Gigi Hadid Reveals She Auditioned to Be Disney Princess in Live-Action Movie

The supermodel explained that she also took singing lessons to prepare for the role.

Supermodel Gigi Hadid revealed that she once auditioned for the role of Disney’s live-action Tangled, before the project was put on indefinite hold after the flop of Disney’s 2025 live-action Snow White. “I was really proud of my scene,” she said. The 30-year-old model spoke of the experience in Vogue’s cover story published Monday alongside fellow supermodel Kendall Jenner. Hadid also revealed that she took singing lessons during fashion month to prepare for the role. “The singing…I knew they were going to go with a real singer, but I’ll show you my audition scene later,“ Hadid teased. While the supermodel did not land the role, she expressed wanting to pivot her runway career to one on the big screen, an ambition that was largely fueled by her relationship with actor Bradley Cooper. While she has yet to land her first major role, Hadid has previously made cameos in films such as the 2018 comedy action hit Ocean’s 8, along with voice acting in season two of Netflix’s series Never Have I Ever. She also acted in a 2015 short film called Those Wrecked By Success. It remains unclear who will play Rapunzel or when Disney will release the live-action rendition.
