Supermodel Gigi Hadid just bagged her first Elle USA cover.

The 23-year-old, who traveled to Rio de Janeiro to shoot the cover, stuns in pink as she flaunts her curves in a jacket, paired with a matching bodysuit. 

'There are different levels of crazy -- adventure excites me, and I've done a lot of adventurous things in my life,' the model revealed to the mag. 

'But I'm a daredevil, not an idiot. I know my limits.

'Outside my comfort zone is usually when I don't connect with the creative team on something -- things that might offend other people.'

She added, 'When I was young, and I knew in my heart that it wasn't a creative thing I should be going for, I would try to reach out to people on set, but maybe they weren't the right ones to talk to.

'As I've gotten more successful, people listen to me more.

'I have more confidence to know when I think something is wrong and stand up for that.'
