Gigi Hadid, the 20-year-old daughter of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Yolanda Foster, has booked her dream job.

Hadid has been cast in this year's Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, a gig she's aspired to achieve since beginning her modeling career.
Victoria's Secret made the announcement by posting a part of her audition on its Twitter account.
"We [heart] surprises so here's a BIG one for @GiGiHadid at the #VSFashionShow castings! See you on the runway, Gigi," the lingerie company wrote Thursday night.
In the video clip, Hadid struts her stuff down a runway while wearing a black bra and matching underwear for the show's executive producers Ed Razek and Monica Mitro. At the end of her walk, the guys revealed she's been hired, which is an incredible feat for a model considering there aren't many VS Angels.

"Couldn't keep back my tears!!!! Anyone that grew up with me knows that getting this show has been a dream of mine forever! THANK YOU @victoriassecret & @ed_razek! One of the happiest moments of my life. #vsfashionshow2015," Hadid captioned a photo of herself learning the great news on Instagram last night.
Hadid failed to make the cut for the annual VS show in 2014 because she was "just too shy," but after gaining more experience, she accomplished her goal. Hadid told Style.com she "trained every day and worked so, so hard" for this.
Selena Gomez, Rihanna and The Weeknd will be performing at the upcoming Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, which will film next month and air December 8 on CBS.
Joe Jonas, Hadid's boyfriend, congratulated her on Twitter by writing, "@GiGiHadid so happy for you."
