Entity shares five celebrity support systems, including Oprah Winfrey and Barbara Walters.

Lady Gaga and the Hadid sisters are showing fans that everyone needs a support system.

“Gaga has been a great kind of big sister to me,” Gigi said backstage at the 2016 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. “And has given me amazing advice, and I think she is such a beautiful person that is just set on spreading love everywhere she goes. I think that she is one of a kind. She is amazing.”

Lady Gaga reciprocates this love and even posted a picture of her and the Hadid sisters, who she refers to as her “angels.”

And for those of you who can’t get enough of this inspirational trio, here are five other relationships proving that behind every successful woman there is a mentor who has helped along the way.

1 Dolly Parton and Miley Cyrus

Dolly Parton, who Miley calls her “fairy god mother,” has been one of Miley’s loudest cheerleaders. It doesn’t matter if Miley is a judge on NBC’s “The Voice” or if she returns to her vivacious and unapologetic 2013 VMAs persona, Parton has her back.

“[Cyrus] is just trying to find her own place and wings and learn to fly,” Parton told People. “She’s a smart girl. She had to go to extremes to get her point across. I think she got the point across.”

It’s no surprise that these two super divas inspire each other. Demi looks up to J Lo and has previously dished about their close relationship.

“She’s a strong, beautiful woman – and when I say ‘beautiful’ I don’t just mean on the outside,” Lovato said. “She’s got an incredible heart. She’s really helped me. I look up to her a lot.”

3 Ina Garten and Taylor Swift

America’s sweetheart Taylor Swift has a mentor who is equally as sweet. Taylor refers to Ina Garten as her “hero” and gushes on TIME about how Garten’s “Barefoot Contessa” cookbooks are inspirational.

“As soon as I started watching Ina’s show, I realized why so many people adore her,” Swift wrote. “Her goal is to make things easier for us. Fans love her warmth and generosity. She shows us how to create memories that we’ll treasure for years to come.”

4 Barbara Walters and Oprah Winfrey

Barbara Walters and Oprah Winfrey are perhaps two of the biggest names on television. But Oprah’s massive success was largely inspired by Walters’ groundbreaking work in television. In fact, Oprah still owns Walters’ first book, “How to Talk with Practically Anybody About Practically Anything.”

“You’ve sat at the center of the world, doing what you do, and for so many years,” Oprah told Barbara in an interview. “I’ve said what a mentor you’ve been for me. Had there not been you, there never would have been me.”

5 Nora Ephron and Lena Dunham

Writer and producer Lena Dunham had the good fortune of meeting her lifelong inspiration, Nora Ephron, before the journalist passed away in 2012.

“I devoured her prose, her other film offerings and became a fangirl right along with my mother, aunt, grandmother and every other intelligent woman in the tristate area,” Dunham wrote in her tribute to Ephron’s life. “Which is why it was so momentous when, in March of 2011, I received a short, perfect e-mail from Ephron, saying she had seen and enjoyed my film and would like to take me to lunch.”

After meeting, the two became close friends and enjoyed each other’s company, stories and advice. “Her advice was unparalleled,” Dunham said.
