Heidi Klum is the host of "Project Runway" and its companion series, "Models of the Runway."

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. Other ventures for Heidi Klum include best-selling European clothing, accessories, fragrance and beauty lines. Her charity involvements include work on behalf of such organizations as the American Red Cross (as part of its 'Celebrity Cabinet') and the Elizabeth Glazer Pediatric AIDS Foundation. Heidi Klum's website, heidiklum.com, is a destination for her many fans to keep up with her appearances and upcoming projects.

Heidi Klum made her acting debut appearing as Michael J. Fox's love interest in the ABC sitcom "Spin City" and has appeared in Miramax films "Blow Dry" and "Ella Enchanted." Heidi Klum has also appeared in guest roles on HBO movie "The Life and Death of Peter Sellers" as Ursula Andress; and on HBO's "Sex and the City," CBS's "CSI: Miami," FOX's "Malcolm in the Middle," and "The Larry Sanders Show," among others.

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 has been featured on the covers and spreads of every top fashion magazine, including Vogue, Elle, In Style, Marie Claire, Harper's Bazaar, Jane, ID, W, Cosmopolitan, Glamour, Mademoiselle, Allure, Esquire, GQ, British GQ (for which she was named "Woman of the Year" twice in a row) French & British & German Vogue, German Elle, Self, Fitness, Dutch, New Woman and Grazia magazines.

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. Since then, Heidi Klum has completed many campaigns for Victoria's Secret, being featured prominently in the company's world-famous catalogs and fashion shows. 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.

During downtime at shoots, Heidi Klum cultivates her creative talents — sketching ideas for her jewelry and shoe lines, as well as crafting unique home products and embroidered clothing and accessories. Heidi Klum's own paintings have appeared in national magazines.
