In the statement to The Hollywood Reporter, Sediuk said he considers Hadid and Kendall Jenner “beautiful” but that they “have nothing to do with high fashion”.

Gigi Hadid is now in Italy slaying the runways at tons of fabulous shows for Milan Fashion Week, but the supermodel had a super scary encounter when she was walking to her auto with her sister Bella.
Raw: Livid Supermodel Gigi Hadid elbows attacker in the head after she’s grabbed exiting Italian Fashion Week.
However, throughout the short trip to the vehicle, a man in sunglasses – according to MailOnline, he’s believed to have later been identified as “prankster” Vitalii Sediuk – followed closely behind Gigi.
In an extended cut of the video, we saw her stop to take photos with fans no less than four times. “I’m a HUMAN BEING”, Gigi tweeted in response to a Huffington Post writer who defended her online.
“How dare that idiot thinks he has the right to man-handle a complete stranger”, she continued. Her sister Bella was also filmed trying to free Hadid from his grasp until he let go and ran away.
The icky sitch happened while Gigi and sister, Bella Hadid, were leaving the Max Mara show earlier today shortly after walking the runway. Hadid responded by elbowing him in the face in the interest of her personal safety, which apparently was not very ladylike of her.
After the man set her down, he ran off as the model yelled to him, “Who the f*** are you, you piece of s***?”
However, when Gigi was made aware of the story angle, she disputed it and insisted she was just defending herself from a stranger, not a fan.
The fuckhead puts her down, and immediately starts to walk away. Sediuk’s since taken to Instagram to declare his recent attack as “a manifest or protest”.
Sediuk has previously assaulted Brad Pitt, who is now embroiled in a messy divorce from Angelina Jolie, Leonardo DiCaprio, Miranda Kerr and Kim Kardashian.
