In her acceptance speech, Hadid paid a brief tribute to late boxing legend Muhammad Ali who passed away on June 3 at the age of 74.
“I didn’t get to post anything yet so I just wanted to say Muhammad Ali has touched me so much in my life and I’m so grateful to have met him,” Hadid said.
“I just wanted to openly say rest in peace Muhammad. You’re the champ.”
The “Guys Choice Awards” were taped on June 4 at Sony Pictures Studios in Culver City, California
