and special Khai is," the user wrote, to which Gigi responded, "This means a lot :)."
In 2021, the 29-year-old had shared a plea to fans and the press about Khai's privacy.
"You know we have never intentionally shared our daughters face on social media," Gigi wrote on her Instagram Stories at the time. "Our wish is that she can choose how to share herself with the world when she comes of age, and that she can live as normal of a childhood as possible, without worrying about a public image that she has not chosen."

Gigi continued, "It would mean the world to us, as we take our daughter to see and explore NYC and the world, if you would PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE blur her face out of the images, if and when she is caught on camera. I know it's an extra effort- but as a new mom, I just want the best for my baby, as all parents do."
In addition to occasionally sharing pics of Khai with her face hidden, Gigi has also shared more insight into her life as a mom in press interviews.
Earlier this month, she spoke about her and her daughter's recent first visit to Medieval Times Dinner & Tournament in New Jersey.
"Khai got very into it," Gigi said of the April 8 episode of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. 'You can make kids a hundred different things in a week, and when we get there, why is her favorite chicken the one at Medieval Times? She ate so much chicken!"

Lainey Wilson reveals her choice of funeral song
Lainey Wilson wants the same funeral song as her grandparents. The 33-year-old singer has revealed that when her time comes, she wants mourners to listen to an "old hymn called Beulah Land" because it has become something of a family tradition. Asked to name the song she would like played at her funeral, she told The Observer: "An old hymn called Beulah Land that both my grandpa and my grandma had when they passed away, because they both said they wanted it played at their funeral." Meanwhile, the Heart Like A Truck hitmaker started her career by impersonating Hannah Montana - who was the fictional pop star played by Miley Cyrus in the late 2000s in the Disney Channel sitcom of the same name - but admitted that these days, she can no longer bear to listen to the theme song from the hit series. She said: "The song I can no longer listen to [is] The Best of Both Worlds by Hannah Montana, because I used to be a Hannah Montana impersonator. It's not because I don't love the song any more, it's just that I sang it so many times, I'm never going to crank it back up." Lainey previously admitted that she is a huge fan of Miley - who since her days as Hannah Montana has gone on to an incredibly succesful solo career in her own right and recently released her ninth studio album Something Beautiful - and remembered that impersonating the wig-wearing singer became a "job" for her in her teenage years. She told E! News: "I love Miley Cyrus, I used to impersonate Hannah Montana when I was little. I did that for like five years. That was my middle school, high school job. "Every weekend I would do birthday parties, fairs, festivals, St. Jude, all of it. I would open up as Lainey Wilson for Hannah Montana."

Nezza says she sang national anthem in Spanish at Dodger Stadium against team's wishes
Singer and social media personality Nezza sang the national anthem in Spanish at Dodger Stadium on Saturday night. And, according to a video the performer later posted to social media, she did so against the wishes of the Dodgers organization. In a video Nezza, whose full name is Vanessa Hernández, posted to TikTok, an unidentified Dodgers employee is heard telling her before Saturday's performance that 'we are going to do the song in English today, so I'm not sure if that wasn't relayed.' Then, the video cuts to Nezza — who was wearing a Dominican Republic shirt — signing a Spanish version of the Star-Spangled Banner on the field ahead of the Dodgers' win against the San Francisco Giants. The video's caption: 'So I did it anyway.' In a separate video, Nezza said the version of the song she sang was commissioned in 1945 by the U.S. State Department under President Franklin D. Roosevelt, and that she wanted to sing it amid the recent unrest in Los Angeles stemming from raids by ICE agents. 'I didn't think I would be met with any sort of no, especially because we're in LA and with everything happening,' she said. 'But today out of all days, I just could not believe when she [the Dodgers employee] walked in and told me 'no.' But I just felt like I needed to do it. Para mi gente.' The Dodgers did not respond to a request for comment. In general, the Dodgers have largely been quiet about the raids and resulting protests in the city over the last week. Manager Dave Roberts has been asked about the situation twice. On Monday, he said that, 'I just hope that we can be a positive distraction for what people are going through in Los Angeles right now.' On Friday, he offered little further comment: 'I know that when you're having to bring people in and deport people, all the unrest, it's certainly unsettling for everyone,' he said, 'But I haven't dug enough and can't speak intelligently on it.' Veteran Kiké Hernández spoke out on Instagram on Saturday, writing that 'I cannot stand to see our community being violated, profiled, abused and ripped apart. ALL people deserve to be treated with respect, dignity and human rights.' The Dodgers, however, have not issued any team-level statement, and a club executive told The Times' Dylan Hernández on Friday that they did not plan to make any comment.
