It was written by Måneskin members Damiano David, Victoria De Angelis, Thomas Raggi and Ethan Torchio, alongside Justin Tranter and the song's producers Max Martin, Rami Yacoub and Sylvester Sivertsen.

Inspired by the group's stay in Los Angeles, they created a fictional character named "Supermodel", and the song talks about her life–what she does for a living, how she spends her life and that she would not love anyone back.

Directed by Bedroom Projects and Ben Chappel, the video pays homage to 1990s cinema, while its plotline involves the titular "Supermodel", portrayed by Nina Marker, who stole De Angelis' purse.

[4] According to the group's frontman, Damiano David, the band members were thinking that this obsession with status and appearance must be an exaggeration made by TV and movies, but it turned out to be real.

[7] "Supermodel" was written by the members of Måneskin, Justin Tranter, and the song's producers Max Martin, Rami Yacoub, and Sly.

[10] The band's frontman admitted in an interview with BBC, that "Supermodel" is not one of their "deepest" songs, but it is a "good fun";[10] while the group's guitarist, Thomas Raggi, said that he took inspiration from "California vibe" for Variety.

[16] Following the intro, Damiano starts singing with "sultry" vocals,[7] backed-up by fast-paced rhythm, and Victoria De Angelis' "three-dimentional" bass, whilst the chorus has been described as "adrenaline-pumping" by Panorama's Gabriele Antonucci.

[17] Writing for Rockol, Claudio Cabona opined that "Supermodel" is a "mix between Ed Sheeran flow and Red Hot Chili Peppers guitar style".

[22] Jenesaispop posted an ambivalent review of "Supermodel", with Bacon praising its "straight-to-the-point lyrics" and David's charisma, and how his "suggestive cadence blends with the always effective Max Martin", while Jordi Bardají criticized the lyrics, which he deemed as "clichéd" and outdated, opining that Max Martin's production dilutes the band's personality, adding that "'Supermodel' is far from being the song that the public wants from Måneskin.

[24] The band continued teasing the single in the following days with various pictures and videos on Instagram, one clip featuring the song's first verse with footage of David eating fruits and drinking champagne in a bathtub.

[26] Commercially, "Supermodel" landed at number 11 in Italy and was certified platinum by Federazione Industria Musicale Italiana for selling over 100 thousand copies.

[39] Directed by Bedroom and Ben Chappell, the video features the titular character of "Supermodel" played by Danish fashion model Nina Marker.

They also said that they "worked closely with the directors and Ben [Chappell] to recreate frame shots and sequences from our favourite '90s films", admitting that they had fun during the shooting and "playing funny scenes that reminded us of a detective B-movie".

Chappell commented that the idea for the clip came from a "week of sitting around the pool in LA with the band thumbing through '90s Vogue magazines and talking about our favourite '90s movies", adding that they tried to "sneak in as many small references as we could throughout the video."

[40] Will Lavin of NME commented that the visual is "cinematic", adding that "it captures the song's fierce mood and playful lyrics as a series of catastrophic events unfold".
