http://www.looktothestars.org/news/2591-jo...dy-club-tonight Comedian Jon Lovitz is set to open his highly anticipated comedy club in California tonight, May 28, with proceeds to go to charity. The grand opening of the Jon Lovitz Comedy Club at the Universal CityWalk will attract a host of stars, including Heidi Klum, Seal, Dana Carvey, Christina Ricci, Lisa Kudrow, Daryl Hannah, John Stamos, Tia Carrere, Gilles Marini, Scott Foley, Paul Reubens, Kristi Yamaguchi, Brooke Burke, Ed O’Neill, Krista Allen, Gary Marshall and supermodels of the co-sponsoring Next Models agency. The opening will benefit the Ovarian Cancer Research Fund, a non-profit organization committed to funding research to find a method of early detection and ultimately a cure for ovarian cancer. The new 400 seat club will have a beach theme, and will offer two shows a night, drawing upon the wide range of headline comics Lovitz has worked with.

Great article!

Heidi and Seal's Fun Marriage Seal thinks fun is the key to the success of his and Heidi Klum's marriage. The singer, who recently renewed his wedding vows to model Heidi, said: "One of the things I love so much about my wife and my relationship to her is that we have a lot of fun. "People often ask me, they say 'oh you two are so romantic' and 'what are the keys to romance?' - we don't really try and be romantic." He continued: "But what we do try and do is to keep everything fun, and I think in a funny way therein lies the key to romance, is the ability to always laugh and to find different ways of entertaining each other." Seal said the renewal of vows make you think about why you got married. "Not that it's easy to forget with my wife because she's so delicious," he joked. The couple, who are expecting their fourth child, chose 'white trash' as the novelty theme for the ceremony. Seal said: "We had a lot of fun with (it). It's something we both looked forward to. We were gonna do it in Mexico but for obvious reasons we had to relocate as it were. It was fun. "This year we got married by Elvis and that was funny. Instead of saying 'I do', he went 'say after me, do you take this woman to be your lawful wedded wife, uh huh huh?' and so it was a bit ridiculous. But that's what we said instead of 'I do'." http://www.metro.co.uk/fame/article.html?S...mp;in_a_source= If you follow the link you can watch a video of Seal saying the quotes above!

I posted my higher quality scans of these already: (Y) http://www.bellazon.com/main/index.php?s=&...t&p=1654002

here ist video http://www.zdf.de/ZDFmediathek/content/762602?inPopup=true What is the gist of the interview for us non german folks? ANd thanks to everyone for all the updates. It seems all these Heidi fans have come out of the work. Its like Sanja is back. She talks too fast for me. If I had it written down, I could follow what she is saying easier. At one point, I think she says it is tough finding clothes that fit but she is not going to use her pregnancy as an excuse to stop working.

These were new to me too:

Anyone know when/where these pics were taken? They were certainly taken while she was still a brunette, which means they're at least 7 years old, but I never saw them before.

That's because MjAtaura is guilty of hotlinking, which is a no-no.

More from the finale:

Uh oh, I may have misspelled her name. I've seen it reported as "Sarah", but according to the official GNTM website, it's "Sara". A nice mod may have to correct my mistake.

The 19-year-old beauty from Munich became Heidi’s latest prodigy after winning the fourth series of the supermodel’s hit show. Heidi said: “We saw a special sparkle in Sara’s eye. She has a super body, a great character and presence – and is also nice!” Ecstatic Sara told BILD: “I can’t believe it – so often during the show I thought I would not make it.” Sara’s parents, who were born in Ethiopia, were visibly proud of their daughter who saw off 21,000 applicants to win the title after three months on the show. Sara Nuru will now not only enjoy fame with a cover picture on Germany’s ‘Cosmopolitan’ magazine, but will also be rich after scooping a new car and contracts with C&A and Maybelline Jade worth a whopping 200,000 Euros. But whether victory on the show will be enough to kick-start an international career remains to be seen.

a few difficult scans I made from Heidi's book Body of Knowledge (these pics are pretty small in the book and it's tough to enlarge them good)

