Meanwhile, Gigi recently appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, where she professed her love of a good burger.

The runway star joked that she lives by the motto: ‘Eat clean to stay fit, eat a burger to stay sane’. 

‘I live by that religiously in my life,’ she laughed on the talk show.

Hadid, the daughter of Real Housewife Yolanda Hadid, claims she ate a different burger every week for a year, when she first moved to New York City.

‘The best is JG Melon’s, Uptown,’ alleged the lithe 21-year-old, who was wearing a monochrome corset and skintight suit trousers.

‘It’s so simple, they don’t try too hard… I had it for dinner last night,’ she recalled, as Fallon, 41, brought out two beef patties for them to devour on the stage. 

‘I don’t do tomatoes,’ she announced, checking inside the bun before taking a generous bite.

Hadid has just celebrated her birthday, ‘at the beach’ with her family.

‘So I didn’t actually drink on my 21st birthday,’ she said, while noting that she went to Las Vegas a week afterwards, to indulge with her beau Zayn.

‘My boyfriend taught me how to play poker the night before we went to Vegas so I won $400… on a $15 poker table, I thought that was pretty good,’ she beamed.
