http://wonderwall.msn.com/tv/heidi-klum-an...r-1524593.story Heidi Klum's Halloween extravaganza happened Saturday night and Wonderwall nabbed Heidi and Seal for a little chat about Halloween and their brand new baby girl. As a woman three weeks out from her fourth baby, we had to ask the obvious question: How does she stay so impossibly fit? "I still have a little pouch," she claims. "It's tucked in today." Personally, I think she should have embraced the pouch (which is German for "pooch"), and gone as a kangaroo mom with her brood in tow. Maybe next year. But really, Heidi. Tell us your supermodel secrets. Pretty please? "I don't exercise too much," says Heidi. "I walk on the treadmill a little bit. I walk up and down the driveway. I'm very active with the children. When you have three children and two boys, they're very active but when you breast-feed and you eat right and you move around a little bit, that usually does the job" Huh. Moving around a little bit does the job, eh, Klum? We would hate you if you weren't speaking in an adorable German accent in a full-on crow's outfit. And should we expect a new beautiful bouncing baby next year? Might this be a Halloween tradition: Give birth and dress as a frightening animal? "No, that's it," she tells us. "I think four is a lot." So what inspired her creepy crow costume, anyway? "I thought about many different things," she says. "I said I want to be a black crow. My husband is a good sport so there he is in a black crow outfit." Seal would have felt a bit emasculated by the whole situation, until of course he caught a glimpse of Doug Reinhardt as the tooth fairy. Seal told us why he loves Heidi-ween as much as his wife. He says, "It's a chance for us to get out and have fun. As you can see she goes all out. She sets the tone. When they know she is going to commit to it then everyone really does. And Halloween is a very big part of American culture and we have four American children. That goes a lot into making it special for us." She also explains that she works with designer Martin Izquierdo for her costumes. She says, "He does all of the wings for Victoria's Secret. He does everything by hand. I said to him, 'This year I want to be a crow.' We drew sketches and I told him I want a beak and this and that. He did have different feet for me, like claw feet, but I couldn't walk in them. I said, 'Well, I just have to wear my Louboutins.'" Aside from the discomfort, probably smart not to run the risk of any unfortunate crow's feet jokes.

Thanks

Here are the pics from Heidi's Halloween party 2009:

Of course! Thanks for the thanks, by the way. I was beginning to think I wasted all that effort.

Also, here's the interview from the book (that I think was printed in Austrian MADONNA magazine last month)

I do not plan to translate this article, since almost all of the questions and answers are exactly the same as the previous interview. There is one question about Barbara Meier (from Germany's Next Top Model) and her red hair, one question about Heidi's natural hair color ("light brown, but I actually feel much better as a blond") and one question about how she got interested in modeling ("My friend convinced me to sign up for Model '92..."), a story we've all heard before.

