famous people


Heidi Klum, a supermodel, actress, TV presenter, fashion designer, television producer, and singer was born on the first of June, 1973, in Bergisch Gladbach, Germany.

Until the age of 18, when she won a televised modelling contest hosted by Thomas Gottschalk, Heidi Klum had been a "normal" girl. After she had finished school, Klum accepted the modelling contrat she had won and worked fleetingly as a model touring Europe before moving permanently to the USA. There she carried out modelling jobs with little success, but she didn't falter under the pressure of not making it immediately.

Finally, her time came. In 1998 she appeared on the cover of the "Sports Illustrated Swimsuit" and she has been in the limelight ever since.

First of all, Klum tried acting out an appeared on screen in the 1998 feature film "54" , the comedy "Blow Dry", the ABC hit sitcom "Spin City", "Sex and the City", "The Webber Show" and "Malcolm in the Middle."

Then, she hosted her own reality TV show "Project Runway." The show was a contest for 12 would-be fashion designers to win a contract as the clothes designer for "Banana Republic." This show was nominated for an Emmy.

More recent, she is hosting the show "Germany's Next Top Model" where 17 budding models are fighting to win a modelling contract with IMG. Klum is also the face of numberless companies like McDonald's or Birkenstock.

Finally, let me finish the biography of this amazingly beautiful woman with a quote of hers:

"I'm very lucky. I get a lot of roles because of my name as a model and I probably wouldn't have got them without it. You have to make the best of your situation."
