Heidi Klum’s bikini body: healthy, sexy or too skinny?

fp_7741868_lib_klum_heidi_16_34

Yesterday, some sites carried topless photos of Heidi Klum, who was photographed on her family vacation in Porto Cervo, Sardinia. Heidi was just hanging out topless with her kids on a public beach, and it looked like fun, although I’m sure there are some people who are like, “Topless?!?” But as CB always says, Germans are basically nudists. Anyway, we didn’t carry the photos, although we had access to those pics, just because we‘re trying not to be so nipple-friendly these days. I’d be lying if I said I didn’t check out the state of Heidi’s boobs and body after giving birth to four kids (it’s four, right?). You can too, if you like looking at boobs – go here.

Anyway, here are some more photos from Heidi’s vacation – for the rest of the time, Heidi wore a bikini top. I think people critical of Heidi should keep in mind several things: one, she’s given birth to four kids; two, she’s not being air-brushed and Photoshopped in these pics; three, she’s not wearing heels, which really does make your body look different; and four, she eats. So, with all of that being said and then some, I think Heidi looks great. She looks like what she is – a runner who eats, who has good genes and takes care of herself.

By the way, have you guys been watching Project Runway’s new season? I haven’t. I’ve made a conscious decision to stop watching, and to change the channel when it’s on. I’m not going through another debacle like last season. Anyway, Lifetime is going to be doing a “Project Runway All Stars” with some of the best, fan-favorite designers returning to compete against other fan-favorites from other seasons. Heidi is not going to host! Angela Lindvall is going to be the hostess. Heidi tweeted, “To all my Runway fans, I didn’t do All Stars because our original team of Tim, Michael & Nina was not complete. There is no other reason. To follow-up on my last post, many people have been asking about Project Runway All Stars and I just wanted to set the record straight.”

    She looks great – love Heidi Klum!

  2. dorothy says:

    I think she looks fine. Always beautiful, always smiling and always with her family.

  3. Seal Team 6 says:

    She looks terrific.

  4. Cherry Rose says:

    I think she looks pretty damn good after having four kids. Her legs are killer.

    Her daughter is so adorable.

  5. Jessica says:

    Healthy! She looks phenomenal.

  6. Diane says:

    She looks fantastic.

  7. Maripily123 says:

    I think Heidi looks fantastic. I just don’t think any of those bikinis are flattering to her. Is that her littlest daughter? Is she that big already? She’s too adorable!

  8. Samigirl says:

    Her body is awesome. Good for her 🙂

  9. Saskia says:

    I think she looks stunning. Giving birth to FOUR children is some hardcore, repetitive trauma to put a body through, and hers looks amazing. She’s not totally flawless, but that makes me like her even more. She’s beautiful while still looking natural, like a real live human being instead of some creepy sack of silicone and fillers that’s been vacuumed and tightened to hell and back.

  10. Bee says:

    UG! Let me just vent and say that this bitch is still smoking hot after so many babies and I am completely and totally eaten up with jealousy right now. I wish I looked that good after having my two babies…. Life is so unfair!!!!!

  11. brin says:

    I agree, she looks great!

    • Melissa says:

      Don’t be so gullible she had a tummy tuck. There are a few surgeons who will do tummy tucks that leave barely any scaring at all. She got the money and she can afford it just compare her tummy before she had kids and now and you ll see the difference

  12. katy says:

    Agree with you on all counts Kaiser. She is an amazing looking woman. And her kids are just too adorable! Seriously, her daughter could not be any cuter!!!

  13. tapioca says:

    Her daughter is cute.

    I love Heidi and I think she’s still in fabulous shape for a 37-year old mother of FOUR, especially around the midsection, which can really suffer!

    Maybe she’s no longer in her heyday, but should I ever have kids I’m going to end up looking like Jabba the Hutt in comparison, and her figure is at least somewhat achievable for anyone with good diet & exercise, unlike Candice Swanepoel who manages to be bizarrely both skeletal & curvy.