Translation of this article MjAtaura posted: Heidi Klum Skin Close She is one of the most beloved personalities in Germany, her life seems to have become a true fairy tale, and with her charisma and power, she is a role model for many women. Heidi Klum tells FOR YOU her philosophy for success. Ms. Klum, your name stands for a show-business career "made in Germany". What is your formula for success? I believe, first and foremost, it is important that one should have fun in this job, but at the same time you should remain professional. That means discipline and the heart to train like a swine! That is the same no matter what time of day, under what circumstances and with whom you work: be in a good mood or at least do not give it away when you are not. Be punctual, friendly, uncomplicated, but be ready to hold out your elbows. That's what I say from fifteen years in the modeling business. You are an international media star, a model, commercial icon, TV show host, designer and mother. With all that you do, braving these complexities, how do you find a balance in life? I've said, I'll only do all of these things as long as I am having fun. Besides, I have the best team standing behind me that one could imagine: my family! They strengthen me in the back and support me very much. When one has such good fortune, so harmonic in life and work, it is astounding how much you can accomplish. Your body is often the foundation of your job. How much time do you invest in your fitness? I don't really have a schedule. Being fit comes with a healthy nutrition. Fish, white meat, lots of vegetables and fruit and renouncing carbohydrates. Of course, you sometimes indulge by eating pasta or sweets. Then on the next day, simply go easy on [the snacks]. I find it bad when people in my line of work confuse "being fit" with "being skinny". Only those who have a healthy attitude towards their body can last in this business. I achieve my fitness through jogging, training exercises and a lot of fresh air. Besides, I have three children who keep me fit. That is often just as tiring as a workout with my trainer, David Kirsch, who has looked after me for years. In which moments of your appointment-filled daily life can you really be yourself? That happens totally automatic as soon as my man, my children or my parents are with me. That is always taken care of in a family atmosphere in my private life. Sometimes we stay only at home, cook together, listen to music or simply rest. That is totally relaxing for us. I feel it is a pure luxury to have my family around me so often. What do you look like in private? Very much unstyled, as you would suppose. I don't put on very much make up in private and rely on styling from my trusty companions like daily creme, lip gloss, hairspray, jeans and a cute top - [and I'm] ready. I am very practical. At photo shoots or official events, I am styled from head to toe, which is naturally beautiful, but in private I am entirely casual. You are a celebrity in Germany and in the USA and your name in both cultures stands for big success. Is there a typical German look and a typical American look? I don't think so. I don't strive for either a typical German or American look, I've found my own personal look. I think the important thing is, the fait accompli, the naturalness that I have kept and, in the things that I do, I am authentic and feel comfortable. That is a language that everyone understands. You live in America and also in Germany. Where do you feel most comfortable? I feel just as comfortable in Germany as I do in the USA. I am at home in both countries. There is nowhere that I really feel out of place. When I get homesick, I fly back straight away. The long distance flight is very tiring, to be sure, but meanwhile, I already become tired and sleepy as soon as I step on the plane. Then, when the plane lands, I am well-rested! Would you please tell us one beauty trick? That is really not so bad. Love takes first place. Whoever loves and is loved, radiates happiness and beauty. I don't think that an unsatisfied or unfortunate person can really be beautiful. And when the exterior is right, you need a certain amount of charisma to really be beautiful. A real secret beauty trick, I don't have, but many little everyday things everyone should know. For example, drink a lot. Still water, fresh-squeezed juice, and not so much coffee. A must: get plenty of sleep! Finally, also one styling tip? The most important: the styling must hold and the hair must not be "frizzy" and it should shine! Sometimes I style my hair straight and smooth, other times curled. Naturally, it is important to me that my look keeps throughout the day, whether I am at a photo shoot, with my family, or invited to an evening gala. With the new Drei Wetter Taft products "Smooth & Glossy" and "Curlflex" then I am certain that my hair will look the way it should. From morning until night and sometimes even longer!

If you live in England, the issue is already out, and will soon be replaced with the December issue. My local store didn't get the October issue of British Esquire until two weeks ago, so it will be another two weeks until they get the November issue (that Heidi is in).

I see you were trying to post YouTube videos, but made a mistake. Here they are. If the link is : http:/www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ezi6Sbej60Q&feature=related for this site, you only keep the code after ?v= and before any of these: &, which in this case is [ yt]Ezi6Sbej60Q[/yt ] (Y)

Heidi is coming out with another line of clothing: http://www.wwd.com/footwear-news/heidi-klu...wn-line-2351716 Heidi Klum may soon be giving the contestants on “Project Runway” a little competition. The supermodel-turned-TV-star has teamed up with Modern Vintage and Majestic Mills co-founders Rick and Brian Cytrynbaum to create a pervasive lifestyle collection for the coming seasons. The yet-to-be-named line is set to launch for fall ’10 with a selection of footwear, Rick Cytrynbaum told Footwear News in an exclusive interview. He said it will later branch out to include activewear, dresses and swimwear. “[Heidi] has really established an amazing fashion direction,” Cytrynbaum said, noting that the supermodel has been instrumental in sketching and designing the line since its inception. “She’s amazing in what she does.” Footwear is expected to make its debut at the February shoe shows with about 48 styles ranging from sky-high stilettos to tall boots. “It’s the whole 'Heidi’s closet' concept,” said Cytrynbaum, who is still working with the team to determine price points. “It’s feminine with a bit of a fashion and rock 'n' roll edge.” Klum, who recently gave birth to daughter Lou, is also adding maternity clothing into the mix. That collection is set to hit stores in February.

Thanks!

