    Super pay, super model hide show

    Her beauty recommended her for playing Ursula Andress in "The Life and Death of Peter Sellers". But which role fit her best? I guess it was the one in "The Devil Wears Prada", which was most close to what she does best: modeling.

    And it is not just an opinion, as in 2007, Forbes told the world what we already suspected: that Heidi is among the best paid super-models. Appearing on television shows, like "Spin City", or "Sex and the City", is beneficial for Heidi's career. She manages to stay in the spotlight, and she makes big money while doing it.

    The next Christie Brinkley! hide show

    I think she is very pretty and I think that she has the potential for being the next Christie Brinkley. As well as after having all of those kids, I think that she looks good and does a good job at staying thin as well as staying healthy in order to keep her day job! Can't believe that she can find time to work and still have a personal life as some have failed at that. But she is an amazing woman and I hope to see more of her in the not too distant future. She has an amazing future ahead of her if she does the right things and given the right selections.

    Heidi is a model who turns actress and show host hide show

    Heidi is such a great gal too bad all of her children by two differenrt men are ugly as **** I guess the saying was too that you really can not have everything because we can all she that she doesn't. But do not get me wrong I love her and her hit show Project Runway. I love watching the designers and models go at it evey week until Fashion Week. I wish they would show reruns of season three, that was by far my favorite season yet. The designers had so much personality this last season. And the models we hot too.

    Heidi Klum wow whats there to say about her she's amazing. She is my idol. She is an amazing model. She looks great. She's very talented. And I love love love her accent. My mom thinks she's cute. but she's older than me so I just think she's great at what she does. Her and Seal are a great couple. Heidi on Project Runway she's always wearing the best clothes. To me when I see her im thinking wow she has it all, the looks the money, the talent. she's not super skinny like Jessica Simpson and Nicole richie. she's the ideal weight for her age. Thats why I like her so much, shes happy to be who she is.
