Quote:
“I'm a very private person. I like staying home and doing my stuff. I hate people invading on my privacy. I hate talking about my private life. You almost feel like they're invading your space, you know? I really hate that. I think that's very disrespectful and I think they should have a law against that.”
Early Life and Career
Gisele Caroline Bündchen was born on the 20th of July 1980 in in Horizontina, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. She is a Brazilian model who is the highest-paid model in the world and also the sixteenth richest woman in the entertainment world, having earned $33 million in 2007 and $35 million in 2008 alone, adding to her estimated $150 million fortune according to Forbes. She is also listed on Guinness Book of World Records as the world's richest supermodel. Bündchen has been the face of more than 20 brands internationally, and has appeared on more magazine covers than any other supermodel. A natural phenomenon, Gisele stands tall at 5'11", with dark blue eyes, a freckled face and wavy brown hair. The road to becoming today's most sought-after model came by chance for Gisele, after she was spotted by an Elite Modeling Agency agent while eating a Big Mac at a Sao Paulo McDonald's with her friends at the age of 14.
Despite her father's disagreement with her career choice, Gisele moved to the city. In 1995, she entered the "Elite Look Modeling Competition", and her career has taken off ever since. Gisele has since been in campaigns for major fashion houses such as Ralph Lauren, Dolce & Gabbana, Versace, Valentino, Celine, Gianfranco Ferre, and Chloe. Gisele left the Elite Modeling Agency and switched to IMG Model Management not long ago, which was considered to have been a controversial act. Her Brazilian agent is presently Monica Monteiro. Surprisingly, Gisele is a big fan of sweet popcorn, candy and McDonald's sundaes, a vice that does not show on her more than statuesque figure. It is for this figure that Vogue credited Gisele's work in the fashion industry as "The Return of the Sexy Model," as her physique marks the end of the waif-look that Kate Moss made so famous. Nonetheless, Gisele's chest size has been questioned, but she denies to have had implants. Real or not, Gisele adamantly refuses to ever fully reveal her breasts, whether for a fashion show or for a pictorial. One thing is for sure: the only thing fake about her body is her belly-button piercing and the tattoo she has on the inside of her left wrist.
