  • Tyra Banks Has A Bone To Pick With Victoria’s Secret

    Tyra Banks has been retired from modeling for nearly nine years now, but she said she might be open for a reunion if the idea ever came about.

    During Tuesday night’s episode of Watch What Happens Live, Banks was asked that question. She revealed that she had been asked to do a reunion several years ago, but the America’s Next Top Model host was trying to be taken seriously as a talk show host and business woman.

    “I have been asked to do a reunion many years ago,” Banks, who was a Victoria’s Secret Angel from 1997 until 2005, said. “I said no because I was trying to be taken seriously as a talk show host and as an executive producer and as a businesswoman.”

    Since then, Gisele Bündchen and Heidi Klum have also retired their wings, and Banks said she would be open to doing a reunion with her former friends. “I don’t know if I would. But whenever I see them, I feel like we have a connection, these Angels, because we’re like the O.G. original Angels. Like, that was invented on us,” Banks said.

    Banks also admitted that she has a bone to pick with Victoria’s Secret. Banks said, when she left the company, she was told that she would be getting free Victoria’s Secret products for life. However, she only received them for a year, which upset her. “The president of Victoria’s Secret promised me a lifetime supply of Victoria’s Secret products, even after I decided to leave the company. But once I left, he only let me have it for a year. So I have a bone to pick.”

    Aside from a possible modeling reunion, Banks has revealed that she is working on a Life-Size sequel that may include Lindsay Lohan. The original film starred Banks and Lohan, who was only 11 years old at the time. “This time I’m executive producing it and we’re in the process of writing,” she said. “We haven’t spoken to Lindsay, but you never know. I mean, she’s a woman now. She’d be like, ‘Hey, Eve doll. You used to be my Barbie.’”

  • Tyra Banks Says Victoria’s Secret Did Not Keep Promise They Made

    Tyra Banks has “a bone to pick” with Victoria’s Secret. The ex-model was a guest at Bravo’s Watch What Happens Live where she told Andy Cohen that Victoria’s Secret did not own up to a promise they made when she was still with them.

    The 40-year-old model turned businesswoman said: “The president of Victoria’s Secret promised me a lifetime supply of Victoria’s Secret products, even after I decided to leave the company, but once I left, he only let me have it for a year. So I have a bone to pick.”

    Banks retired from modelling a few years ago and has instead focused on her career as a serious talk show host and businesswoman. According to her, this is also why she declined offers to go back.

    “I have been asked to do a reunion many years ago, and I said no” says the creator and judge of the hit reality show series  America’s Next Top Model, “because I was trying to be taken seriously as a talk show host and as an executive producer and as a businesswoman.”

    Banks worked with Victoria’s Secret for a total of eight years, from 1997 to 2005, and has been one of the main icons of the brand in that period.

    Should the opportunity to reunite and work with them come around again, she says she doesn’t know if she would take it. She did say that she still feels a connection with her co-angels from the old days because of their bond as the original angels.  There’s still the possibility, since she hasn’t given a definite answer. The other two original VS angels, Gisele Bündchen and Heidi Klum, have also moved on from modelling to other more mature careers.

    Fans of the California native can also look forward to a sequel to her 2001 movie Life Size.  Banks told Cohen that she is currently in the process of writing Life Size 2, for which she is also executive producer. When pressed about giving Lindsey Lohan a role, she answered: “right now, we haven’t spoken to Lindsay, but you never know, she’s a woman now.”

  • Tyra Banks Isn’t Happy With Victoria’s Secret

    Tyra Banks isn’t very happy with Victoria’s Secret. Although the former model rose to stardom during her tenure as a Victoria’s Secret Angel, she still has a bone to pick with the famous San Francisco-based company.

    According to ABC News, Banks recently appeared on Bravo’s Watch What Happens with Andy Cohen. During her chat with Cohen, she revealed why she isn’t too happy with the massive lingerie retailer.

    The America’s Next Top Model creator revealed a promise was made to her by the company when she was an Angel. However, the promise was broken shortly after her departure.

