Heidi Klum
Heidi Klum is a German-American fashion model, television presenter, and producer born on June 1, 1973, in Bergisch Gladbach, Germany.
Klum holds dual citizenship in both Germany and the United States, a background that has carried across her work in both countries. She has worked in English and German throughout her career, reflecting that transatlantic reach. In addition to modeling and presenting, she has taken on roles as a film actor, entrepreneur, musician, singer, and children's writer, covering a notably wide range of professional activities.
On the television side, Klum has worked as both a presenter and a producer. That combination brought recognition in the form of a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Host for a Reality or Reality-Competition Program, one of the more prominent honors she has received. She has also been recognized with the Bambi Award, the Bavarian TV Award, and the Great Immigrants Award, the last of which connects directly to her journey from Germany to the United States.
Klum's work spans fashion modeling, screen acting, entrepreneurship, and television production, with a consistent thread running through the entertainment and fashion industries across two countries and two languages.
Quotes by Heidi Klum
Heidi Klum's insights on:
I never went to a modeling school, and I don't suggest to anybody that they go to a modeling school... In fashion, one day you're in, the next you're out.
I think you always need to try your best, but at the same time you can only do what you can do, and you don't need to beat yourself up about it.
I am not that person who walks in a room with my nose in the sky. I smile at people when I meet them, and I like photos of me when I’m smiling because they show my personality. I am always trying to have fun.
I like doing small parts, because I don’t feel I’m that practised in acting. It’s like making baby steps towards a bigger goal.
I need my products to work and be fast! I don’t love having 50 different things in my bathroom, like a different cream for every inch of my face. That’s so not me.
