Heidi Klum Could Not Resist the Catwalk
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Shows, Models, News, Rumors
Despite having given birth to her fourth child last month and claiming she was merely going to host the Victoria’s Secret fashion show, Heidi Klum could not resist the allure of the catwalk.
While she swapped the usual, revealing lingerie for a full bodice, it’s clear that whatever training or dieting the supermodel did worked wonders in returning her to the runway!
Can you even spot the supposed “extra” twenty pounds she claims to still have?

Gisele Bundchen Tops Valuable Model List
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Models, News
Move over, Heidi Klum—Gisele Bundchen has been named the world’s most valuable model.
The Brazilian beauty, who is currently expecting her first child with husband Tom Brady, topped The Daily Beast’s annual list, which took into account multi-year contracts, advertising campaigns, runway appearances and magazine covers.
Gisele beat Kate Moss into second place, while others in the top 10 included new mother Adriana Lima, Christy Turlington and Miranda Kerr.
The website said of the list, “We considered four tenets to illustrate a model’s visibility and success - multi-year contracts, advertising campaigns, runway appearances, and magazine covers. Those with retail licensing deals, including Kate Moss and Gisele Bundchen, got credit for those estimated annual earnings, as well. Annual income from contracts, primarily negotiated by large cosmetic companies and Victoria’s Secret, were weighted 40 per cent because they are the most difficult to get, bear the largest salaries, and indicate a very high level of success.”
Check out the complete list after the jump.

Heidi Klum Moves in Trainer to Shed Baby Weight
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Shows, Health & Beauty, Models, News, Rumors
Supermodel Heidi Klum‘s personal trainer has moved in with her to help get her into shape.
The German supermodel is desperate to shed the weight she gained while pregnant with daughter Lou - her fourth child who was born last month - before a Victoria’s Secret catwalk show next week and has embarked on a grueling diet and exercise regime under the guidance of expert David Kirsch.
A source said, “Heidi’s swapped processed carbs, sugar, dairy and fruit for egg-white omelettes, spinach salads and grilled tuna with quinoa. She’s determined to wow everyone when she walks. She’s pushing herself through gruelling twice-daily workouts.”
Heidi has previously admitted she is struggling to lose her baby weight and finds it much tougher than she did after having her other children, Leni, five, Henri, four, and Johan, three: “I wouldn’t say I’m back in shape yet. Everything changes when you get older. It was different when I was 31 with the first one and now being 36 with the fourth one.”
She is now hitting the treadmill and eating sensibly in a bid to get back in shape as she fears she will remain bigger forever if she doesn’t act now: “I think that if you wait too long and it sticks there it stays that way forever. I have to be motivated.”
Rankin Hits Back at Lagerfeld
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, Models, Rumors
Rankin thinks Karl Lagerfeld must have been drunk when he slated Heidi Klum.
Chanel designer Lagerfeld has been engaged in a war of words with the German model ever since he called her “too fat to model” and criticized her husband Seal’s appearance earlier this year, but fashion photographer Rankin has hit out at the designer, saying Heidi is on a par with Kate Moss and Claudia Schiffer.
“I don’t think he knows what he’s talking about. He’s a funny one, Karl Lagerfeld, he doesn’t say anything for years and then when he does it’s so off the mark. Maybe he’d had a couple of drinks.”
Rankin, who has photographed most of the world’s top models during his career, praised the model’s worth ethic and versatility: “Kate and Heidi never turn up late - maybe half an hour late - they’re never difficult, never unmanageable.
“Heidi has an amazing ability to be able to step between high fashion, high street fashion, catalogue and mainstream TV and it’s very unusual. I don’t think there’s anyone else in the world - Claudia Schiffer maybe - who can do the same.”
Heidi Klum to Host, Not Walk
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Shows, Models, News
Supermodel Heidi Klum will host this year’s Victoria’s Secret fashion show.
The model mum, who gave birth to fourth child Lou Sulola Samuel three weeks ago, has always modeled at the annual show, but decided that her body isn’t ready to hit the catwalk.
Organizers were so keen to keep the German beauty—who famously once wore a million-dollar bra at the show—involved she will now be hosting instead, with the Black Eyed Peas lined up to play a set. The show returns to New York for the first time since 2005 and will be filmed this month before airing on CBS in December.
Heidi had previously said she was worried she might not get back into shape fast enough and would be devastated if she couldn’t take part in the show. In August, she said, “The last time I gave birth, I had two months, and I don’t know if I have that much time this time. It was pushing it the last time. But if I don’t make it, I’m sure I’ll be very sad.”
The 36-year-old model already has sons Henry, four, and two-year-old Johan with husband Seal, and five-year-old daughter Leni from a previous relationship.

