Zayn Malik Leaps To Gigi Hadid’s Defence After Fans Accuse Her Of ‘Being Racist’ In Snapchat Video

It's all kicked off.

Zayn Malik has taken to Twitter to defend girlfriend Gigi Hadid, after she found herself on the receiving end of quite the backlash following her antics in a Snapchat video recently.

The model was hanging with friends and sister Bella at the time, when she was filmed holding up a Buddha cookie and squinting her eyes to impersonate the face.

This did not go down well with fans, who understandably thought it was anything but funny and actually quite offensive.

So of course Zayn leapt to her defence, tweeting thathe knows for a fact thatshe ‘likes asians’.

But he wasn’t done there, later adding:

“People's nerve to call me ignorant, when any chance they get I'm a terrorist!! to be a racist goes against my very existence..

“So please don't try to educate me,” he wrote.

Gigi has yet to speak out about the whole situation, instead focussing on her new Tommy Hilfiger collection which drops later this week.
