Gigi Hadid Parodied Melania Trump While Hosting The AMAs & We’re Cringing

 

One of the biggest supermodels in the world is hosting a music awards night! What? You think that sounds inexplicably boring and probably not the best casting? Uh huh, yeah, same here. 

But look – it’s Gigi Hadid hosting the American Music Awards rn, and she’s well-known for being a model with an excellent personality and a decent sense of humour. 

Maybe it’ll be okay? Turns out, nup.

It’s on as we speak, and one of Gigi‘s first comedy bits was to parody the soon-to-be First Lady Melania Trump. 

A few things wrong with this:

– Are there any jokes about the Trump family actually left to write? There’s been so many. All the jokes must be done by now. No jokes left.

– Donald Trump might try to do a murder to you.

Gigi is apparently not scared of bland comedy or getting murder done to her, because she persisted. 

Here’s the end result:

We could try to forgive her on the basis of “Look, it’s her first time doing comedy, and hey, look, at least she did original jokes!”

Well, no – she’s essentially attempting to copy this exact meme which was probably the most viral, shared-around meme during the last days of the US Election:

Which is kind of ironic, since the entire gag is based around Melania plagiarising. 

Everyone’s confused:

Tomorrow morning @realDonaldTrump will tweet demanding Gigi Hadid to apologize for the Melania Trump impression. #AMAs ??

Never knew who Gigi Hadid was before tonight. After 37 minutes of enduring her insufferable personality, I wish I still didn’t #AMAs

i don’t know what makes me more uncomfortable Gigi Hadid’s impression of Melania Trump or Melania Trump herself… #AMAs
