After hosting the Daily Front Row's Fashion LA Awards last month, Hadid apparently did the job with such Crystallian competence (the show was not taped, so we really have no way of knowing) that she's now been tapped to host iHeartRadio's Much Music Video Awards.
Despite their seemingly dissimilar backgrounds, Crystal and Hadid actually have a lot in common. For instance, Gigi lives in New York, where Billy Crystal is originally from. See?!

Gigi Hadid: definitely the new Billy Crystal.
