The Hadids are taking over the modeling industry! Anwar Hadid, who is Gigi and Bella's 16-year-old brother, has officially signed a modeling contract.
Anwar has signed with IMG Models, which is the same agency that represents his successful and gorgeous older sisters. IMG Vice President David Cunningham announced the exiting news on Instagram on Friday.
"Anwar. Get ready. @anwardhadid @imgmodels #IMGstars," he captioned a photo of the handsome teen.
Their mother, former "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star Yolanda Foster, then reposted the photo writing, "It's official....Signed. @imgmodels + @anwardhadid #SummerJobsComingUp #NYC."
Anwar has yet to make his runway debut, but he already has a pretty impressive portfolio. He has appeared in magazines like Nylon and L'Umono Vogue and has even fronted a Rockstar Denim campaign, according to In Style. His Instagram is also proof that he's more than ready to take over the modeling world, just like his sisters, who have been quite the role models for him.
"My family is my foundation," he told Nylon in September. "My sisters are awesome; they probably taught me everything I ever need to know about girls. My mom is very liberal, but also old-fashioned when it comes to manners. She taught me to always be kind and treat others with respect."
Last October, Foster, who has been publicly battling Lyme disease for almost two years now, also revealed that Bella and Anwar have been quietly battling the chronic disease, as HNGN previously reported. While accepting the "Power of One" Award at the Global Lyme Alliance inaugural gala, she explained that she could not be more proud of her children's accomplishments.
"I don't deserve this award. This award is for Anwar and Bella," she told the crowd. "This is my token and my promise to you that I will not allow you to live a life of pain and suffering. I will walk to the end of the earth to find a cure so that you can live a healthy life that you deserve. No child should suffer in the way that you do."
