Bella Hadid dreams of being an Olympian


You may know Bella Hadid for her modeling career and fellow supermodel sis, Gigi Hadid.

What you probably didn't know about her: she wants to compete in the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, and she's got a pretty good shot.

As her website confirms, Hadid is a nationally ranked equestrian with Olympic aspirations. Her home page advertises her hopes pretty prominently:

Hadid posted a photo of herself riding to her Instagram but only recently revealed her Olympic plans in an interview with PORTER Magazine.

In the interview Hadid quipped, "You know how every model is like, 'I do yoga.' Well, I find horses have the same effect." The interview was accompanied by, what else, an equestrian-themed photoshoot.
