Bella Hadid’s NFT collection joins metaverse

With the debut of CY-B3LLA, American supermodel Bella Hadid has moved from the catwalk into the metaverse. This collection of Non-Fungible Tokens features artwork that is based on 3D scans of her face and body.

After becoming obsessed with video games during the COVID-19 lockdown, Hadid, who is 25 years old, told Reuters in an interview that she gave from New York that she was intrigued by shared virtual world environments and that she wanted to make “cool versions” of herself. Reuters conducted the interview.

NFTs allow for the purchase and sale of any and all types of digital assets, including still photographs, moving images, music, and text.

Hadid stated that the procedure was “very enjoyable,” and that the final outputs actually do contain her “precise facial expressions.” Hadid mentioned this about the process.

Her collection comprises 11,111 NFTs, all of which were produced through a joint effort with the NFT minting platform known as reBASE.

The CY-B3LLA NFTs drew creative influence from 10 different countries, with contributions from artists living in those countries.
