  • Ashley Graham Wants to Be Like Heidi Klum and Other Supermodels, But Curvier

    Ashley Graham is a super successful plus-size model, whose goal is to become a supermodel like Heidi Klum. She realizes there will be one big difference between her and the America’s Got Talent judge. She will be curvier. But that doesn’t stop Ashley Graham from working to achieve her goal.

    In addition to Heidi Klum, Graham also admires Kathy Ireland, Tyra Banks, and Cindy Crawford. She’d be happy achieving the success level of any of her four idols.

    “I definitely look up to Kathy Ireland, Heidi Klum, Tyra Banks and Cindy Crawford,” Ashley Graham said during a recent interview with The Coveteur. “I’ve watched their careers and they have just blossomed into extraordinary and amazing things. I can’t wait to be the curvier version of all of them.”

    Ashley Graham has not just modeled for plus-size retailer Lane Bryant–she has landed a bikini ad for Sports Illustrated, too.

    And even though she faced much scrutiny at the start of her career, she believes the industry is finally changing.

    “I’ve faced criticism my whole career,” she said. “It’s come from fans, it’s come from agents, and it’s come from other models. But I think that it’s all a matter of how you handle it and I turned it all into a positive thing. Now the industry has totally changed and it’s not as much about size anymore–everyone’s really jumped on the bandwagon of not letting size be the defining factor of determining what beauty truly is.”

    Ashley Graham has never felt the need to lose weight when she began her career.

    “I got told at the very beginning, when I was about 12 years old, ‘If you lost a ton of weight, you could be a major model’ and my mom just looked at the lady, started laughing and said ‘We won’t be doing that,’ ” she shared. “That gave me so much confidence because if my mom didn’t think I needed to lose weight, then obviously I didn’t need to.”

    Hopefully young prospective models will gain confidence when they read about stories like Ashley Graham’s. And hopefully Ashley Graham attains her goal of becoming as famous a model as Heidi Klum or her cohorts.

  • Heidi Klum Shows Incredible Makeup Transformation

    Heidi Klum has never been shy about sharing photos of herself on social media; from beach selfies to elaborate Halloween costumes, the supermodel and television host utilizes Instagram to connect to her fans pretty often. Recently, she took to the image sharing site to show off a before-and-after pic of her makeup and hair, which were done by Linda Hay and Brent Lawler, and the photos are spreading like wildfire across the web after fans got a glimpse at her barefaced beauty.

    Klum shared the pics earlier this week, with the “before” showing her with no makeup and a slicked-back ponytail. The “after” shows her photoshoot-ready, with smoky cat eyes, artfully teased hair, and perfect lighting.

    This year marks 23 years in the business for Klum, who says she doesn’t feel any different now than she did when she was younger.

    “I’m in my 40s, and when I look in the mirror, I feel that I’m in my 40’s. I don’t know if there’s a big difference between 30’s and 40’s. I feel super-energetic the same as when I was in my 30’s. 40’s are 40’s, 30’s are 30’s, and 20’s are 20’s. I’m happy in my skin,” she told Style.com.

    Klum shared another photo this week that has garnered some attention, as it shows her in Sia’s now-iconic platinum wig with the caption, “Can you guess for who I am shooting new music video?” It’s not clear what the project is, but we hope it involves Klum doing some interpretive dance.

  • Heidi Klum: Too Much Skin Banned Her from Airport

    Heidi Klum modeled recently for a series of photographs advertising for Sharper Image. Some of these photos were destined for McCarran International Airport in Las Vegas. When the company that manages the indoor advertising saw how little the America’s Got Talent judge and host of Project Runway was wearing, they banned the advertisement photos from appearing there.

    Fox News reports that the Las Vegas-based Alliance Airport Advertising determined the images were in violation of a Clark County code designed to protect families that pass through the airport.

    Airport spokeswoman Christine Crews confirmed that the initial set of black and white photos were banned. However she says a new set of photos, “amended” by Iconix Brand Group, which is Sharper Image’s ad firm, have been approved for use inside the airport. They will appear from January 3rd through January 9th–the same time frame during which the initial set of photos was scheduled to be on display.

    Iconix Brand Group said in a statement that it was shocked the initial ads featuring Heidi Klum were “banned in Las Vegas–of all places.” The company says even the initial photos were both “tasteful” and “beautiful.”