    “The president of Victoria’s Secret promised me a lifetime supply of Victoria’s Secret products, even after I decided to leave the company,” she explained to Cohen. “But once I left, he only let me have it for a year. So I have a bone to pick.”

    Banks was a Victoria’s Secret Angel from 1997 to 2005. However, her career didn’t stop there. In 2010, she re-signed with her former modeling agency IMG Models. She’s also now a fashion contributor for the Vogue Italia website. Then, of course, there’s still the ever-popular America’s Next Top Model.

    “I have been asked to do a reunion many years ago, and I said no because I was trying to be taken seriously as a talk show host and as an executive producer and as a businesswoman,” Banks revealed.

    When asked if she’d consider taking the company up on their offer now, she revealed she’s still undecided about it all.

    “I don’t know if I would,” she said. “But whenever I see them, I feel like we have a connection, these Angels, because we’re like the O.G. original Angels. Like, that was invented on us.”

    The 21st cycle of America’s Next Top Model is scheduled to premiere Monday, August 18, 2014 at 9/8c.

  • Chrissy Teigen: Outfit Missing Bra and Pants

    Chrissy Teigen took a stroll on a New York City street Wednesday night, but she seemed to have left integral parts of her outfit at home. John Legend’s new wife was spotted out and about wearing a button down shirt and boots. Important wardrobe staples that were missing included her bra and her pants.

    That’s right. That button down shirt became quite sexy when it wasn’t paired with jeans–and it was unbuttoned enough to not only reveal her braless state, but to allow a peek at her breasts as well.

    It’s uncertain where Chrissy Teigen believed she had to go in such a hurry that she couldn’t finish getting dressed. She’s lucky she wasn’t cited for indecent exposure. Of course no one really knows whether she sported tiny little shorts under the long shirt or not. Teigen didn’t seem to shy away from the paparazzi’s cameras either. In fact, when she was spotted she opened her arms wide–allowing even more of a view–and very nearly suffering a wardrobe malfunction.

    If anyone can pull off a look like the one on display on Wednesday night, Chrissy Teigen can. The Victoria’s Secret model is drop dead gorgeous, with a body women would kill for and men clamor to see. It would seem, however, that given the money she makes and hubby John Legend’s recent hit song ‘All of Me,’ that Chrissy could afford to dress for a New York City stroll.

    Hopefully she’ll dress more appropriately when practicing for this event.

    Baseball–even just a first pitch–dressed in Chrissy Teigen’s Wednesday night attire could cause some serious wardrobe malfunctions–and would no doubt blow up Twitter, too.

  • Behati Prinsloo, Mrs. Adam Levine, Talks Victoria’s Secret Gig

    Behati Prinsloo–the new Mrs. Adam Levine–spoke recently about her gig as a Victoria’s Secret Angel, and despite the confidence the sexy supermodel exudes, she admits to feeling some jitters.

    “I was so nervous in the beginning,” Behati said. “You’re in your underwear in front of all these staring people,” Prinsloo said. “But it really does motivate you to be your best and look your best. All the girls are doing squats backstage!”

    When you check out this Victoria’s Secret photo of Behati that she posted just a couple of weeks ago, you can see the backstage squats worked nicely for the supermodel.

    She captioned this shot, ‘Paris at midnight @victoriassecret’

    Born in Namibia–a country in southern Africa–the newlywed graces the cover of the virtual magazine The Edit, and within its content shares her personal style–high fashion grunge.

    “My look is grungy, very rock ‘n’ roll,” she said. “I love the ’70s; I love the vibe. The music I listen to most is Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, punk. That’s why The Edit’s shoot was so cool.”

    When the 25-year-old (yes, Adam Levine married a younger woman–he is 35) isn’t in front of the cameras or on a runway she likes to hang out in a selection of tried and true favorites, including “cut-off shorts, Dr. Martens, Rag & Bone jeans, lots of vintage rock tees from secondhand shops.”

