Heidi Klum covers the May issue of Allure, and the photo shoot — which I think is supposed to be a homage to 1970s Vogue shoots — is just so zzzzzzzzzz. As much as I admire Heidi’s entrepreneurial spirit and business savviness, I can’t get excited about her as a model, which is weird, right? Like even with the below nude shot, she’s merely a bronzed, blonde Goddess of Boredom:
Maybe I’m being too hard on Heidi here, and it’s really the stylists to blame for this photo shoot atrocity. The interview is much more interesting, and here are some excerpts where Heidi talks about various things including breaking into modelling and how awful plastic surgery looks to her:
On her pre-Victoria’s Secret career: “I never did fashion shows–not in Paris or Berlin or even in New York City. I tried, but no one would book me. 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. And I always wanted first to be a model. So I had to say, ‘OK, you’re going to find other things to do in this industry, or it’s maybe not my industry.’”
Gay men are awesome: “They are like this kaleidoscope of interesting thoughts and opinions. They teach you so many things about men that are useful.”
She’s never had cosmetic surgery or botox: “Ask me again when I’m 65, but…I’m proud to be able to say, in this day and age, I haven’t done anything. Everyone has a view of what’s pretty and what’s not pretty, and [surgery'just doesn't look pretty to me. 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 sh-t really hits the fan?"
On marriage/divorce to Seal: "It's hard, just like for other couples. People go through our trash cans. It's crazy. And you know, we have four kids; they have to go to school. You know, I wouldn't change anything. If I had to go back in time and say, 'I should have changed this or that...' No. I don't resent anything that ever happened. Things just turn out the way they turn out... I'm still in the eye of the storm now, and it's all a little bit crazy. But sometimes you have to be apart in order to figure it out."
[From Allure]
Do I believe that Heidi has yet to alter her appearance with either cosmetic surgery or botox? Sure, she looks pretty damn natural to me. On a more amusing note, who do you think she was talking about when mentioning, “I don’t want to name names” … possibly Kim “Kat Face” Kardashian? That would be my first guess.
As far as Heidi talking about her marriage to Seal, eh. Of course she would change things that happened in the past, or she wouldn’t have just filed for divorce after word got out that she was probably banging Thomas Hayo. Then again, Seal is probably banging Delta Goodrem (who doesn’t look unlike Heidi) even though he insists that they’re just friends. Whatever.

So breast implants and multiple nose jobs don’t account as plastic surgery , k

I really don’t think she had breast implants… she always had big breasts (just google her pictures from the 90ies). But I definitely think she had some breast lifting done after having her kids… the nose… I don’t know, but it seems pretty original to me

She’s wearing a push-up bra there. Check out some of her bodypaint/see-through pics and you’ll see they are claerly real. Fake boobs don’t have that form and hang.

Those plastic surgery sites are ridiculous. They use completely different photos that demonstrate nothing, like the other poster said. Go to Youtube, check out her Sports Illustrated videos, see how her breats giggle, and you’ll see.

Yes, I’m also pretty sure that her breasts are real… if not she has had the best surgeon ever!

Her nose looks pretty much the same over the years. I mean there are photos over 20, 30 years and of course your face changes a bit in time.
Couldn’t it be that she just had a child in the second pic? She has not so much cleavage now, so maybe it was a natural change due to breast feeding.

She is about the only celebrity I believe about this stuff. She is typically too open about private issues; why would she lie?
I actually thought of Megan Fox as the young woman who has already had plastic surgery….

Of course she is no lie there. The fashion industry is run by gay men basically and the bottom line is that fashion looks best on flat in the chest and tall and rail thin girls who look like boys. But then I like Heidi and I find her to be one of the more truthful people out there and she really does have a brain and really does work hard. Unlike so many others that have no talent and yet so much publicity that we could all name here.

I like HK but it’s easier to be anti-surgery when you’re naturally beautiful!
And it’s beauty that open doors in a way that intelligence, personality and talent sadly never will. Still, if us “civilians” never have it, we can’t lose it, so that’s something!

I think it is a sad testament to our time that when Heidi speaks of young girls getting plastic surgery–at least 3 different names come to mind. The sad truth is that TOO many young starlets are paying for metric tons of face-jacking. It’s just sad.

I’m thinking she may have had a nose job back when she first started….and probably a tummy tuck after her last child- even supermodels don’t come back tight after 4 kids. Regardless, she’s so pretty- hopefully she won’t ever go the crazy eyed Cindy Crawford route.

I don’t think this is true. Depends on body type, pre pregnancy fitness and weight gain. I’m short but athletic and my tummy bounced back after three kids. And I know she took better care of herself than I did. And she’s tall.

Totally agree with Vic. Ive had 2 and mine went back just fine. Depends on what you did to yourself before and after the pregnancy.

Definitely agree–my sister is 35 has had 3 kids and her stomach is flat and she looks amazing.

I believe you on the nose, but wouldn’t a tummy tuck leave a big scar? Like Octomom or Kate Gosselin?
Her stomach doesn’t look tucked to me. It’s flat and toned, which is definitely possible after pregnancies, but not perfect.

I think if you take care of yourself while pregnant (not like Jessica Simpson) your body can bounce back like that.

She looks like Stacey Keibler, or the other way around rather. I never understood her super model status myself. Frankly, I’m glad to see this divorce bring her mood down a bit, she always acted to happy and like everything was too perfect, she just bugged me. Now I find her more relatable.

it is pretty sad that a stranger’s happiness makes you angry. i strive hard to be happy and would never get down on someone for finding a way to enjoy life. my best friend feels the same way about heidi. can’t stand her because she is happy. yet she loves me despite my happy go lucky attitude. i don’t get it. i guess i never will. try to lighten up and be happy for people. there is enough misery in this world without adding to it.

