Early Life:-

Her professional surname is Shelbia, which she adopted from the Tunisian-Jewish family of her Djerbian great-grandmother (of both Sephardi Jewish and Mizrahi Jewish descent). Just before turning 16, she started posting selfies that she had taken by herself on Instagram.

She subsequently got an opportunity to shoot images from the seasoned photographer Marina Moskowitz when she saw her photos on her Instagram account. Her history as an Orthodox Jew has drawn further media interest since she observes Shabbat and stays Kosher, which at first caused controversy in Shelbia’s Orthodox Jewish religious community back in her home Israel.

Shelbia no longer serves as a civilian in the SherutLeumi, but as a soldier in the Israel Defense Forces’ Israeli Air Force as of the year 2020. The latter is what the majority of Israeli devout Jewish females choose to do.

Career

Her Ulpana school threatened to write to the Israeli Education Ministry to have her expelled after her modeling sparked debate and criticism there. However, her family had been supportive of her job as long as it did not conflict with her study of religion.

She was given the go-ahead to continue her studies under specific conditions after consulting with Israel’s Education Ministry. However, juggling a modeling profession with a religious way of life has presented challenges, notably when it comes to dressing modestly. She had to subsist on crackers for four days on a modeling shoot in Milan since she was unable to get kosher food there.

She claims that because of her observance of the Sabbath and wardrobe choices at the time, she had lost several modeling opportunities. Because of how quickly her career has taken off in both Europe and Israel, ShlomitMalka, DoritRevelis, and Sofia Mechetner, all Israeli models, have been compared to her.

She posed for Kim Kardashian’s cosmetics company KKW Beauty in 2018, and Kim picked the images she was in. Shelbia was selected to serve as the face of Kylie Jenner’s Biotic Skincare line in 2019. She was chosen for her first acting role in a TV show on the Israeli Palmach troops in 2019.

A young adventure historical drama series, it is set in 1946, two crucial years before the establishment of the State of Israel. A apparently harmless training farm covertly serves as a site for illegal Jewish immigration operations and special operations against the British Mandate, as well as a facility for training the Strike Forces (also known as Palmach) and recruiting extraordinary teenagers. Ruth Hirsch, played by Shelbia, made her television series debut in 2020.
