Gigi Hadid branded racist after 'making fun of Asians'

Supermodel Gigi Hadid is facing backlash after she appeared to mock Asian people on an Instagram post.
In a video shared by her sister Bella Hadid, the 21-year-old model can be seen holding up what looks like a cookie depicting the face of Buddha, before mimicking the face on the cookie by squinting her eyes.
Though Bella has removed the clip after many began blasting Gigi, it has since spread online on Twitter.
"This is y'all woke Palestine queen? Gigi out here mocking Asian people. I would say she's cancelled but she never started (sic)," wrote one user who shared the video on the social media.

"So you know this is racist right?" said another.
