Balenciaga and Adidas partner with anti-Israeli model Gigi Hadid after parting with Kayne West
Balenciaga and Adidas, the latter of which was founded by members of the Nazi party, have partnered with vocally anti-Israel supermodel Bella Hadid to front their latest collaboration, prompting accusations of hypocrisy only weeks after both companies parted ways with Kanye West over his antisemitism. [...]This is some of the worst hypocrisy by companies that'll now have to be boycotted altogether, if they refuse to end their employment of Hadid as they did with West. Now, Adidas is no better than Volkswagen and BMW, who also have a history of Nazi connections, and this just compounds a most reprehensible image they're achieving as a result of their double-standards.
Balenciaga and Adidas have come under fire for hiring Hadid as the face of its new collaboration, the second of its kind.
Arsen Ostrovsky, human rights attorney and CEO of The International Legal Forum, a global coalition of lawyers which spearheaded a campaign demanding that Adidas end its partnership with Kanye, said hiring Hadid immediately after dropping Kanye was only “motivated by money.”
“That they simply just replaced one antisemite for another, only underscores that these brands were never motivated by doing the right thing and showing leadership in tackling racial hatred, but rather only care about their profits,” Ostrovsky told Breitbart News.
“Kanye and Hadid are no different, both engage in antisemitism and need to be called out, not given a global platform by international brands,” he went on.
