American model Bella Hadid has spoken out for the first time after she starred in a controversial Adidas campaign earlier this month that was criticized by Israel, saying she “would never have participated” had she done more research into it. Hadid had appeared in ads for the rerelease of the brand’s classic SL 72 sneaker, which debuted with the 1972 Munich Olympics, where the Palestinian militant group Black September killed 11 Israeli athletes and a German police officer. [time-brightcove not-tgx=”true”] The SL72 campaign was promoted widely, and even appeared on a billboard in New York City’s Times Square. In a statement posted to an Instagram story on Monday, Hadid, whose father is Palestinian, said she would “never knowingly engage with any art or work that is linked to a horrific tragedy of any kind.” Hadid said she was unaware of the association until after the campaign was live. “I am shocked, I am upset, and I am disappointed in the lack of sensitivity that went into this campaign.
