Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid Channel Their Inner Bieber to Perform Silly ‘Baby’ Cover

Justin Bieber hasn’t exactly been charming his audiences these days, so may we suggest this as more fun and lighthearted substitute: Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid covering “Baby.”


The model BFFs sometimes known as KenGi agreed to W magazine’s request that they do a dramatic reading of the pop star’s 2010 hit. They were the perfect counterparts for such a task with Kendall, the blandest Kardashian sibling (sorry Kourtney!), talking her way through it with little emotion interspersed with clips of Gigi, 21, just full on going for it.

We’re not sure if Hadid has picked up tips from her singer beau, Zayn Malik, or what, but she stole the show. She was adorable as she belted out the eye-rolling lyrics — and didn’t shy away from some air guitar, finger snapping, and pointing.

Meanwhile, Kendall, 20, did it while exhibiting mild irritation, which is how we imagine she does everything.

The catwalkers are very familiar with the “Baby” crooner — and not just from the iPods docked in their bedrooms back in their high school days when this song came out. They are friendly with him, hanging at Paris Fashion Week in 2014 — though maybe slightly less so after he unceremoniously dumped their pal Hailey Baldwin earlier this year.

In W’s recent interview with Kendall, she talked about her childhood crushes and listed the Biebs, saying he “was like the pop star of my time. I feel like I must have had a 12-year-old crush on him.” Though she quickly added, “Not anymore though!” In 2014, Hadid described Bieber as a “good friend” of hers.

So we’re sure Justin will be tickled by their cover — if he can take a break from his recurring temper tantrums long enough to enjoy it.