    Behati Prinsloo was discovered by the daughter of Sarah Doukas–the same woman who discovered Kate Moss back in 1988. She discovered Behati in a grocery store in Cape Town. At that time Prinsloo had no idea who Kate Moss was.

    “Growing up, I’d look at magazines and think, ‘These pretty girls are actually doctors, right?’ I didn’t even know about Kate Moss,” she said.

    These days Behati Prinsloo is excited about being Mrs. Adam Levine and she’s looking forward, too, to the first Victoria’s Secret international fashion show coming up in London.

    Do you expect The Voice coach will be on hand to support his bride?

  • Tyra Banks Headed Back to Daytime TV

    Tyra Banks Headed Back to Daytime TV

    Tyra Banks is reportedly headed back to daytime TV. The former Victoria’s Secret model and TV personality will launch a new lifestyle show set to hit the airwaves in 2015. A wide range of topics will be presented on the new as-yet unnamed daytime talk show and guests will include experts on these topics.

    “The fire to inspire women and help them to blaze new paths fiercely burns inside of me,” Banks said in a recent statement. “I’m excited to be partnering with Disney-ABC to usher in a new era of lifestyle, beauty and entertainment that will inspire women to be the CEO of their lives via honesty, humor and the newest tips and tricks without being intimidating or precious. To my fierce fam of future viewers: I can’t wait to shake up daytime TV together. I have a lot of information to give and still lots to learn. Let’s do it!”

    Some of the topics Tyra Banks will cover on her new show include fashion, beauty, entertaining and individual enterprise. She has plans to introduce celebrities and people from all walks of life who can inspire and inform her viewers.

    “With an extraordinary social media following and legions of fans built over her years on television, Tyra is more relevant than ever,” Lisa Hackner, the executive vice president of daytime and syndicated programming at ABC Entertainment Group said. “She is the ideal personality to infuse lifestyle content with fresh energy, humor, and the practical information the daytime audience craves.”

    Disney-ABC’s Summerdale Productions will produce the show along with Banks. This will be Tyra’s second daytime show. The Tyra Banks Show ran from 2005 to 2010. She is also noted for producing and hosting America’s Next Top Model which now boasts 26 international versions. The hit CW show is one of the longest running reality shows on broadcast television.

    Thereis no doubt that Tyra Banks’ new daytime show will also be a hit. Fans will be waiting eagerly to learn what she calls her new show and exactly when the first episode will air.

  • Candice Swanepoel Tops Maxim’s Hot 100 List

    There’s a new it girl in town this year, and her name is Candice Swanepoel. The 25-year-old Victoria’s Secret supermodel was just crowned No. 1 on Maxim magazine’s annual Hot 100 list. Rounding out the top three this year are Scarlett Johansson (who came thisclose to the top spot), and pop star Katy Perry. Surprisingly, last year’s number one – Miley Cyrus – was moved all the way down to #25 this year.

    In an official Maxim press release, winner Candice said, “It’s a huge honor to be Maxim’s number one, among so many beautiful and talented women! It’s a great feeling.” Creative Director Paul Martinez added that Candice was the “ideal embodiment of the new Maxim brand: stunning, sophisticated, elegant. It’s not only her flawless beauty and effortless grace that have garnered her the coveted Number 1, but also her business acumen. She has risen to become one of the world’s top supermodels and has transcended the accolade to become a global brand. It’s hard to imagine a woman more perfect.”

    Other honorees on the list include Jennifer Lawrence, Zooey Deschanel, and Mila Kunis. Making their debut on this year’s list are newcomer Margot Robbie (The Wolf of Wall Street), the Brazilian model Lisalla Montenegro, and famous reality star Kendall Jenner. Although most fans rejoice over the list, names such as Blake Lively and Adriana Lima were surprisingly left out this year.

    However, Candice definitely earned the top spot this year; the South African supermodel (who was discovered at age 15 in a flea market) has built quite a name for herself already – Candice came in at number 9 on Forbes’s list of highest-paid models. Besides Victoria’s Secret, Candice shoots for Versace and Juicy Couture. She was also honored by wearing the $10 million Fantasy Bra at last year’s Victoria’s Secret fashion show (which had been previously worn by legends Gisele Bündchen and Alessandra Ambrosio).

