Heidi Klum Biography
Heidi Klum was born in Berisch Gladbach, Germany, January 1, 1973.
Heidi's father worked for a cosmetics company and her mother was a hairdresser. You could say her career was almost destiny.
An 18 year old Heidi saw an ad in "Petra" magazine for a model competition which her friend encouraged her to enter and from that moment on she has never looked back as she immediately signed a contract with a Metropolitan modeling agency.
Heidi modelled for Finesse, Givenchy's Amerige and Gerry Weber as well as making the covers of Cosmopolitan, Self and Glamour but she really hit it big by winning the Victoria's Secret advertising campaign. As a Victoria's Secret Angel, Heidi made the transition from model to supermodel, joining the ranks of Yasmeen Ghauri, Tyra Banks, Helena Christensen, Alek Wek, Adriana Lima, and Naomi Campbell.
Heidi is married to hairstylist Ric Pipino and they have a baby girl. The German catwalk beauty, 30, welcomed 3.6-kilogram (eight-pound) LENI into the world in New York in April 2004.
