Despite being accompanied by security guards, the man somehow managed to sneak through and grab her around the waist. Photos show him lifting her up and groping her from behind.

Hadid, 21, is visibly shocked, but right after she realized what was happening she kicked her attacker, also knocking his head with her elbow.

Hadid is heard yelling, “Let go of me… who the f**k are you?” before the man made a run for it.

“You piece of s**t,” she added before jumping into a waiting car.

She later felt the need to defend her actions on Twitter, even calling out an article writer who called the attacker a “fan” (the author later changed her headline, for which Hadid was grateful).

Sediuk has gained notoriety for accosting a number of Hollywood elites including Will Smith and Leonardo DiCaprio. Whoever the attacker was, he was not apprehended or charged in the incident.