  14. Eve says:

    I’ve always thought her midsection was sort of strange (her chest is narrower than her hips). But overall I think she looks great — regardless the fact she’s had four kids. She’s fit and toned, plus Klum has never been a super skinny model anyway.

    EDIT (@ Tapioca):

    We both mentioned her midsection (different takes though) but it was purely coincidental. My comment came up (awaiting moderation, actually) right after yours.

  15. Quest says:

    Heidi looks great…after having 4 kids…just amazing and naturally beautiful

  16. crtb says:

    This is the only site showing her in a bathing suit. All of the other sites are showing her topless. I have to say she looks much better covered up than without a top. Also on the other sites, you can see a tummy tuck scar. Regardless, I think she looks great considering she has had four kids and is in her 40’s.

  17. lrm says:

    i just wish some women would wear one pieces once in a while-it’s like a competition for ‘bikini bodies’-i LOVE one pieces-i am size 6 but very fair skinned and i think one piece is better for my skin coloring and body type…
    oh i have a sister in law who had 4 kids [i’m in so cal] and i think her body is even hotter than heidi’s w/o having nannies or much money at all, unlike celebs-but heidi looks darn good, too. just sayin’ while she is a busy mom, she does have resources that most don’t and therefore the opportunity to look that good.
    oh, i agree, though, the no plastic surgery look is refreshing! hooray hope it’s a trend.

  18. aenflex says:

    She looks great and anyone who says otherwise might be a teensy bit jealous?

  19. Grandizer says:

    I would worship at the altar that is Heidi Klum.

    If she had a more prominent butt, I would pledge my life to her every word!

    🙂

    But seriously, she is one of the most down to earth and REAL people you hear about that has OODLES of money. She has never seemed to be pretentious or snobby. She has a real life with kids and Seal, and YES she has a nanny, but with 2 ACTIVE parents with all that is part of their JOBS, I do not have a single problem with that.

    You go GIRL!

  20. Grandizer says:

    And to the one piece requesting person…

    I could see Heidi doing a Bo Derek bathing suit with her hair in braids…

    In fact it is so “seeable” in my head I think she might have done such.

    Google image search coming up!

  21. Phin says:

    I never noticed her tattoo before. Like the fact it says “Seal” but in a really subtle way.

    I think she looks pretty hot still, too, but she certainly doesn’t want to lose any more weight than that.

  22. Rosanna says:

    She looks great and Lou looks adorable

  23. Lila says:

    She looks good. Definitely not to skinny: There aren’t visible ribs, her legs aren’t twigs, and collar bones aren’t protruding. Plus her normal body makes a pretty good argument that those VS bras really do add some oomph!

  24. tango says:

    I think Heidi looks great. And her daughter is adorable.

  25. Moops says:

    She looks the same weight as always – she just isn’t 25 anymore. The only parts of her that aren’t “model-perfect” anymore are her tummy and boobs. And that, my friends, is what age + kids do to you. I love Heidi for the fact she doesn’t try to fight it.

  26. zesty says:

    I’ve never seen Project Runway, but she seems to always have such a wonderful attitude about life, her kids, her husband…it makes me like her. And she looks fantastic.

  27. velourazure says:

    is it humanly possible to have 4 kids and have your stomach look like that without surgery?

  28. hstl1 says:

    Whoever did her tummy tuck should be out of a job. It looks so weird!

  29. XYZ says:

    @Grandizer

    “with 2 ACTIVE parents with all that is part of their JOBS, I do not have a single problem with that.”

    Yeah, who are you again and how does your existence matter to her that you felt the need to state you do not have a problem with her having a nanny? You sound like a douchette

  30. Aviatrix says:

    Healthy. I wish that she picked more flattering cuts for a bikini. The sides of the bottoms need to be thicker with just a smidge more coverage in the back. Also a halter top wouldn’t kill her to perk up the girls.

  31. becky says:

    @ EVE

    ok first of all i love your avatar

    also – yeah her midsection i SO weird, always has been – i never got why VS’s hired her in the first place. she’s always been skinny fat, and although shes looks healthy since there’s nothing she can do about that except lipo, which is I find too big of a risk for a mom to take (for anyone, actually).

