Gigi Hadid collects top prize at Guys' Choice Awards
Supermodel Gigi Hadid had to scramble together an acceptance speech as she picked up the Our New Girlfriend prize at the 10th annual Guys' Choice Awards on Saturday (04Jun16).
The stunner was the recipient of the honour previously awarded to Kate Upton, Chrissy Teigen, Hannah Davis, and Emily Ratajkowski, and admitted she was not as prepared as she would have liked to be.
Looking nervous, the 21-year-old said, "I thought I was gonna come
and wing it (my speech) and be good, but then I woke up early this
morning and thought, 'Gigi, there is no way you're going to be calm
or cool in front of Kobe (Bryant) ever in your life', so I called a
friend and I said, 'What do I say that is funny?'
"(She said), 'Try and think of something you did mean to a crush in
middle school or try and make a joke about that'. But I was like,
'I have always been a good girlfriend, even when in middle school
when I have had crushes I have always been kind of nice'."
Ironically, the Victoria's Secret angel accepted the Our New
Girlfriend award days after reportedly parting ways with singer
Zayn Malik, 23, after seven months of dating, but she showed the
former One Direction star is still close to her heart when she
stepped out on Friday night (03Jun16), wearing a necklace with a
'Z' pendant.
She also posted a Snapchat video of herself lip syncing to Malik’s
Pillowtalk hit.
Neither she, Zayn, nor their representatives have addressed stories
suggesting the couple has broken up, and now sources close to the
pair insist the split rumours are false.
One insider tells blogger Perez Hilton, "Gigi and Zayn are still
together. The break-up reports are completely false."
Meanwhile, other winners at the Spike TV Guys' Choice Awards
included Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, who claimed the Guys of the
Decade prize.
Joking about their latest accolades, Ben told the audience at Sony
Pictures Studios in Culver City, California, "I think it goes
without saying that this is an award Matt and I have been dreaming
about since we were little boys.
"I did (film flop) Gigli and Matt did that Liberace movie and all
of a sudden it all seemed out of reach. Then I did (Batman v
Superman) and all of a sudden it was back in reach again."
The Martian star Matt pretended to mix up the trophy honour,
calling himself and Ben the "D**kheads of the Decade".
He added, "We will cherish this, and we we want to recognise some
of the other nominees, some of the dudes who weren’t quite as
decade-worthy: George Clooney and Brad Pitt", prompting his pal to
quip, "F**k you guys.”
Julia Roberts was named Woman of the Decade at the Guys' Choice
Awards, while her ex-boyfriend Kiefer Sutherland picked up the
Outlaw prize, Anna Kendrick claimed the Hot And Funny trophy, and
Olivia Munn won the coveted Jean-Claude Gahd Dam (sic) prize.