No no. See you are thinking that I am taking joy in her pain…never. I am trying to say that she is much more relatable, and in my eyes likeable now that she isn’t acting so fake about being in the perfect marriage with the perfect family. It obviously wasn’t perfect or they wouldn’t be splitting. Now her true self is coming through, and she isn’t able to pretend to be happy-go lucky Heidi. She still seems positive, but more real.

Really?! I am going with this list:

6) Laser hair removal

The boss of the Elite agency (whom she dated… and that’s how she launched her career) said about her that she was a very homely girl that he totally made over and put a lot of money on her “transformation” and he cited all the ones you cited plus chin and cheekbones surgery.
Before coming to the USA she was not very much known as a model in Europe but much more as a goldigger who went after way too older men for sucess, after the flavio briatore debacle and public humiliation she came to america for a fresh start, and it was when she begun judging other girls on their bodies sometimes really hardly in her show that the boss of Elite remind publicly that she was far far from cute to begin win.and she was not that much natural.
And now she continues with blabbing on surgery while being totally re-done!
Report this comment as spam or abuse
Doesn’t make sense. She already had a career when her fling with Briatore was over…plus her face looks pretty much the same, at least for me.
Report this comment as spam or abuse
ok. what was her career then? what was the labels she was the face for? any commercials? what runway did she had walked (it is very known into the industry that she had never walk the catwalk other than victoria secret)
She wasn’t known as a model at all! The briatore fuss (and dating him since it’s when she begun having connections and becoming a bit famous)gave her a lot of media attention.
For the face, it’s actually pre-fame, since her sugardaddy, the boss of Elite paid for the whole “extreme makeover” to his then girlfriend, go search the internet he was pretty vocal about it when “america next top model” begun.
another thing it is well known in the business that she is a good 5 years older than what she pretended, her career has begun in her thirties.
That’s why Karl Lagerfeld hates her so much, because to this part of fashion she is just no claudia!
Report this comment as spam or abuse
Yeah, I am too lazy to search when and how she was with Briatore (
), but she has had her Sports Illustrated-cover before and that was pretty much her breakthrough in the US. I am not denying she got more media attention because of the relationship.
Everybody knows she’s no runway-model, she pointed that out by herself. I never heard of somebody claiming he paid for her surgical makeover, but that doesn’t mean much – I can’t prove it wrong or right, but for me her face didn’t change that much…

I think she means young women getting lots of fillers and cheek implants, blowing their lips up, botox, totally altering their looks. Lindsay Lohan comes to mind, too young to be doing such nonsense.
I have had quite a few friends who got a nose job in their twenties. It just gave them a less severe look and made them happy. I don’t consider that anti-aging surgery or that there is anything wrong with it. A large nose overpowering a small face affects a woman’s self-esteem. My best friend wore a lot of eye makeup to offset the large nose that had bothered her since she was a kid. Once she got her nose job, she became more natural and carefree and really wore less makeup. She told me she wished she had done it at 18 instead of 26.

If she hasn’t had surgery just for plastic surgery’s sake, then she had a tummy tuck while being stitched up from a c-section, b/c her abs are tummy tuck abs. Maybe it doesn’t count in her world if it was part of her postpartum recovery.

She’s always had those wideset, boxy abs.

Darlene- having a c section and a tummy tuck at the same time is not a thing. No reputable surgeon would do it and if you find one who says he would then you should run far far away. Not saying she hasn’t had a tummy tuck, but there are multiple reasons why no one in their right mind would have a tummy tuck at the same time as a cesarean- mainly unreliable results Bc your body is so stretched out and bloated when you are pregnant.

By “young girls” I’m assuming she means 4-8 year olds?
Yes, it’s a pet peeve, but why do we insist on this kind of language?
Do we refer to 18 year old men as “young boys?” nope. Why would an 18 year old woman be referred to as a “young girl?”
(I chose 18 years, but have heard people refer to women well into their 20s as young girls as well).
I heard a guy the other day refer to Hilary Clinton as a “girl,” as in, “she could be our first girl president,” lol.
Just an aside, carry on.

How come someone can get away with telling such lies? No nose job? C’mon! She had also breast implants, for sure and just like Gisele Bundchen, she decided to get rid of them and replace them by smaller ones.

I think she’s full of shit.
I’m pretty sure she has had a nose job and I’m positive she’s had a boob job – at least! Her boobs are probably the saline ones that they place just right on women who have some boobs so they still have jiggle and are more real looking than bolt ons. Katy Perry is said to have the same sort.
I don’t think she’s done anything like face lifts or anyting because you can see the lines around her eyes which, in my opinion, make her look beautiful.
It is widely known that pretty much EVERYONE in Hollyweird/the entertainment business has had work done in one way or another, it pissed me off that celebs think that their fans are frickin’ idiots when they say they have never done anything!

She’s spoken about disliking botox/surgery before, & has age-appropriate crow’s-feet which do not at all impede her looks. I think it really is an aesthetic issue for her (sure is for me).
But the tons of staged Happy Marriage/Family/Hearts & Flowers photo-ops–that went on until the week they announced separation–were so gross–she has no credibility. Cannot bear people who wh0re out their private lives to build a public “brand.”
Alright; curious about 1 thing: does she take her kids to Karate classes like, 7 days a week?

I love it when gorgeous people come down on others for getting elective plastic surgery. I saw Rachel Weisz in the flesh once and she was one of the most beautiful and flawless looking women I’d ever seen, which reinforced my suspicions that she’s being a a total t-rd with her whole “anti plastic surgery” brigade. And now a friggen supermodel is telling people they don’t need it?
So long as it doesn’t create health issues, who gives a rat’s ass? It doesn’t make someone a bad person, it makes them a (potentially) bad looking person.
