Bella Hadid plays up her femme fatale appeal as a gogo dancer in boyfriend The Weeknd's gritty music video In The Night
Bella Hadid finds herself in compromising situation in The Weeknd's new music video In The Night with one way out.
The brunette beauty, 19, is cast as a gogo dancer in the highly stylized visual that features plenty of artsy club scenes before things get really hectic, violent and gory.
Bella finds herself in the grips of a gangster who asks, 'Are you afraid? I asked if you're afraid. Let's dance tonight.'

A man is seen with a plastic bag over his head and made to suffocate while a second individual is shown plunging a knife down hard into the chest of another whose white shirt turns red with blood.
A bouquet of red roses flash by, perhaps an indication of The Weeknd's love for his seemingly imprisoned lady.
'Dollar bills and tears keep falling down her face/ She'll never walk away (I don't think you understand),' The Weeknd croons.

Escape: Bella hops on the back of The Weeknd's motorcycle and they ride away together
Bella is seen sauntering off a cargo ship in her red bodysuit, a plastic red jacket and black thigh-high boots.
She hops onto the back of The Weeknd's motorcycle and they zoom off through a tunnel.
What's real and what isn't comes into play as the final image in the video shows that not all the beautiful dancers got off unscathed in the revolt - as one is seen floating in a deep sea among debris.
The Weeknd - whose real name is Abel Tesfaye - is tends to rely on the seedy underworld as a video selling point and he doesn't disappoint here.