    Topping this year’s list seems to be just the start for Candice – we’re sure to see much more of the blonde bombshell in the future!

  • Miranda Kerr Poses as Sexy Playboy Bunny for Easter

    Not exactly what one would think of when posing for an Easter shot, but why not?

    Wearing nothing but sexy lingerie and bunny ears, Miranda Kerr posed with some other yummy treats for a an Easter video produced by Sean Thomas for The Love Magazine.

    In the video, the Australian model seductively tucks Easter candy into her lingerie, struts around a rather lavish home and writhes about on a bed loaded with all sorts of goodies.

    The let’s-face-it-she’s-gorgeous model, who seems pretty comfortable in her own skin as the video can attest, spoke recently to E! News and spilled about her confidence.

    “It comes from knowing yourself from the inside out and being authentic and individual and not being afraid of that,” she said.

    The 31-year-old – who has a 3-year-old son with estranged spouse Orlando Bloom – recently shared the shocking news that she had a strong urge to cut off her hair when she was pregnant.

    “I wanted to cut my hair when I was pregnant. I had such an urge to cut it really short.

    “I’d like to and you’ll see I’m sure in a few years. I have a [faux bob] though. I like to mix it up. One day, I’ll cut it for real.”

    The former Victoria’s Secret Angel has beautiful hair and says she can’t bear to leave the house without perfectly clean hair.

    She told The Huffington Post: “I can’t leave home without having fresh, clean hair. I wash it every second day unless I’m working back to back days, then I like to keep it fresh. There’s nothing better for me after I’ve freshly washed my hair and I’ll let it dry on its own.

    “I just love that feeling of clean hair because it’s like a little luxury in life. After I get off an airplane the first thing I do is wash my hair. If my hair is not clean I don’t feel my best.

    “I used the shampoo and conditioner and nothing else. My hair gets so much work done to it with the industry I work in. It’s constantly getting pulled, pushed and curled, and you feel like it’s nice sometimes to have a blowout and no products.”

  • 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.

  • Lindsay Ellingson: Victoria’s Secret Model Engaged

    Victoria’s Secret model Lindsay Ellingson is officially off the market. The 29-year-old has announced her engagement to longtime boyfriend Sean Clayton.

    “Yes, it’s true,” the Victoria’s Secret Angel said in a recent interview. “My love proposed last month and I couldn’t be happier!”

    Clayton was chivalrous in his proposal–waiting until he was with her family to pop the question. He did so while at their home in Ohio over the Thanksgiving holiday.

    Droves of young men from all over are likely mourning the fact that Lindsay Ellingson is no longer a single woman. Although she and Clayton haven’t tied the knot, the engagement definitely means she’s taken. Lindsay’s fellow Victoria’s Secret Angels, however, are very excited about her wonderful news.

    Lindsay Ellingson modeled for both Christian Dior and Chanel prior to her stint with Victoria’s Secret. Sean Clayton is a sales rep for a medical equipment company. She was spotted recently at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in New York City, and from the rock on her finger it was abundantly clear that she is engaged.

    No word has escaped yet as to when Lindsay and Sean will tie the knot. It’s a pretty safe bet that she will have some of the most gorgeous and sexy bridesmaids in her side of the wedding party, especially if she chooses from her diverse groups of modeling friends. Lindsay Ellingson herself will make an absolutely stunning bride.

  • Taylor Swift Cut Down by VS Model Hart

    Taylor Swift Cut Down by VS Model Hart

    Apparently, Taylor Swift’s performance at Wednesday’s Victoria Secret fashion show at the Lexington Armory in NYC wasn’t enjoyed by everyone. Although Swift has declared that she is now BFF with some of the shows top models, like Lily Aldridge, Erin Heatherton and Cara Delevingne, there is one model who is just…not impressed.

