Things escalated quickly.

The model is well used to her heightened security.

Bella Hadid was unsurprisingly surrounded by paparazzi during New York Fashion Week.

Yes, the model was swarmed by photographers everywhere she went, but things got a little out of hand on Wednesday as she left the Michael Kors show.

Thank you @michaelkors ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

However, this isn’t your standard story of a paparazzi getting too close and the celebrity pushing back.

Bella stepped in to defend a female photographer when one of her security guards became too forceful.

Video footage captured and shared by TMZ shows the 20-year-old pulling her security detail off of the woman before checking if she was OK.


The Hadid sisters are no strangers to these types of incidents, especially at major events.

Last year, Gigi was grabbed by a man at Milan Fashion Week and then had to elbow him in the face to get away.