    And i totally agree with everyone who wants to bring the one piece back – unfortunately in brazil thats never making a comeback. they’re so elegant for girls with perfect and not so perfect bodies.

    Michelle Pfeiffer in Scarface anyone??? That was SEXY

  32. phlyfiremama says:

    Yayyy for women with REAL bodies! It is long since time Americans got over their own unhealthy body issues about nudity being equal to sex. It isn’t the same thing at all~its JUST a naked body, nothing threatening or wrong. Heidi looks great, I’m glad to see someone who ISN’T perfect not afraid to have pictures taken & worrying about how she looks.

  33. Embee says:

    She looks healthy and better yet HAPPY to me, so she’s gorgeous IMO. I think a one-piece would flatter her impressive figure better. Something with high-cut legs and a V or U neck to broaden/balance the width of her chest with her hips. But she seems comfortable as is so more power to her!

  34. Hootie Hoo says:

    She looks fantastic!

  35. Eve says:

    @ Becky:

    I love my avatar too! New York’s hottest club is Booooooooof! (yes, with nine “Os”). I love Stefon (and Bill Hader, obviously).

    I think her body looks good anyway…but I never thought she had a curvatious one (like some other models that have the hourglass figure even though they’re really skinny). The model from Victoria’s Secret with the best body is Miranda Kerr, in my opinion.

  36. Trillion says:

    …and she walks around with a beer in her hand. Win.

  37. Joan says:

    I think she looks great! She perhaps seems thinner than before simply because she is more toned and in shape.
    Bless her for being natural and going topless. Her breasts looks fantastic, especially after breastfeeding 4 kids!

  38. Truthful says:

    she looks great!

    and NO, I am no longer watching Project Runway..I can’t with them anymore.

  39. Leticia says:

    She is beautiful and her legs are absolutely perfect.

    Does breast feeding make your breasts smaller afterwards? I’m genuinely curious, not being critical. Yesterday the photos of Salma Hayek and todays photos of Klum make me wonder why they seem a bit smaller chested now. This is not a criticism, because they are gorgeous women. I’m just wondering if they wore padded bras before or something.

  40. TXCinderella says:

    She is not too thin, just really fit. You can tell she’s been hitting the gym and good for her! She looks great for the age that she is and having four kids!

  41. Skinnybetch says:

    I think she looks amazing & she has four kids! All those moms who have trouble losing their baby weight must hate her!

  42. Joan says:

    @ Leticia – I think it depends on each woman how their breasts look after breastfeeding. On the whole, however, it is known that breastfeeding makes your breasts more saggy and warp the nipple a bit (from the constant suckling and those *ouch* sometimes bites/yanks).
    Heidi had very round, perky breasts before she had her kids and are noticeably smaller than before, when she did her Victoria’s Secret modelling. Also, though, she is more fit/toned than in those days, which can also attribute to a loss in her naturally round/full breasts.
    Breastfeeding is a marvelous thing but your breasts can definitely feel like a war zone afterwards. :/

  43. Lucinda says:

    She looks amazing but she has hit the age where the right one piece would look so much hotter than any bikini.

  44. Viv says:

    Awesome back-gold bikini. Looks good. She is not super popular in Germany, her show Germany’s Next TopModel gets slammed quite a bit in the press. Lou is really cute!

  45. Leticia says:

    @Joan, thanks for the input. I’ve always wondered.

  46. Blue says:

    She looks great kids or no kids. Her midsection does look odd.

  47. Amanda G says:

    Didn’t she used to have big breasts? For a model her posture is horrible.

  48. Erin says:

    I like Heidi Klum and think she is very pretty and quite obviously can keep weight off as well. However, ladies, this is not what a normal woman will look like after 4 babies. She has had tummy tucks, probably after every pregnancy, so don’t think you can acheive these results for loose skin with just exercise.