    It is kind of an oxymoron that in Las Vegas–where scantily clad women reign supreme–that photos of Heidi Klum were banned. Las Vegas has, in recent years, tried to cater to more of a family crowd. Perhaps Clark County created the code when families began taking their vacations in Las Vegas.

    How often do you suppose Heidi Klum has been told she is wearing too little clothing? It is far more likely that the former supermodel has been told numerous times throughout the years that she’s wearing way too much clothing instead.

  • Elle Macpherson Moves Underwear Line To US While Heidi Klum Takes Over Bendon

    Supermodels are battling in the lingerie market, with Australian model Elle Macpherson pitted against German-born Heidi Klum. MacPherson, 50, recently announced that she was ending her partnership of 25 years with Australian-based company Bendon, which produces her Elle Macpherson Intimates lines. Meanwhile, the company has signed on Klum, 41, to take over the brand with Heidi Klum Intimates.

    Macpherson will be moving her three lines, Elle Macpherson Intimates and its subsidiaries Macpherson Men and The Body, to the US. She will aims to start her own lines for active wear, swim wear there with the move.hough Machpherson has yet to announce with whom she’ll be partnering for the venture.

    “I am relocating to the US with my family and I’m excited about energizing the further growth of the brands in the US market. I am very proud of the Elle Macpherson Intimates, The Body and Macpherson Men brands which I created and nurtured for the past 25 years,” said Macpherson. The model, TV host and entrepreneur reportedly raked in $150 million for Bendon during her time with them, which helped Macpherson to build her personal worth of $60 million.

    Meanwhile, Bendon CEO Justin Davis-Rice said that Klum’s social media reach will double Bendon’s market share and reinvigorate the brand. Klum reportedly has 2.54 million followers and a global fan base that will help her promote her own Intimates brand when it launches in January.

    Klum has acknowledged that Macpherson built “quite an empire” and “quite an amazing business” with Bendon, and shared that she was excited to join the company. “I feel like with all the social media that I have, with the campaigns that we do, I hope that people will hear that I took over and I hope that they’re happy about it. It wasn’t me knocking at the door saying I want to take over. It was offered to me,” Klum said.

  • Elle Macpherson: Heidi Klum Opens Up About “Rivalry”

    Elle Macpherson is not only one of the most recognizable faces in the fashion industry, she’s also been a major player in the world of lingerie for 25 years now. But now that Elle Macpherson Intimates is severing ties with New Zealand-based apparel company Bendon, rumors of a rivalry between the supermodel and Heidi Klum, who will take over as creative director for the latter company.

    Klum recently addressed that rivalry, which allegedly sprouted because Klum referred to herself as “The Body” in an ad, a term Macpherson used for her collaboration with Bendon. But the Project Runway host says that she was approached for the job, not the other way around.

    “You know, 25 years, that’s quite an empire. That’s quite an amazing business that Elle has created with Bendon. I feel like with all the social media that I have, with the campaigns that we do, I hope that people will hear that I took over and I hope that they’re happy about it. It wasn’t me knocking at the door saying I want to take over. It was offered to me,” she said.

    Macpherson says that while her company may be parting ways with Bendon, that doesn’t mean she’ll stop doing what she loves. Elle Macpherson Intimates will make a move to the U.S. market and will expand to include swimwear and activewear in December of this year.

    “I am very proud of the ‘Elle Macpherson Intimates,’ ‘THE BODY’ and ‘Macpherson Men,’ brands which I created and nurtured for the past 25 years and thank the Bendon Group, who has been supportive to the success of my brands. I am relocating to the U.S. with my family and I’m excited about energizing the further growth of the brands in the U.S. market,” said Macpherson.

  • Heidi Klum Talks Kids In The Kitchen

    While some models focus on the things they don’t eat, Heidi Klum says that she loves food and loves cooking. In fact, she claims that when she cooks the whole family gets involved, including the kids.

    “[My kids] cook everything with me. They barbecue with me, they chop with me. The little one washes,” the “Project Runway” host told Us Weekly during an event Thursday for the charity organization God’s Love We Deliver. “Everyone has their part to do, because I think it’s important they see how food is made, how a dish is made. A lot of younger people nowadays don’t know how to cook. No one taught them. So I think it’s important to teach that to them.”

    Heidi has four children by her ex-husband Seal, and claims that each one of them is different and that she had to use different discipline methods on them all.