    When Jessica Hart was asked what she thought about Swift’s performance at the Victoria’s Secret show, she said, “I think, you know what, god bless her [Taylor Swift] heart. I think she’s great,” Hart said at the show’s afterparty. “But, I don’t know, to me, she didn’t fit. I don’t know if I should say that.”

    Um, probably not.

    Well, at least Swift seemed to have a really great time with her model friends at the show. She had fun taking silly selfies with new BFF, model Cara Delevingne, who also previously dated the singer’s ex Harry Styles. The two exchanged a friendly butt-slap on stage, as well, to seal their new friendship.

    It’s a good thing Taylor has other friends in the industry, according to Us Magazine. Take Karlie Kross for example, a 21-year-old Angel gushed to Us magazine that, “she and I need to be best friends! I think she’s the coolest young girl. She a great role model and I love her music.”

    Lily Aldridge was of the same opinion and gushed about Swift, “We had a little moment at the end of her song ‘Trouble,’ where we walked in front of the stage together,” the 28-year-old supermodel said of the singer. “[Taylor] is one of my best friends, so we had so much fun.”

    Hart doesn’t think that Swift fits into their world, however, and wasn’t afraid to say that either. When she was asked if she thought Taylor could be a Victoria’s Secret Model, she simply replied, “No.”

    She added, “I think what you find is that for a lot of us, we’ve been working for 14, 15 years. What it takes to make it here comes from experience and confidence and knowing how to be confident with yourself,” she explained. “I think it comes with age. It’s definitely the benchmark of all jobs.”

    Sounds like some serious back-pedaling to me.

  • Taylor Swift “Did Not Fit” At Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show

    Taylor Swift has been dissed badly by a model who was also a part of the fashion show that Victoria’s Secret held on Wednesday. While some people have said that the country singer had a rocking performance, and stole the show, model Jessica Hart said in an interview at an after-party that the country singer simply did not fit with the event.

    Hart is a model for Victoria’s Secret, and while she says that she thinks that Taylor Swift is great, for some reason she just did not feel that Taylor Swift was able to fit in at the fashion show.

    Taylor Swift took the stage as the musical entertainment of the evening, and she sang her songs as the models walked down the runway in their sexy outfits. She tried out modeling a bit herself in some extravagant outfits, and was criticized by Hart after the show.

    The event was held on Wednesday at the Lexington Armory in New York City. Before she opened up at the after-party to Women’s Wear Daily, the Austrailian model admitted that that Swfit was great, but soon revealed, “I don’t know, to me, she didn’t fit. I don’t know if I should say that. I think what you find is that for a lot of us, we’ve been working for 14, 15 years; what it takes to make it here comes from experience and confidence and knowing how to be confident with yourself. I think it comes with age.”

    It is hard to tell where she is coming from with this type of statement, but it does not seem like it would take 15 years to become a model, and Taylor Swift has certainly accomplished a lot in her short career already.

    Do you think it was right for Swift to be at the event? Would Taylor Swift be able to pull off being a Victoria’s Secret model? Share your thoughts.

    The show will not air until December 10th, when fans will finally be able to judge her performance, but other attendees at the show reported that she sang her song “I Knew You Were Trouble,” and was well-received by the audience.

    Taylor Swift has been hailed for her voice throughout her career. On this occasion, she attempted to combine her vocal performance with a modeling stint, and while some people say that she succeeded, Jessica Hart had other things to say about it.

  • Taylor Swift Rocks Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show

    Taylor Swift will be seen rocking among the Angels in the 2013 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show which is scheduled to air December 10th. But the sneak peeks from the sexy show leave us wondering whether Swift steals the glitz from the Angels as she parades around in her stunning ensembles.

    Swift’s most breathtaking piece appears to be a silver, sequin-adorned dress which may have blinded (or hypnotized) all onlookers in the audience. The fitted silver dress is fantastically icy as it sparkles while swift comes down the runway.

    As one reporter of Splash put it, Swift could have been mistaken for one of the Victoria’s Secret Angels. The microphone may be the only thing distinguishing the beautiful Taylor swift from the models. Well, she may also be wearing little more fabric than the other ladies.

