I tend to dislike naturally beautiful people (because I'm petty) but @GiGiHadid with the elbow? Come through!! 😍💪

And Gigi herself went on to thank everyone for their support – and spread this message to other women.
GIRLS, prepare yourselves so that, if you ever feel in danger, MUSCLE MEMORY can fight back for you. Thank you all so much for ur support.❤️
Girl power FTW. 💪
