Heidi Klum is a star of the fashion world. Having established herself as a top model, making great impact for such clients as Victoria's Secret and on the covers of such pop-culture mainstays as the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue, Heidi Klum's career has taken many new directions.

Heidi Klum's numerous other ventures include self-designed collections for such prestigious companies as fine jeweler Mouawad and popular shoe line Birkenstock. Heidi Klum is the host and executive producer of Bravo's Emmy-nominated series "Project Runway," called "the Prada of reality shows" by The New York Times. "Project Runway" is among the highest rated series on Bravo. Heidi Klum also hosts a German version of Top Model. Heidi Klum has a lifestyle book, "Body of Knowledge: 8 Rules of Model Behavior," released in 2004 through Crown Publishing, recently out in paperback.

Heidi Klum appeared as villainess scientist Katya Nadanova in the best-selling James Bond 007 videogame, "Everything or Nothing."

Heidi Klum's modeling career began in her hometown of Bergisch Gladbach, Germany when she and a friend cut a modeling contest coupon out of Petra magazine and mailed in a vacation snapshot of Heidi. Heidi Klum had no idea how far it would go, but she eventually won the contest. From this win, Heidi Klum signed with an agency and her modeling career officially began. Heidi Klum has since worked with such top photographers as Sante D'Orazio, Patrick Demarchelier, Gilles Bensimon, Rankin, Matthew Ralston, Arthur Elgort, Walter Chin, Robert Erdmann, Marco Glaviano, Michael Thompson, Raymond Meier, Richard Burbridge, Mark Seliger, Wayne Mazur, Peter Lindbergh and Steven Meisel.

Heidi Klum is also well known for her work with Victoria's Secret — one of her first big 'breaks' as a model was to walk in Victoria's Secret widely-watched runway show.

Heidi Klum was chosen to wear the $10 million jeweled Millennium Bra, as well as the jeweled Fantasy Bra in 2001 and 2003; and she has been featured on the cover of the Victoria's Secret Swim Book.
