While Periscoping with her fans last month, Gigi Hadid answered intimate questions from her passionate fans and revealed how she met her boyfriend Joe Jonas, an American musician/actor with a net worth of $25 million.

“We met at the Grammys when I was 13 years old,” she said of the middle Jonas brother. “And he asked me to a baseball game, and I said no.”

While it wasn’t a lack of interest that kept her from the Dodgers game date, Gigi was simply too nervous and possibly too young to say yes.

“I was so nervous; I literally didn’t even know what it meant to hang out with a boy,” she confessed. “And also, Grammys are on a Sunday, and I didn’t want to tell him that I had school the next day, so I was like, ‘No, maybe next time.’ ”

Not easily rejected, the then-19-year-old Jo-Bro was not ready to give up. “I didn’t have my phone with me, and I don’t think he did either because we were at the Grammys, and so he wrote his number on a piece of paper and gave it to my mom.”

In August, Gigi Hadid and boyfriend Joe Jonas were spotted keeping it casual while grabbing coffee and shopping in West Hollywood.

The 26-year-old singer-slash-actor Joe kept it cool in a dark denim jacket worn over a blue T-shirt and paired with black jeans and black leather shoes.

On the other hand, 20-year-old model Gigi looked chic and sexy as she flashed her midriff in a pearl gray Michael Kors tank top, which gave a peek at her bra.