    An ethereal-looking Swift is seen walking hand-in-hand with the heavenly beauty Lily Aldridge as they make their way toward drooling spectators. Ok, so maybe Swift is making effort to share the spotlight with the VS models.

    Taylor might not be a glitz hog after all. But of course, who could possibly be ignoring the beautiful goddess walking alongside her? Lily Aldridge looks equally astounding as she struts with Swift wearing a white peacock-like piece with an elegant corset. Ms. Swift seemed to be excited about it. She just had to tweet:

    https://twitter.com/taylorswift13/status/400824273474162688

    But it doesn’t seem that the only look Taylor offers is one of soft beauty. Prior to making her transformation into snow princess, snapshots reveal a bold and striking dress with a Union Jack pattern. Adding to the drama of the look, a long train flows from the dress with bright-colored stripes.

    Oh, are we forgetting that Taylor Swift is a musician and not a contestant on America’s Next Top Model? Sorry. Well, Taylor Swift clearly performs something, as do the other musical guests which include Fall Out Boy, A Great Big World, and Neon Jungle. We’ll all have to tune in to see what happens!

  • Candice Swanepoel Spills Catwalk-Ready Secrets

    Candice Swanepoel has quickly made a name for herself among all the beautiful Victoria’s Secret models, and after being chosen to wear the coveted $10 million “Royal Fantasy Bra“, that name has been all over the headlines.

    Swanepoel strutted down the catwalk wearing the precious lingerie in the 2013 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show on Wednesday, showing off 4,200 gems including rubies, diamonds and yellow sapphires. The stones were set in 18-carat gold and an enormous 52-carat pear-shaped ruby hung in the center. Since 1996, it’s been tradition for one of the models to don a “Fantasy Bra” which is adorned with millions of dollars worth of stones; Claudia Schiffer was the first to do it, but the most expensive, elaborate piece was worn by Gisele Bundchen in 2000. The “Red Hot Fantasy Bra” was worth $20 million.

    Of course, it takes a lot of preparation to get catwalk-ready, and Swanepoel says she has a surefire way to get her body in top condition before such a big show.

    “I ramp up my workouts and I cut back on stuff that’s not good for me,” she said. “I workout like five times a week for an hour or two each time for the month before the show. I do a lot of green juices and green tea. Then I eat stuff like salads and lean proteins and try to avoid the obvious things like salt and sugar and carbs.”

    Her workout routine isn’t as hardcore as one might think, however; the South African beauty says she would rather relax a little first.

    “I just try to relax and enjoy it. I don’t do anything crazy the 24 hours leading up to the show because by now it won’t really make a difference. I just do what I’ve been doing,” she said.

    The fashion show will be televised on CBS on Tuesday, December 10.

  • Gisele Bündchen Buys Condo In NYC

    Gisele Bündchen and her New England Patriots quarterback husband, Tom Brady, have purchased a condo in New York City’s One Madison Park glass tower for $14 million, according to Page Six.

    A source recently spoke with Page Six about the sale.

    “They went for the model apartment, which is a full-floor private residence with amazing city and river-to-river plus park views.”

    The pair’s condominium will be on the 47th floor and contain three bedrooms. Danish designer Thomas Juul-Hansen is responsible for decorating the interior of the unit, which boasts to have an exquisite decor. The master bedroom will include his and hers closets as well as a double vanity in the master bathroom.

    Gisele, who was rated the highest earning model of 2013 by Forbes with an income of $42 million, may have chosen the condo for the reportedly amazing scenic views with a supposedly nice shot of Madison Avenue. On the other hand, she may have been coaxed into taking the condo by her husband because he may have liked the beautiful view.

    According to another source who spoke with Page Six, “It will allow Tom Brady to look down on Gotham like Batman.”

    (image)

    Gisele has been recognized for seven consecutive years as being a top-earning supermodel. For the most recent list, Gisele even made more than Tom Brady (her $42 million to his $38.3 million).