    “My son Henry carved his name into the dining room table,” the 41-year-old model told Us. “I said, ‘What’s your favorite sports car?’ He said, ‘A Ferrari.’ So I said, ‘Well, imagine you had a Ferrari and I took a knife and wrote Heidi all over the hood.’ I’m like, ‘Think of all the pieces of furniture in the house as little Ferraris, OK?’ He got it.”

    She also said that her kids are quick to catch onto things and that one of the most important lessons she has taught them and one that they are the most interested in, is being generous to the less fortunate. She explained that she taught all of her children to donate toys they no longer play with and clothes that no longer fit, to various charity organizations. She was even surprised to see how excited her kids were to help others.

    “I’ve been helping for the last 10 years, because I think what they do is important,” Klum told Us.

    What do you think of Klum’s parenting style?

  • Heidi Klum: Cooking in the Supermodel’s Home Is a Family Affair

    Heidi Klum loves to cook, and she is imparting that love on all four of the children she had with ex-husband Seal.

    “[My kids] cook everything with me. They barbecue with me, they chop with me. The little one washes,” the Project Runway host told Us Weekly during an event Thursday for the charity organization, God’s Love We Deliver, a non-profit group that provides meals for people who are too sick to cook for themselves.

    “Everyone has their part to do, because I think it’s important they see how food is made, how a dish is made,” said Klum. “A lot of younger people nowadays don’t know how to cook. No one taught them. So I think it’s important to teach that to them.”

    The 41-year-old German model has many other lessons she’s also teaching 10 year-old Leni, eight-year-old Henry, seven-year-old Johan, and four-year-old Lou.

    “My son Henry carved his name into the dining room table,” the America’s Got Talent host told Us. “I said, ‘What’s your favorite sports car?’ He said, ‘A Ferrari.’ So I said, ‘Well, imagine you had a Ferrari and I took a knife and wrote Heidi all over the hood.’ I’m like, ‘Think of all the pieces of furniture in the house as little Ferraris, OK?’ He got it.”

    Klum is also teaching her children about charitable gestures, such as donating unused toys or volunteering, as she does consistently for God’s Love We Deliver.

    “I’ve been helping for the last 10 years, because I think what they do is important,” Klum told Us.

    Joan Rivers was another supporter of the organization.

    “Joan brought love, compassion and humor to every delivery she made and every event she supported,” the organization wrote in a statement on its website. “Joan’s impact on God’s Love will be felt always by our clients, volunteers, staff and community. Rest in peace, Joan. You will forever be in our hearts.”

  • Heidi Klum And New Beau Vito Schnabel Spotted At Famous London Hotspot

    On Sunday, Heidi Klum, 41, was spotted with her younger beau 27-year-old Vito Schnabel. The couple went to Chiltern Firehouse restaurant, one of the popular spots in London. Klum was wearing a black and white printed jumpsuit, black stilettos, and a leather jacket to keep her warm, while Schnabel kept it simple with a t-shirt and khakis. The two looked happy as they left the restaurant and got a taxi.

    Klum and R&B singer Seal were married for seven years before their divorce in 2012. Lately, the two were spotted together, which ignited the rumors that they could be getting back together. However, with Sunday’s appearance, it seems Klum may be going in a different direction.

    Klum started dating Schnabel after her split from bodyguard Martin Kirsten. Since Klum started dating Schnabel, an art dealer, they have been seen together in different parts of the globe.

    In March, pictures of Klum and Schnabel surfaced when they visited Paris, France. They were seen holding hands, visiting the Mona Lisa, and even sharing some escargot.

    A month after their Paris trip, the two went to Mexico where their public display of affection made them the center of attention. They sunbathed and played on the beach while enjoying the cool ocean and warm sunrays.

    In May, Klum and Schnabel attended the Puerto Azul Experience Night in Cannes, France. Klum attended wearing a gorgeous white gown and she had Schnabel by her side who sported a suit and tie.

    Schnabel is an independent art dealer and curator who is based in New York. He is the son of artist Julian Schnabel who is famous for his “plate paintings” done in the 1980’s. Schnabel has dated other celebrities before Klum, and he may have a thing for beautiful older women. He has been linked to actress Demi Moore and supermodel Elle Macpherson.

