AceShowbiz - Gigi Hadid will be turning 20 years old on Thursday, April 23, and she has had in mind how to mark the day, planning to feed the homeless. The model took to Twitter over the weekend and shared a snap of the early birthday gift her singer boyfriend Cody Simpson presented her.

It turned out he gave her McDonald's gift cards. "For my bday I asked for @McDonalds (or other food) gift cards to keep in wallet to give to those I pass on the streets of NYC...& elsewhere that are in need of a meal. I don't always carry cash & it's nice to know it'll be put to good use," so read her tweets. "Thanks @CodySimpson for the first batch!!!!" she added.
