Which is why my heart warmed when I reluctantly clicked on a link to Gigi and Kendall doing a dramatic reading of Justin Bieber’s song “Baby,” because Gigi Hadid seemed just as upset as I was about what was about to happen.

And you know what?
It was scary.
But you know what else?
They both looked incredible, and isn’t that all we want out of models anyway?