  • Heidi Klum and Seal Do Disney With the Kids

    Heidi Klum and ex-hubby Seal may have had a rocky break up but the two appear to be taking their co-parenting duties very seriously–and succeeding at them, too. The two were spotted with their children–Leni is 10, Henry is 8, Johan is 7, and Lou is 4 years old–doing Disneyland and having lots of wholesome family fun. It was Wednesday when the whole gang was spotted riding the rides and laughing with Mickey Mouse.

    Klum, who is presently a judge on American’s Got Talent, and the ‘Kiss from a Rose’ singer split back in 2012 after seven married years together. At Disneyland the family enjoyed King Triton’s Carousel, the teacups (hope no one threw up), a boat ride, and even a roller coaster.

    One of the brave parents (who survives that many theme park rides in one day?) was still smiling when it came time to ham it up with Mickey Mouse.

    “Great day in Disneyland!!!! Thank you Mickey!!” Heidi Klum captioned her Instagram photo.

    On Sunday the supermodel turned 41, so perhaps the Disneyland adventure was a pre-birthday family bash for Mom? No one would believe the former Sports Illustrated cover girl and Victoria’s Secret model was past 40 if they didn’t see it in black and white. Klum has aged gracefully and doesn’t appear as though she’s had much–if anything–done to preserve her youth.

    Kudos to Heidi Klum and Seal for their efforts at co-parenting. For many parents this becomes dropping the children off at the ex’s for the weekend or shuffling back and forth a week at a time. This mode of co-parenting Klum and Seal appear to have isn’t so much about the living arrangements as it is about being a family, and making it clear to the children that even though Mom and Dad couldn’t make their marriage work that they’re still a family and that their parents will unite for their benefit.

    One day all six of them will reap the benefits of having raised their children this way.

  • Heidi Klum Goes Topless in Mexico

    Heidi Klum Goes Topless in Mexico

    German supermodel Heidi Klum was recently spotted on a beach in Tulum, Mexico while vacationing with her latest boyfriend, 27-year-old Vito Schnabel. Klum, 40, has been dating Schnabel, a New York art dealer, since February, and took a topless dip while in the Caribbean.

    Klum, a mother of four, was also seen last month with Schnabel in Paris, not long after splitting from her bodyguard boyfriend Martin Kirsten in January. Kirsten had been the rebound for Klum’s ex-husband of seven years, the pop-singer Seal.

    Schnabel, son of film director Julian Schnabel, appears to enjoy the company of older women, and has been previously linked to cougars that include Demi Moore and Elle Macpherson.

    Klum snapped some shots of her Tulum stay for Instagram:


    Aside from her work as a model, Klum has seen gigs as a fashion designer and a television host, producer and actress. She’s well-known as a former member of the judges’ panel and as an executive producer on Lifetime’s successful Project Runway. Klum first achieved fame after being featured in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, and became the first German model to become a Victoria’s Secret Angel.

    In 2011, Forbes reported that Klum earned roughly $20 million, making her the second highest-paid model, behind Gisele Bundchen. As an actress, Klum played small roles in films including Ella Enchanted, The Devil Wears Prada and Perfect Stranger. Klum has also made appearances on the television shows Sex and the City, How I Met Your Mother and Parks and Recreation, and is presently a judge on the NBC reality show America’s Got Talent.

  • Heidi Klum’s Bra Was Stolen By Magician

    The stunning Heidi Klum had no idea what she was in for when she signed up as a judge for hit show America’s Got Talent!

    In the new season of Talent, one very brave magician decided to wow the bra off of the blonde Victoria’s Secret model during the audition process for the reality show.

    “There was a magician and one minute I was wearing a bra, and then next minute he was holding my bra and I have no idea how he did that!” Klum exclaimed at the NBCUniversal Summer Press Tour on Tuesday.

    Klum went on to explain how the magical act happened. She even admitted that she gave fellow co-host Howie a peek underneath her blouse to prove the magician did in fact steal her bra!

    “He wanted to know if it was really missing and he checked and it was gone,” she said.

    “That was my favorite morning so far on the show,” Howie proclaimed. “The show benefited, I benefited and the act benefited.”

    So did the gorgeous Klum ever get her bra back?

    It seems the magician kept the supermodel’s bra leaving Klum bare-chested for the remainder of auditions.

    “I was a little droopy from then on!” she jokingly said.

    Talent premiers Tuesday, May 27 and features some exciting new additions to the show.