  49. Jayna says:

    She had four babies almost back to back and looks fantastic. Heidi had amazing big boobs but lost most over chest by the third or fourth child, but they’re stll nicely shaped from the link posted. My friend was naturally big busted too and slender like Heidi, but after child number one they went down too but hanging and like pancakes. Heidi is still perky. Heidi has stunning legs. When she and seal performed together on Victoria secret show she had on a mini and I was jealous.

  50. Goofpuff says:

    She looks great. It doesn’t look like a tummy tuck scar. It looks like what happens when you birth a bunch of babies and get extra skin, and then don’t have fat behind it. Just flappy. I have the same 🙁

  51. anti says:

    she looks fine and healthy, plus not super veiny like some thin celebrities.

  52. Jennifer says:

    i checked out the nudie pics and her boobs look *great*. shoot. the bikini tops do *not* do them justice. maybe she did get a tummy tuck but i have known two moms of five kids each, with a small waist and flat belly – some women are crazy lucky. they had no surgery. neither one had very noticeable stretch marks either. also they were both workout feinds. i can imagine heidi doing crunches til the cows came home after her babies were born, because her looks are her money maker. i like her because she seems beautiful inside and out. 🙂 her baby lou is SO sweet ! adorable family.

  53. Becky says:

    I think she looks great. She must have gotten her stretch marks lasered off, though-I can’t believe she had 4 kids with no visible stretch marks. I also wouldn’t be shocked if she had a tummy tuck. How do these women have kids and still have stomachs that flat? It’s one thing if you have a baby in your teens or early twenties but most women who have kids in their thirties have little “pooches” even if they are thin.

  54. Camille says:

    Meh, she does nothing for me (then again I am straight lol).

    Also, I hate that arm tattoo she has, its ugly.

  55. Dhavy says:

    @ Becky

    My mom had four kids and she had no stretch marks, I think it’s all about good skin (and genes)

    Heidi looks great and I can’t think of any person ever saying something bad about her

  56. Happy21 says:

    She looks pretty good considering how many kids she’s given birth too. But I think her bod looks better from the waist down. I do not find it attractive when you can see the definition of a woman’s hips like that. Like the indentation. She looks a little bony up top but her arse looks smokin and so does her face!

  57. JennJenn says:

    Too skinny? Hardly. Her waist and hips look normal for a tall woman who’s always been lean. She looks thinner than when she was a model because her funbags are gone.

  58. Rachel() says:

    Where are her breasts?

  59. blouson says:

    I have three kids all close together in age in my mid to late 30s. I have no stretch marks and no tummy bulge and have never worked out in my life and am under 50kg. Its all in the genes sadly. I envy Heidi’s long legs though being a midgit myself.

  60. Kosmos says:

    She looks very authentic. I love it when women do not do implants…most women do not need them, or need to go so huge. Congrats to Heidi on looking like a real woman!! I hope the implants go out of style one day and it becomes fashionable for women to have what they were born with.

  61. palermo says:

    I can never get past her botched nosejob, it is just not attractive

  62. Scorp says:

    She had her breast implants removed. They were her moneymakers w VS. Now she has already established herself as a TV personality w PR and she doesn’t need the fun bags anymore, good for her. Maybe it came up on the 10 year silicone re-up and she just said f*$! it. Good for her.

  63. Valerie Grossi says:

    Her legs are fantastic. I don’t think I like her belly and backside though, but she has had four (4) kids. She looks good for her age. She would look hotter in a one peace swimming suit though.

  64. You can definitely see your expertise in the paintings you write. The arena hopes for even more passionate writers like you who are not afraid to mention how they believe. All the time follow your heart.

  65. I am no longer positive the place you are getting your info, but good topic. I needs to spend a while studying much more or working out more. Thank you for great information I was looking for this info for my mission.

  66. I am extremely inspired together with your writing skills as well as with the format for your blog. Is this a paid theme or did you customize it yourself? Anyway stay up the excellent high quality writing, it is rare to see a nice blog like this one nowadays..