    Thirty-three-year-old Gisele is involved in many projects, which keep her at the top of the high-earning list. She is involved with her cosmetics company, Sejaa, that prides itself on being environmentally-friendly. She also has part ownership in the footwear company, Grendane. Her endorsements are plenty including: Pantene, Oral-B and Sky HDTV. So, she should be able to afford the new property at One Madison Park glass tower.

  • Miranda Kerr Steps Out in Paris and Cosmo

    Miranda Kerr is back on the catwalk, walking for Chanel’s 2014 Spring-Summer prêt-à-porter show and Stella McCartney’s Spring 2014 show, during Paris Fashion Week. The 30-year-old wife and mother strutted right alongside models almost 10 years younger, including hot ticket Cara Delevingue (21-years-old).

    The former Victoria’s Secret Angel is also gracing the cover of November’s Cosmopolitan magazine. She is taking this opportunity to offer commentary about her success and the strength and support she needed to get where she is today. During the Cosmo interview, she gives a shout-out to hubby Orlando Bloom and reveals their son’s opinion—two-year-old Flynn—about who does the bulk of the work in the family, “Flynn says Mommy works and Daddy plays, because Daddy is in a play… so that makes sense.”

    “I’m a lot stronger than people think,” Kerr says, talking about starting her own company—Kora Organics, skincare products—and the intensity of being involved at every level. “I’m that person who says, no matter what the problem is, there’s a solution. That’s the way my brain is wired… I can take no for an answer and accept it—but if there’s a solution and I can make it work, why wouldn’t I?”

    But Kerr also promotes a little alternative women’s lib, with a plug for McCartney, “Don’t feel like you have to do and be everything. Let the man do some things for you, because if he cares for you, he will want to. When I get home, I’m not the boss like I am at work—I slip into a more feminine role. I take everything off and put on my Stella McCartney silk robe.”

    Aussie-born Kerr also spoke about the downsides of the modeling world. “Models are some of the most insecure people I’ve ever met,” Kerr told Cosmo, “They’re constantly being told they’re not good enough. You’ve really got to practice loving yourself.”

    Wondering what a super model takes home as a souvenir from all her exotic photo shoots? “I collect underwear from my travels. Lace, lingerie, bodysuits…they’re like souvenirs.”

  • Kate Upton Furious Over Victoria’s Secret Photo

    Kate Upton is reportedly pretty irate over a photo of her that showed up in a recent Victoria’s Secret catalog, not only because she never gave her consent, but because the brand talked so much smack about her before she became one of the biggest models in the world.

    One of the people in charge of booking VS models, Sophia Neophitou, said last year, ”We would never use Kate . . . She’s like a footballer’s wife, with the too-blond hair and that kind of face that anyone with enough money can go out and buy.”

    Of course, Kate went on to be the most popular Sports Illustrated cover girl in quite a while and practically broke the internet with her YouTube video. All that fame must have been too much for VS to pass up, because they included her in the new catalog despite the fact that the photo is from two years ago.

    Despite the photos and a swell of rumors, Kate isn’t contracted with the company to become an Angel.

  • Kendall Jenner: Victoria’s Secret Modeling is Something She’d Love to Do

    While her older half-sisters deal with new puppies, old husbands, and baby names, Kendall Jenner is just beginning her career as a fashion model. Last month, the 17-year-old displayed her olympian genetics on the cover of Harper’s Bazaar Arabia and complained that calling her skinny is just as much of an insult as calling someone fat.

    This week, Jenner attended a private viewing of artist Russel James’ photography exhibit, of which her image is a part. E! News caught up with her at the viewing and asked her about where her career will be going in the future. In response to a question about whether she would ever want to be a Victoria’s Secret model, Jenner said, “It’s always been kind of a dream of mine. It’s a very great thing to do. I don’t know. It’s something I’d love to do.”

    In other recent Kendall Jenner news, the aspiring model ran into the omnivore’s dilemma this week. On Thursday she posted a video showing off the massive amount of food stored in her pantry while complaining that she can’t decide what to eat:
