Many celebrity relationships are so fleeting that few remember them, as is the case of Joe Jonas with Gigi Hadid. Before making public their courtship, the singer had been interested in the model since seven years ago… when she was only 13 and he was 19.
The day Joe Jonas met Gigi, he was amazed by her beauty, so regardless of her mother’s presence (and that she was only a child!), he asked her out.
The Time Gigi Hadid Turned Joe Jonas Down
To Joe’s surprise, who along with his brothers was the crush of many people, the little girl rejected him. Gigi’s response was ignored by the singer, so he wrote his phone number on a piece of paper and gave it to the young girl’s mother.
At the time, the model was very young, so much so that she was even embarrassed to comment to her that her refusal was because the next day she had class. “He invited me to go to a baseball game, I said no (…) I was so nervous and excited that I didn’t even know what it meant to go out with a guy,” the celebrity told in an interview.
Little by little, they got to know each other and went their separate ways, until after several years, when she was 20 and he was 26, they started something more formal (2015). Their love affair lasted only a couple of months, and soon, the headlines in the entertainment media only talked about their breakup.
Joe Criticized for Asking Gigi Out When She Was Underage
Although for them it was a beautiful love story, social networks criticized the fact that Joe Jonas dared to want to date a girl when he was already of age. Some pointed out that the singer already “knew his intentions,” as there are times when age should be considered, not to mention that in several countries it is a crime to date a minor.
Some of the comments included: “Craddle-robber”, “Sick, she was a child,” “Good she turned him down,” and “That Joe is wrong, it is obvious he already knew what he wanted from her.”
