Gigi Hadid and Blake Lively made a striking fashion statement at the Deadpool & Wolverine movie premiere in New York City. Blake donned an Atelier Versace red catsuit, reminiscent of Marvel's antihero Deadpool, while Gigi opted for a Miu Miu ensemble resembling X-Men's Wolverine.
The movie, set for release on July 24, features a collaboration between Deadpool and Wolverine as they unite against a common enemy. The premiere saw Blake and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, sharing a sweet moment on the red carpet.
Addressing divorce rumors, Blake dismissed speculations about her relationship with Ryan, emphasizing their strong bond. The couple shares four children and continues to showcase their affection publicly.
Meanwhile, Bella Hadid, Gigi's sister, has reportedly sought legal counsel to potentially sue Adidas over a controversial campaign. The athletic brand faced criticism for selecting Bella, who has Palestinian and Dutch heritage, as the face of their SL72 campaign.
The campaign, intended to commemorate the Munich Olympics, drew backlash from the American Jewish Committee for its insensitivity towards the tragic events of the 1972 Olympics. Adidas has pledged to revise the campaign in response to the outcry.
Gigi and Bella, known for their advocacy for Palestinian rights, have clarified that supporting Palestine does not equate to being anti-Israel or antisemitic. The Hadid sisters, descendants of 1948 Nakba survivors, have consistently championed their stance against genocide.
In light of the controversy, Bella expressed disappointment over Adidas' campaign, citing a misalignment with her personal beliefs. The brand's decision to associate the campaign with the Munich Massacre has sparked a reevaluation of their marketing strategy.