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Health & Beauty, News, Sales
Continuing on with their entrepreneurial empire, the Kardashian sisters are launching a skincare line.
As well as signing a five-year contract to design clothing for fashion retailer Bebe, the reality family are moving into beauty.
Mum Kris Jenner revealed, “Me and my girls are working on our on skin care line that should be out in the spring.”
Her daughter Kim, 29 - who shot to fame with the family on the show Keeping Up With The Kardashians - will also launch a perfume for beauty store Sephora in February: “I am so excited about my fragrance. The scent took me a long time to perfect and it’s finally here.”
The Kardashian family are not the first celebrities to create their own skin care range. Last year, Heidi Klum launched her line In An Instant, while model Miranda Kerr releases her organic skin care range, Kora, in Australia this week.
Heidi Klum and Her Bump Dilemma
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, Health & Beauty, Models, News, Women, Dresses
Heidi Klum struggled to fit her baby bump in a gown for yesterday’s Emmy Awards.
The pregnant supermodel, whose raises three children with husband Seal, and is expecting a daughter in October, decided to wear a clingy black floor-length dress to show off to embrace her expanding figure because her stomach is too big to hide. Even though she had several fittings, the 36-year-old beauty said designer Georgina Chapman struggled to get the bespoke Marchesa gown to fit perfectly because her tummy was constantly growing.
“It wasn’t really hard for me, but it was hard for the woman that designed a dress for me. She started about two or three months ago and that’s kind of difficult… it’s black because I figure, at eight-and-a-half months, black is better! I think it’s elegant and slimming.”
The blonde beauty also revealed she will be in no hurry to lose her post-baby weight to return to lingerie modeling: “I was asked by Victoria’s Secret if it is possible, if I’m going to make it to their show. You never know how you are afterwards, so you kind of have to play it by ear and see what happens. So far—knock on wood—everything was always great. I felt great afterwards and I loved every minute of it, even the sleepless nights of getting up every two hours. But let’s see what happens. You can’t put all that pressure on yourself.”
Quote of the Day: Heidi Klum on Karl Lagerfeld Comments
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, Models
“I don’t know why [Karl] said that. Maybe he wanted to be in the paper? Maybe he doesn’t understand what I do? It’s bizarre to me that he says he doesn’t know who I am because he’s dressed me in the past. I’ve worn Karl Lagerfeld. Not even Chanel—his line. Lagerfeld doesn’t just send random things everywhere, so it was a big thing for me [to wear his label] to the CFDA Awards a few years ago. I don’t know how he missed that, when he dressed me that time. But you know, it’s cool. People can say whatever they want to say. You can’t please everybody, and you can’t live your life wanting to please everybody either.”
-Heidi Klum talking to Page Six magazine about Karl Lagerfeld’s strange comments about her. (The designer previously said, “I don’t know her. Claudia Schiffer doesn’t know her.”)

Struggling Model Heidi Klum
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Shows, Health & Beauty, Models
Despite her entrepreneurial and worldwide fame, Heidi Klum “couldn’t book a job” when she started modeling.
The 36-year-old star expected it to be easy to launch her career after winning a $300,000 modeling contract on the 1992 television show Model 92, but initially found it hard to find work.
“After winning I thought, ‘This is my ticket. Things will happen.’ But they didn’t—I could never book a job. I was walking around New York for three or four years,” she explained.
Heidi, who raises three children with husband Seal and is currently pregnant with her fourth, says everything changed for her when she was spotted at a Victoria’s Secret show.
She now regularly makes it onto the Forbes list of highest earning models, raking in $16 million to take the second place in the latest edition.

Tim Gunn Loves Lindsay Lohan
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, Fashion Shows, Rumors
Despite the fact that Rachel Zoe has her hands picking out the clothes that brandish her wardrobe, Linsday Lohan has been called “extremely knowledgeable” about fashion.
The 23-year-old actress starred as a guest judge on the sixth season of Project Runway and has been lauded by the show’s consultant Tim Gunn:
“I was surprised and pleased by how extremely knowledgeable about fashion and articulate Lindsay Lohan was. She’s very young and can be portrayed in ways that aren’t all together flattering, and she was a true states person and really weighed in on the designers and what they were doing exceptionally well. And it was really a thrill to have her.”
Tim has also praised show host Heidi Klum—who is currently expecting a daughter with husband Seal, with whom she already raises three children—for her sense of style. He told People, “Heidi has incredible style no matter what condition she’s in, and she looks fabulous in everything. She just always knows what she looks best in and she’s remarkable. I marvel at her all the time.”
Despite being a successful model, the most important thing in Heidi’s life is her family. Tim revealed, “Seal and her kids always come first, and frankly we schedule things around that. I have the greatest respect for her. She’s very, very grounded.”