Heidi Klum's New Crush http://indianautosblog.com/2009/05/heidi-k...volkswagen-polo German model Heidi Klum, is said to be very choosy when it comes to cars. She has done a few photograph sessions with VW’s Tiguan, Eos Coupe, and Scirocco for their respective catalogs, but never has really associated herself to these cars. Now though, she claims to have developed a liking for the New VW Polo after Volkswagen has introduced something called ‘Campaign communication’. Heidi Klum was seen strolling near the Costa Smeralda in Sardinia in order to drive the new Volkswagen Polo. Despite not being given a chance to drive the car, she complemented the Polo as “the best of all time, cost effective, sexy short, the ideal car” After her photo shoot with the car, she began to rave and rant about the Polo, particularly the BlueMotion feature that would return an average consumption of 3.8 L/100 km [that's 62 mpg for people in the US] and emissions of 96 g / km of CO2- perfect for her kind of driving in Los Angeles.

Thanks JoeKnight. I was missing a few of those.

Is that Gala the current issue Ksenia? Or is it old? Also, thanks MjAtaura.

Found three more to judge: 1. Heidi Klum vs. Emma Roberts 2. Elle MacPherson vs. Carla Gugino 3. Nicky Hilton vs. Katy Perry

Actually MjAtaura, those pictures were originally taken for Arena magazine, May 2005. I posted scans from the issue here: http://www.bellazon.com/main/index.php?sho...260#entry536298

