The 21st guest of the series ‘Nayda F’Hollywood’ was the famous Moroccan model Jaad Belgaid in the United States, who spoke to Simo Benbachir about his beginnings and his rapid progress in the field of fashion.
Belgaid said that the first offer he received was through an agent who had seen his photos on Facebook and, impressed by his look, he contacted him to ask him to work for an agency. This is how he fortuitously entered the world of modeling. Jaad has become the most famous Arab model in the United States, after signing contracts with several agencies and doing many shows.
Jaad Belgaid’s career kicked off with the show of the Givenchy brand, after having successfully completed a casting at Champs-Elysées, having been appreciated by Ricardo, the brand’s artistic director who had already traveled to Morocco and was impressed by its nature and people.
Later, Belgaid’s fashion shows with famous brands such as Philipp Plein, Dolce & Gabbana followed one another and the he participated in Fashion week, in different locations; like Milan.
It is worth mentioning that Jaad is also a judo champion. He plans to represent Morocco after playing for France. He told Simo: “At first I loved football. But I was turbulent and unruly. At my father’s request, I turned away from football and started to do judo. I learned to take care of myself, eat healthy and be disciplined. Thus, my behavior has improved a lot thanks to the rules of judo that we must respect. Thus, I became honest and rigorous.
Jaad is preparing to launch into fast and healthy catering for athletes in Casablanca, as well as the implementation of a charity project in the form of a parade whose proceeds will go to associations caring for orphans.
