Savage comments are piling up as Texans roast reality star Yolanda Hadid for her recent tour of her cowboy-inspired home in Fort Worth.
The former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast member, 60, showed off her rustic home last week in a video tour through Architectural Digest (AD).
The clip starts with the former model coming to the door dressed in chaps, her blonde hair in Willie Nelson braids and a cowboy hat.Â
Lone Star State natives slammed her get-up as a costume.Â
‘The very definition of all hat, no cattle,’ commented Instagram user @mulloyo.Â
Yolanda Hadid showed off her luxurious Texas ranch in a video for Architectural DigestÂ
Another user added, ‘She had to wear chaps for this? Rich people cosplaying is getting really old.’
One of Hadid’s model daughters, Bella Hadid, has also become a fixture in Cowtown, as Fort Worth is known, in recent months.
Both women seem to have adopted the western life style as the men they are dating introduced them to cowboy culture.Â
‘That trip was really my first introduction to Texas,’ Hadid told AD of an early date her fiancé, Joseph Jingoli, took her on years ago.
‘We went straight to Fort Worth, where there was a huge horse show with hundreds and hundreds of real, authentic cowboys. It was like being dropped right into a Western movie.’
Hadid’s ‘tornado room’ is stocked with glass jars that would kill or injure you during a stormÂ
Yolanda Hadid has showed off her stunning Texas ranch – which comes complete with a honey bar because her fiancé, Joseph Jingoli, doesn’t drink alcohol
It contained tall, wooden ceilings and giant glass windows that overlooked a nearby river, as well as a ‘cozy’ fireplace and massive shelves built into the walls
‘Unless you’ve got livestock, it’s just fashion,’ user @dodds.dodds remarked.Â
‘I’m dying as a real Texan. Why is she wearing pristine chaps for this,’ added @victoria_elizabethnb.
The mansion is complete a Pilates studio, a mudroom room, and a honey bar since her fiancé doesn’t drink alcohol.
‘My partner, Joey, is 39 years sober,’ Hadid explains.Â
‘First I wanted to do a tequila bar, but that wouldn’t be appropriate in our home, so instead, I did a honey bar. I like to collect different honeys from wherever we travel.’Â
In perhaps the most ridiculous moment in the video, the Dutch celebrity known for her many conquests of wealthy and famous men, Hadid takes cameras into her ‘tornado room,’ which is stocked with glass food jars.Â
‘This is my little slice of heaven,’ Yolanda dished. ‘I designed this half-moon fireplace because I wanted to sit around here and just look at the view. The view in the summer is amazing
Next, Yolanda showed off the home’s gorgeous patio, which contained outdoor seating and a large fire pit – and boasted stunning views of a river below
‘I didn’t know that when you move to Texas, you have to have a tornado room,’ the model-turned-TV personality wrongly stated (Texans don’t have tornado rooms.)
‘I’ve never been in a tornado, so come inside. So this pantry, this is made from cinder blocks, so this is also a storm room.’
A cringe-worthy moment as all Texans know the safest room in your house during a storm is an interior room WITHOUT windows, as the glass would almost certainly kill or injure you.Â
‘Tornado room? I’m a native Texan and I’ve never lived or seen a house here with a tornado room.’Â
‘Not the tornado room stacked with glass jars,’ exclaimed @linzilous.Â
‘Tell me it’s satire,’ piled on @markobon.Â
It also comes complete with an enormous walk-in pantry, a Pilates studio (seen), and a cowboy room
In one corner, sat Yolanda and Joey’s honey bar, where they store various honeys they’ve collected from all across the globe – as well as some they made at their farm in Pennsylvania
Yolanda transformed the mud room into a haven for ‘cowboys,’ filled with hats, boots, and ‘gear’ needed to ride horsesÂ
‘Tornado room? You mean the bathroom in the bathtub with a mattress,’ added @alexannagram.’Â
Despite her many bless-your-heart-evoking moments, at least Hadid does actually know how to ride a horse.Â
In her time on RHOBH, she talked about her childhood in the The Netherlands where she became an equestrian, although her experience with the animals has been more in the English style.
Hadid is hardly the first outsider to set up a home in Texas, and in an attempt to fit it, reduce the state’s storied and proud way of life into comical and slightly offense stereotypes.Â
‘That is one fancy Longhorn Steakhouse,’ @lorddevin chimed in.Â
‘This is exactly what I would expect a rich Dutch woman’s mansion in Texas to be like,’ added @daniellevieck. Â
The master bedroom is certainly fit for a king or queen
She then showcased a few of the bedrooms in the single-floor home – including the master suite and the ‘grandkids room’ (seen)Â
As for the primary bathroom, that was just as luxurious; it boasted ‘his and her’ sinks, a double shower, and a custom built stone bathtub
A second bathroom, which she called the ‘powder room,’ has a wall covered in framed magazine covers that her kids have appeared on
‘Stop moving to Texas, we don’t want yall,’ @sophieb_rose said.Â
New residents have been flooding into the state, with more than 9 million newcomers between 2000 and 2002 alone, and another 400,000 additional people every year after that, according to Forbes.
Among the other best known new residents, rapper Drake who bought a $15 million ranch in Washington County, about half-way between Austin and Houston.
His massive 313-acre estate includes horses, a 14,300 square foot main house, several pools, three stocked ponds and an organic farm.
The Canadian celebrity even shared his driver’s license picture recently.Â
However, this is a reminder that no matter how rich or famous you are, no one can claim to be a Texan right away.Â
While state officials require a person to live in Texas for 12 months before you can get a driver’s license or claim official benefits, native Texans won’t consider outsiders a Texan for a very, very long time.
As John Steinbeck famously wrote, ‘Texas is a state of mind. Texas is an obsession. Above all, Texas is a nation in every sense of the word…A Texan outside of Texas is a foreigner.’