    “If we don’t like an act, we can buzz [them off], but now every judge has the opportunity to save someone,” Heidi said. “So if someone gets three Xs and you believe in that person enough, you can hit the Golden Buzzer.” But here’s the catch: each judge can only push the Golden Buzzer once per season.

  • Heidi Klum Enjoys Paris Getaway With Vito Schnabel

    Heidi Klum and her new beau Vito Schnabel were spotted out and about in Paris on Monday. The two were enjoying art galleries and taking in some of the other tourist attractions in the City of Love. Some might even call this new man Klum’s boy toy, as he is just 27 years old. Heidi Klum is 40.

    Klum split with her bodyguard boyfriend Martin Kirsten back in January. He’s the one she took up with shortly after (some believe it was actually before, but that was never confirmed) parting ways with Seal, her husband of about 7 years.

    Clearly not one to waste much time in the boyfriend department, Klum and Schnabel were seen sharing some kisses at an Oscars event earlier this month. That would have been just weeks after her split from Kirsten.

    Vito Schnabel is the son of director Julian Schnabel. He has been known in the art world as a curator and dealer since he was just a teenager. He has been previously linked to some other A-list Hollywood ladies including Demi Moore, Liv Tyler and Elle Macpherson.

    Do you suppose Heidi Klum plans to make Schnabel her children’s new stepfather or is this just a fling? She has four children–Leni, Henry, Johan and Lou.

    The super model seemed rather enamored with her destination earlier this week as she tweeted a view of the Eiffel Tower.

    The executive producer of Project Runway, Klum is also a model, television host, fashion designer, businesswoman and actress. Even with all these titles–in addition to that of mother of 4–she still manages to take time out for romantic trips to Paris. Vito Schnabel is one very lucky man.

    Do you expect this new relationship between Heidi Klum and Vito Schnabel is the real thing or will she be passing him over in favor of yet another man–possibly one who is closer to her own age?

  • Heidi Klum Gets Hot And Heavy With Cougar Magnet Vito Schnabel

    Heidi Klum doesn’t seem to be licking her wounds after her split with Martin Kristen, judging from her recent tryst with rumored boyfriend Vito Schnabel. The 40-year-old German-American supermodel and the 27-year-old art dealer were spotted several times at various Oscar events, the first of which was the Weinstein Co. pre-Oscars party in Beverly Hills. Klum looked fetching in a black floor-length beaded dress that showcased her tanned complexion and toned arms, while Schnabel kept it casual with a long-sleeved shirt and jeans.

    The Project Runway host was said to have exchanged kisses with her much younger boy toy while they were waiting to be admitted to the VIP area of the party along with other friends. Several partygoers who saw the two lovebirds said they were “all over each other” on the dance floor. After having a few glasses of champagne, Klum and Schnabel discreetly tried to leave the party together.

    Klum, who has four children, became officially divorced with former husband Seal in 2012 after seven months of marriage. She dated former bodyguard Martin Kristen a few months after her divorce, but they parted ways – personally and professionally – early this year. Klum was also in a five-year marriage with celebrity hairstylist Ric Pipino from 1997 to 2002.

    Vito Schnabel, who is the son of artist and filmmaker Julian Schnabel, is an art dealer and independent curator based in New York City. He was reported to have hooked up with Klum in early February at the Bootsy Bellows nightclub. Schnabel seems to have a penchant for older beautiful women as he previously dated actress Demi Moore, Liv Tyler, and Australian supermodel Elle Macpherson.

    Klum is an avid user of social networking app Instagram, although she has not posted any photos of her and Schnabel together. The America’s Got Talent judge is due to start shooting again on May 27 in New York.

  • Heidi Klum: Is She Back Together With Seal?

    Heidi Klum: Is She Back Together With Seal?

    Yesterday rumors were spreading around the internet that Heidi Klum and Seal were back together. Today, those rumors appear to be false. According to E! News, the German super model and the Crazy singer are still separated.

    Seal’s rep put the rumors to bed today. “Seal and Heidi have not reunited as a couple. Their children will always be their priority, and their focus remains on co-parenting.”

    Several different pieces of information led gossip sites and fans to the incorrect conclusion that the couple, who separated in 2012 after seven years of marriage, was not pursuing the plan to finalize their divorce. First, Klum reportedly split from her bodyguard boyfriend Martin Kristen a few weeks ago. Second, Seal was rumored to be sleeping over Klum’s house instead of leaving after dinner. Third, they have three biological kids together plus Seal legally adopted Klum’s daughter. They’ve repeatedly insisted that their children are their top priority.

