Sexiness
Heidi Klum definitely raises the temperature in any room she enters. Though her perky personality adds a quirk to her sex appeal, it doesn't stop her from being one of the sexiest women in the world.

Just watching her confident strut and her magnificent hips sway as she walks down the runway in Victoria's Secret lingerie elicits X-rated thoughts. Although Heidi Klum is a runway model, she doesn't have a twiggy, anorexic figure; rather, she has voluptuous curves and lines in all the right places. Heidi Klum's piercing hazel eyes are all business when she's on the runway, but when she's working the talk-show circuit, they become warm and inviting

Heidi Klum Quotes
“Going blonde is like buying yourself a light bulb!”

"You have to work out to be sexy. People always ask me how I stay in shape and how do I do it, and what really makes me do it is because I have a hot man waiting at home for me, so I don't want to be a slouch bag; I have to keep up appearances."

"Sometimes I lie in bed and I'm like, 'Oh my god, there's Seal lying next to me. What's he doing there?' I get a smile on my face immediately. Our honeymoon period is definitely not over...I want to look good for him, so I kind of stepped it up a bit."

"I like to hang out with my friends and my family. I love to cook and I like to go swimming in the pool. I like to go to the park and feed the ducks."

"I represent more the healthy, happy, curvy, strong woman. And that sounds much healthier to me than being 80 pounds and skinny as a bean."

"I love beautiful clothes when I'm on the red carpet or out with my husband, but when I'm with the kids or at home, I'm not looking for the newest trend. I'm all about comfort."

"You should spend your money on some nice lingerie. Big wool cotton pants, that just doesn't work. You have to feel sexy."

"A lot of people come to me and they're like, 'Will I look like you after I have the baby?' And I say, 'Well, how were you before?' You can't kid yourself."

- Heidi Klum

Klum was persuaded by a friend to enroll in a national modeling contest called "Model 92". Out of 25,000 contestants, Klum was voted the winner on April 29, 1992 and offered a modeling contract worth US$300,000 by Thomas Zeumer, CEO of Metropolitan Models New York. As the winner, she appeared on the Gottschalk Late Night Show, a top German television show with host Thomas Gottschalk. She accepted the contract a few months later after graduating from school and decided not to try for an apprentice position at a fashion design school.

Klum has been on the cover of fashion magazines, including Vogue, ELLE and Marie Claire. She became known after appearing on the cover of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue and for her work with Victoria's Secret as an "Angel." In addition to working with world class photographers on her Sports Illustrated shoots, she was the object and subject of Joanne Gair body painting works in several editions from 1999 to 2006. She wrote the foreword to Gair's most recent book of body paint work. She was a spokesmodel for McDonald's, Braun, H & M, and Liz Claiborne, among others. She is currently a celebrity spokesmodel for Jordache and Volkswagen. In addition to modeling, she has appeared in several TV shows, including Spin City, Sex and the City, Yes, Dear, and How I Met Your Mother. She had a role as an ill-tempered hair model in the movie Blow Dry, played a giantess in the movie Ella Enchanted and was cast as Ursula Andress in The Life and Death of Peter Sellers. She had cameo appearances in The Devil Wears Prada and Perfect Stranger.

In July 2007, having earned $8 million in the previous 12 months, Klum was named by Forbes as third on the list of the World's 15 Top-Earning Supermodels.