Heidi's top ten Halloween costume ideas: http://lifestyle.msn.com/your-look/celebri...mentid=22332597 1. Sexy cat. You can make a cat costume yourself with a few things. Get a leotard and some fabric paint at places like Pearl Paint (www.pearlpaint.com) or Michaels (www.michaels.com). Then you can paint cat patterns right onto the leotard to make it more interesting. Buy a dog collar with a tag and put a fun message on it. For example, when I was a cat in 2007, I put "If lost, please return to Seal." You can also buy cat ears and a fake tail that can be attached with a few stitches or a safety pin. Add in some sexy high heels or boots. Really go for it and paint your face like a sexy city cat. Don't forget the whiskers! 2. Vampire. I love wearing fangs! Especially when they have blood dripping down them. If you really want good fangs, think ahead and ask your dentist if he can make you some. That's what I did and they fit your teeth perfectly! I take good care of them so I can wear them year after year. Also, play with changing your look. If you are blond, go and get a great black wig. You can find one at Bob Kelly Wigs in NYC (212.819.0030) or Ricky's (www.rickysnyc.com). It's good to invest in one amazing element of your costume. Wigs, especially, make a difference! It also helps you get into character. See Heidi in her full vampire costume > 3. Bumble Bee. I think someone who wears a bumble bee costume has a good sense of humor. Get a yellow and black striped shirt and tights and squeeze yourself into some black little hot pants. Since you're wearing tights, it's okay to go super short on the hot pants! Add some super high heels. Next, buy little yellow round bumble bee wings and get antennas with yellow balls that bounce around when you move. Get super long black fake lashes and start your makeup early enough so you have time to put them on! It's not easy even for me! When you put the glue on the strip of lashes, let the glue dry a bit. When you do that and place them on your lash line, they don't slide around as much and will place easier. Maybe add some sparkles around your eyes. I'm always about great makeup and sparkles -- they make the look fun and special. 4. Bride of Frankenstein. Make sure you don't look like a real bride because that's boring! Plus, it will scare of some guys! You can singe the veil a little bit and rip the dress so you really look like you come from the dead. Make it look old and dirty with some black, brown and grey paint. Stay pretty but a bit scary and white in the face. Put on lots of lashes and mascara! When you're adding the mascara and it's still wet, blink your eyes really hard so you smudge it all around your eyes. It's really effective! It's also cool to add some grey or white contact lenses that you can get at Ricky's or a costume shop. You can find amazing dresses and veils at thrift shops. The amazing thing about creating your own costume is that you can be sure no one else has the same! 5. Angel. I have seen some really great Victoria's Secret Angel costumes over the years! If you feel good in your body and want to show it off, GO FOR IT! Lingerie, wings and long angelic hair make the look. And don't forget the heels! Get body glimmer for your entire body. Wear lots of lashes and add fairy dust around your eyes and on top of your cheeks. 6. Superhero (Wonder Woman). This costume you can find at most Halloween stores but you can make it your own a bit by getting a really great wig. I always like getting a wig that's opposite of my hair color because it really throws people off. Great makeup and a major push-up bra work. Maybe even an extra push-up so you have the Wonder Woman curves! 7. Spray Painted Body Art. My friend David Kirsch does this every year. He's been a leopard, Captain America and Spiderman. Peter Brown (917.723.8070), who is based in New York City, hand paints every inch of his body! It's a tough one to pull off and could be a little chilly in October, but when done right, it's spectacular. And let's hope it doesn't rain! 8. Police Officer. My husband surprised me a few years ago at my Halloween party by 'raiding' the place and restoring order. There's something about a man in a uniform. To be really in character, you have to get all the fun knick knacks a cop has. Hand cuffs are super important for that! 9. Flapper. A flapper costume is totally classic and yes, it's period, but it can also have a cool modern flavor to it. The best thing to do here is go to a thrift store and find a dress. It's amazing what you can find there. Make a fun headband from a chain. You can wear a wig or put your hair up in rollers for a curly look. Get some fishnet stalking and super high heels to finish off the look! 10. Clown. Pink came to my party last year and had on an amazing clown costume. The good thing about a clown is that you can mix and match and be creative. Wear a fun tutu from the thrift shop with a colorful blazer. Even better if you can find one with sequins! Have a fun color, polka dot or flower bra under it that can peek out a bit. Then go for it with your face! You can paint stars and hearts in all different colors. Definitely don't forget to wear the red afro and red nose! Basically, my one piece of advice is: really go for it!

New to me, too!

That does not look like Heidi, and it does not look like Heidi's handwriting. (N)