    Klum, 40, has reportedly been active on the dating scene since her marriage dissolved. Besides her relationship with Kristen, which started a few months after her separation with Seal, she was also allegedly spotted with Demi Moore’s ex Vito Schabel. The America’s Got Talent judge and the 27-year-old art dealer were reported to be kissing at Bootsy Bellows, a trendy Hollywood night club. A person who says to have witnessed the smooch told X!7Online, “Heidi was acting like a teenager. I guess being with a younger guy was making her act like she was in high school. She was kissing his face all over as they enjoyed drinks with friends.”

    You can see Klum back in the judging chair for Season 9 of NBC’s hit reality show competition America’s Got Talent alongside Howard Stern, Mel B., and Howie Mandel. The show is set to air this summer.

  • Heidi Klum and Bodyguard Boyfriend Call It Quits

    Attention all men of exceptional build and looks, now is your chance to attempt to bag a supermodel. It has been reported that supermodel/goddess Heidi Klum has split with longtime boyfriend and professional bodyguard Martin Kristen.

    The big breakup reportedly happened a few weeks ago, which makes the fact that it is just hitting news stands quite impressive given Klum’s celebrity. The split was also thought to be mutually agreed upon, which is a claim that any man with functioning eyes will dispute.

    The couple was together for just over a year, which definitely beats me personal record for dating a supermodel, so well done, Martin. They met shortly after Klum’s divorce from the musician Seal, so history suggests that her time on the market may not be very long. Any possible suitors will have to also be good with young children, since Klum has 4.

    To make matters worse for Kristen, friends of the two are claiming that not only did they call it quits romantically, but also professionally. However, it is believed that they mean to remain friends, much like how Klum and Seal still come together on occasion, such as their children’s birthdays. That means there’s always hope that Klum and Kristen can reconcile down the line, although something tells me that she will have no shortage of guys vying for her affection, so those hopes may be pretty slim.

  • Heidi Klum Is A Single Lady Again

    Heidi Klum, who split from husband Seal in 2012, has been in a relationship with former bodyguard Martin Kirstin for over a year now, but reps for the “Project Runway” host say the couple are no more.

    Klum began dating Kirstin during a tumultuous time in her life, but the two have seemed happy in recent months.

    “Martin was there for her during a challenging time in her life and it was something she will always be grateful for,” a source told People Magazine.

    Seal made public comments about their relationship soon after he split from the supermodel, saying she should have waited until their divorce was final before she started “fornicating with the help”. However, he later clarified that Klum never cheated on him with her bodyguard. Klum told Katie Couric in 2012 that she was in love, and trusted Kirstin not just with her own life, but with the lives of her children.

    “I trust him with my children’s life,” Klum said. “He’s a great man . . . and we just got to know each other from a completely different side.”

    The “source” who spoke to People says that while they have decided to go their separate ways, the split was amicable.

    “They are no longer working together,” the source said. “Life is about timing. He was incredibly supportive and they were there for each other, but they’re moving on now. They still have a great friendship.”

  • Heidi Klum Had A Pretty Awesome Halloween Costume

    Heidi Klum is well-known for her outrageous Halloween parties, and for the amount of time and care she puts into her costume every year. The supermodel has gone as Cleopatra, a skinless corpse, and various animals over the years, but this year she decided to go a bit more low-key. That doesn’t mean it was any less awesome.

    The “Project Runway” host might have taken a page out of the “Bad Grampa” book when she concocted this year’s costume:

    Image: Twitter

    Klum tweeted sneak peeks of the costume as she was sitting in the makeup chair, so it wasn’t difficult to figure out that she was going for a much different look than usual. She says she prepares for months ahead of time every year before her annual bash.

    “I start thinking of ideas months before Halloween, and I have an amazing team who makes the impossible possible,” she said. “I don’t really have a system for picking my costume each year, they just kind of come to me. It’s definitely not a last-minute decision. It takes months of preparation…I take Halloween very seriously, so I’m not a fan of a thrown-together costume, but in an absolute pinch, look around at what items you have around your house. You’d be surprised what you can come up with. Or cut two holes in a bed sheet and be a ghost. But seriously, I’d rather stay home than go out in an uninspired costume.”

