Gigi Hadid leaves Twitter after Elon Musk's takeover
Gigi Hadid is one the latest high-profile Twitter users to deactivate their account after Elon Musk’s $44bn takeover of the social media platform.
The model, 27, shared a post from a former employee of the company, adding her take on why she left the site.
“[Twitter] is becoming more and more of a cesspool of hate and bigotry, and it’s not a place I want to be a part of,” Hadid said.
Hadid joins the likes of Shonda Rhimes, Jameela Jamil, and Toni Braxton in quitting the platform.