Thanks to Reeyo, I have been able to translate the entire article: Here is my translation of the main article on the German Vogue website: I, Heidi Purposeful, generous and fantastically humorous. A visit with the most beautiful and successful personal-corporation in the world. Sunshine, a warm, light breeze breathes through the city. 10:30 in the Los Angeles morning. It promises to become a beautiful day. "Good Morning everyone," whistles Heidi Klum in her best mood as she rips open the door with cheerful momentum. She looks fantastic, totally without makeup, so casual only wearing a t-shirt and black leggings, without an entourage. She looks around at the hairstylist, makeup artist and wardrobe specialist and gives everyone her million-dollar smile. "When I came home last night, I had to put makeup on my children for the first time. They found my makeup so wild and wanted to look just like me," she blurts out. NICE GIRL We are on the grounds of an old power plant in a roomy trailer, in which Heidi Klum is preparing for the photo shoot. She glides into the hairstyling chair, striking her long legs valued at 1.6 million euros together and checks her Blackberry for the last time. "Today, I'm not supposed to laugh on set," she giggles informally. "The photographer wants me to look straight ahead and seriously into the camera." Heidi should not show her trademark laughter? "What else is there?" asks the willing Klum critic. "That is okay. I don't make make anything of criticism and certain commentary does not interest me. There are certain things I just don't talk about." Clear answer. That is exactly what is so refreshingly sympathetic about Heidi Klum: always friendly, in a good mood, never hard, annoying or cold, not even regarding paparazzi. To be sure, she demarcates the boundaries clearly. "Take part and surpass your partner," her motto reads. A woman who wears her heart on her tongue knows what she wants and has no angst about saying "no". Every bit as purposeful today at 35 years as she was in 1992 when she beat out more than 25000 rivals on Thomas Gottschalks late-night show. Her best friend even today, Karin, had persuaded her to join in at that time. With her newly established Heidi Klum, PLC ("You never know how good that is") and with a $300,000, three-year modeling contract in her pocket, Klum went first to Miami in 1993 and then to New York. Diligently, far away from home and without support, she fought for one casting after another. "The beginning was bad. I got many refusals and often felt alone, homesick," she reveals. "But I wanted to prove to myself that I could do it." She instructed her agent to open doors for her. She already felt she could handle the rest. THE BREAKTHROUGH In the spring of 1997, she ascended to the peak of U.S. modeling - she walked the runway for Victoria's Secret - the beginning of her now more than 10-year collaboration with the lingerie cult-label. Also, her private life could not have run better. In the same year, she married her fiancee, celebrity hairstylist Ric Pipino (the marriage held for six years during her steep career, but is no longer standing and they are separated). Soon after that Heidi's star was illuminated in the sky over Hollywood, as she occupied different roles in films and TV shows. One of the memorable early appearances was a scene in bed with Michael J. Fox in the successful series Spin City, in which Heidi played herself yodeling. A simple irony that she can again and again have a marvelous time with that. Also, her international breakthrough did not wait long. In 1998 she became the first German on the cover of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue and released a true "Heidimania" with that. Over 55 million people leafed through it, admired Heidi, and made it the most sold "Swimsuit" issue of all time. Corporate brands, photographers and designers scrambled for the 1.76 meter tall German. It followed a breathtaking success story. The "Frauleinwunder" [superwoman], with her American fans, advanced to become one of the most important German businesswomen. She closed business deals with, among others, H & M, McDonald's, Diet Coke, Katjes, designed shoes, clothes and jewelry for Birkenstock, Otto and Mouawad, hosted and produced two successful TV-shows (Germany's Next Top Model and, in the USA, Project Runway), published a book and a CD, launched her own cosmetics and perfume series, and in 2007 promoted, with her second husband, the British pop singer Seal, Volkswagen. "I inherited my business sense from my father, my good heart from my mother," declares Heidi Klum, her indefatigable creative joy that Forbes says earned her a winnings of 14 million dollars in 2008. The dream career she has today came a little unusually. "I am shorter and heavier than most models, have a German butt from eating too many potatoes, and I get pimples more than other people." Overall, she gladly fills her belly, participates in gymnastics rather seldom, because she doesn't like sports very much, and she states that her breasts are 100% real, just as nature made them. "My man finds happiness with that. We want them to remain natural. Wrinkles are the same for me. Botox, to be clear, is okay, but it's not for me - it changes your whole look." Heidi owes her self confidence, for the most part, to her upbringing. As the baby of the family, she grew up with her 10-years-older brother in Bergisch Gladbach, a suburb of Cologne, where "everyone knows everyone", and without any ado completed her Abitur [final exam to graduate high school]. "I was mostly good, never rebellious, maybe a little bored." Her parents raised her to be open-minded, but with clear boundaries; there were crazy parties for the children, she was allowed to put on her own makeup and have boyfriends, only hitchhiking on mopeds and drugs were absolutly taboo. "My family was really always there for me," and she proudly tells how her parents would let her take the car and sleep over at their weekend-house and hold costume parties where they wouldn't disturb their daughter, except in an emergency. Just as caring, Heidi today looks after her three small children Leni, 5, Henry, 3, and Johan, 2, with her husband Seal in Los Angeles, where they live and soon will expand with their youngest addition. Seal met her, by the way, in a hotel lobby in New York in 2004, an immediate spark. 2005 followed with the romantic wedding on a beach in Mexico. As we turn toward the theme of family, Heidi's emerald-green eyes flash. "Leni paints a lot, like I did at that time," she tells and gestures with her hand in the air. "And the kids love music like their Papa. Seal and I work from home so that we are always there for our children." About the question of what are the rules of the house, she promptly answers: "Good behavior, no playing in the living room, we eat only in the kitchen without the TV on and light no open candles. I'm afraid that our house will burn down." Since the spirited mother also has a fear of flying, she always carries her baby teeth in a leather pouch as a talisman when she travels, which is common knowledge, yet she does not want to talk about the dangers that come with a life in the public eye. "I have the feeling that I shouldn't make a big deal out of it." Heidi Klum has learned a lesson for sure. Out of one of the small, plain girls from the village stands a self-assured woman with an unbiased view of herself that circles the globe. "I believe I have a healthy intelligence and common sense and therefore have no need for religion. And yes, I have gotten into politics in the meantime, which is part of becoming an adult - you shouldn't look at the world with the eyes of a child anymore. Politics must see to it that your food is nourishing," she heartily pleads. And whatever Heidi Klum's heart concerns, it ticks in the right place, given the numerous charity organizations that she supports. On 1 June, Heidi has a birthday. The celebration means a barbecue with balloons in the garden, and she surely will find "something that glitters in a jewelry box with a poem from 'Schatzi' [lit. "treasure"]." Her biggest wish: a German shepherd that would be number two. Perhaps Seal will read this Vogue in time. Congratulations, Heidi!

Great find! Seal has posted the video on his YouTube channel, where the video is a little bit bigger:

Great find!

I don't remember ever seeing that Nefertiti.

Wow!

For those that didn't understand this, it's Heidi talking about the Stern Magazine article about her. She thinks the picture montage is sweet, but says that their level of journalism is no better than tabloids. She did a long interview for that issue, but they didn't print it. Instead they printed comments from people like the former modeling agency head Mr. Casablanca who had mean things to say about her and call her father a "Schießbudenbesitzer" which translates roughly as a person who sits in a toilet stall with sh*t.
