Supermodel Bella Hadid joined a London protest against Donald Trump's controversial decision to recognise Jerusalem as the capital of Israel - for three minutes before being whisked away in her chauffeur-driven car.
The 21-year-old, who is of Palestinian descent, had been partying five minutes away on Oxford Street at an event staged by luxury watchmaker Tag Heuer.
As she was driven away at around 7.30pm today, Hadid's car got stuck behind the protesters who had gathered outside the US Embassy near to Hyde Park.
After videoing the demonstration on her phone, Hadid - still dressed in a glamorous red dress and white coat - got out and joined the march for a few minutes before jumping back into her car and driving off.
She appeared to be enjoying her brief stint as a protester and was pictured smiling and raising her fist into the air as she put her arm around a young fan.
The demonstrations are a part of a Day of Rage which has seen trouble flare around the world in the wake of President Trump's controversial move.

Protesters took to the streets in Jerusalem and thousands also marched in Turkey as well as in Afghanistan, Jordan, Pakistan, Somalia and Egypt.
Violent clashes saw two people shot dead by Isreali soldiers and hundreds injured in Jerusalem.
Protesters launched stones at Israeli troops, who responded with tear gas and rubber bullets while huge crowds rallied outside Jerusalem's Al Aqsa Mosque, a flashpoint site in the holy city.
The violence on the West Bank and Gaza has so far resulted in 767 injuries of which 61 were a result of live ammunition, 200 from rubber bullets, 479 from teargas and 27 other, the Red Crescent said.
On Friday evening the demonstrations had spread to Europe, with marches in Berlin, Athens and Brussels as well as London.

The religious and political dispute over Jerusalem forms the emotional core of the Israeli-Arab conflict. The ancient city is home to major Muslim, Jewish and Christian shrines and looms large in the competing national narratives of Israelis and Palestinians.
Trump's decision on Jerusalem is widely seen in the region as a blatant expression of pro-Israel bias, but it was unclear if protests and confrontations would maintain momentum after Friday. More extensive violence has erupted in the Palestinian areas in the past, including deadly bloodshed triggered by disputes over Jerusalem.
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas' Fatah movement and other groups had called for three 'days of rage' this week. However, Abbas remains an opponent of violence, saying it's counterproductive and that he might at some point order his security forces to contain protests.
Separately, Fatah's rival, the Gaza-based Islamic militant Hamas, called this week for a third uprising against Israel, but such appeals have fizzled as Palestinians become more disillusioned with their leaders.
