KUALA LUMPUR: Many of KL’s socialites flocked to social media to show off their photos with 22-year-old supermodel Bella Hadid who was in town for an event hosted by Tag Heuer yesterday.
But you could say popular celebrities like Noor Neelofa Mohd Noor and Scha Al-Yahya were lucky enough to not only take photos with the Victoria Secret angel, but also hang out with her during an intimate dinner hosted by the luxury watch brand.
Through Neelofa’s Instagram stories, Hadid was seated opposite Neelofa and Scha Al-Yahya at the dinner table leaving them plenty of room to get to know one another.
Hadid, who appeared over the moon to be in town, was excited to devour into a traditionally wrapped Nasi Lemak, one of the dishes served for the night.
“We are having nasi lemak bungkus, roti jala, teh tarik with… Bella Hadid. No big deal,” said Neelofa.
“It was nice meeting you,” said Neelofa to Hadid in another Insta-story.
“I love you so much and I miss you already. We’ll have a big dinner date next time,” replied Hadid to Neelofa.
Meanwhile, Scha Al-Yahya joked on her Insta-story that she had no appetite to eat because the supermodel was seated opposite her.
She then shared a picture with Hadid, with the caption: “Hi @laraalanaa! Mommy with Bella!”
Of course, fans were envious of her post and noted how lucky she was.
Hadid, on the other hand appeared to be overwhelmed by all the love shown by Malaysians.
In a recent Instagram post, she wrote: “Truly overwhelmed with the love from Kuala Lumpur today. I’m so grateful for all of you here who support me. I feel so lucky to meet every one of your beautiful faces, from the very bottom of my heart!”
And during her incredibly short stay, Hadid took the opportunity to go sight-seeing and even posed for a few shots in front of the Sultan Abdul Samad Building, which she shared on her Instagram as well.
This morning, Hadid reportedly left to catch an early flight to Tokyo, Japan.