  • Heidi Klum Prepares For Halloween

    Heidi Klum Prepares For Halloween

    Heidi Klum is known for her modeling career where she has hosted Project Runway as well as her entrepreneurial skills. However, the popular celebrity is also famously recognized for her knack of remembering and enjoying holidays.

    As October 31st nears, Heidi Klum is getting ready for her annual Halloween celebrations. This year, Heidi will host her 14th annual holiday party located at the Marquee nightclub in New York. She has even received the nickname “Queen of Halloween” due to elaborate celebratory festivities surrounding this holiday.

    The forty-year-old model has selected a “scary dollhouse” theme and has already secured the musical act. DJ Questlove will be the one responsible for making sure the party has hopping tunes to delight the party-goers. Shutterfly, the photo publishing site, will be responsible for decorating the club with the best-themed decorations.

    Past Halloweens have shown that Heidi Klum can adorn herself with a wide selection of uniquely-tailored costumes befitting someone who has become as internationally renowned for unique physical presentations as she has. Heidi Klum has attended her annual Halloween holiday bashes dressed as a feminine and seductive crow, a transformers-inspired robot, a furry ape with wide white ears, and even the golden goddess otherwise referred to as the Queen of the Nile, Cleopatra.

    It should come as no surprise that Heidi has been preparing for the 2013 Halloween party for quite a while. In fact, back in July of this year, Heidi posted a picture on her twitter account claiming that she was already in the process of working on her ensemble for the Halloween bash. In the following tweet, Heidi gave the public a glimpse at what she is planning for this year’s party.

  • Heidi Klum Gets Naked On Instagram

    Heiki Klum isn’t one to be shy about her body, and although she’s posted some racy pics of herself on Instagram this week, the latest one takes the cake.

    Klum recently shared a photo from 2009, when she posed completely nude on the beach for Russell James. The pic was captioned, “Photo blast from the past: Splitternackt!” which means “totally nude” in German.

    Klum talked about her thoughts on her body in an interview with Allure last year, saying, “I was too curvy and too busty and a little too short… And I was a little bit self-conscious about it. But I was by no means heavy, I just — well, you have hips and boobs, and that’s it. Haute couture, you don’t really see girls with big boobs.”

    She also talked about plastic surgery, saying it’s just not for her.

    “Everyone has a view of what’s pretty and what’s not pretty, and [surgery] just doesn’t look pretty to me,” she said. “Especially when I see it on really young girls. I don’t want to name names, but it’s like, Wow, I remember you five years ago, looking to me so beautiful, and now it’s like… who is this person? And I know girls half my age who do it. What are they gonna do at 40 or 50, when the s-h-i-t really hits the fan?”

    That’s okay, Heidi, you don’t need any work done. Take a look at her revealing photos below.

  • Klum Saves Drowning Son in Hawaii

    It turns out that Heidi Klum has skills that go beyond hosting and modeling. The 39-year-old host of TV show Project Runway has told US Weekly that she had a hand in saving her family from drowning.

    According to the report, Klum was on a beach in Oahu, Hawaii this week when a riptide swept two nannies and her seven-year-old son Henry out into the water. She and her bodyguard, Martin Kirsten (who is also her boyfriend), were able to play Baywatch and save the stranded swimmers. Heidi admits, though, that Henry was able to swim back to shore by himself.

    Klum and her family had been vacationing in Hawaii for the Easter holiday. Before the incident occurred, Klum had posted a picture to her Twitter feed depicting Easter eggs sitting on the black volcanic rock of a Hawaiian beach:

    Heidi Klum’s Makeup-Free Photo Shoot

    Heidi Klum appears in a new photo campaign aimed at raising money for disadvantaged children, and although the supermodel and “Project Runway” host is well-accustomed to posing for pictures, this one was a little different.

    The Children In Need Bearfaced Campaign has its subjects wearing no makeup, the only facial adornment being a tiny paw print on the cheek. And while most celebrities don’t often go out in public without their warpaint, sources close to Klum say she’s doing it a lot more since her divorce from husband Seal, as though she feels more comfortable in her own skin.

    The U.K.-based campaign wants women to go makeup-free on November 9th in order to help raise funds for children in need, something Klum says is close to her heart.

    “I am so proud to be taking part in this year’s BBC Children in Need BearFaced campaign,” Klum said. “Having worked in the fashion industry for a number of years, I am a firm believer of encouraging women’s empowerment. And what better way to do so than by supporting such a fantastic charity.”
