more of her V54 interview: :whistle:

On how modeling is playing a role: "Yes, look at these pictures. This is Gisele-as-a-super-sexy-punk-rocker-in-ripped-everything. Do you think I would ever wear that? I'm a tomboy and I'm a goofball. Never in my life would I wear anything close to those clothes. After the shoot I take the clothes off, go home, and do whatever I want. For me it's just a job."

On what people think of her: "People will always have an opinion. Some people look at me and say, 'I can't believe this girl is even working. She should be a cleaning lady.' And then another will say I'm beautiful. If I'm too concerned that one thinks I'm not worth a penny or the other thinks I am, where does that leave me? At the end of the day, it's about what those people think about themselves. That catwalk wasn't about me."

On the rumors she hears about herself, like starring in the next Austin Powers movie: "Oh yes. And I'm the new Bond girl. And I have a clothing line with Dolce & Gabbana. I don't know where they get this stuff. I called Domenico and Stefano and said, 'Where are my clothes, guys?' They laughed. Same thing with Austin Powers-none of it's true. And I didn't ask to be paid only in euros. There was something about me demanding to be paid in euros, which is false. Most of the time, I don't even know what's going on."

more interview:

The pictures that had everyone gossiping in early April — you know the ones — of Gisele in derriere-bearing ripped jeans, makeup artist James Kaliardos applying lotion, have finally appeared in finished form. Leave it to Mario Testino to fashion three full V 54 covers and an editorial out of trashtastic shredded denim, skimpy metallic bikinis, and of course, Gisele.

In fact, Gisele blames Mario for the clothes (or lack thereof).

"Only Mario [Testino] could make me take those pictures. Ah! The only person that can get me to do stuff like this is Mario. You know what he’s like . . ."

As for those paparazzi pictures, they spoiled the shoot within minutes.

"I have never seen anything like this — after four minutes, Mario’s assistant yells, 'Cover her!' We look back and these guys have lenses this long. They looked like telescopes. There were fifty of them . . . We got there and it was empty — I’m looking at the camera and James [Kaliardos] is putting cream on [my bottom] and everyone is doing their job — and then I scream! So Mario refused to shoot on the beach, they put a robe on me and we went back up the mountain."

Gisele doesn't see what the big deal is about a little derriere.

"You know, people are going to say my butt is showing too much in these — but, I’m sorry, my butt showed more in Victoria’s Secret. For seven years my butt was in every catalog. It’s hypocrisy: those [paparazzi] pictures ran everywhere, and everyone was talking about my butt. This is V Magazine—if you’re going to do something like that, you do it for V."

She hates gossip so much, she doesn't even have a publicist.

"I’ve been a model for ten years and . . . I am the only person I know that does not have [a publicist]. Do you know why? Because I don’t want them to talk about me. For my job I need an agent. Where am I going? What time is my flight? Who am I working with? That’s what I need to know. I have nothing to say to people who gossip about me."

Gisele wants you to think about the bigger picture.

"I paid for a study about violence that is being edited into a book at the end of the year; we researched for three and a half years with fifty sociologists. While everyone is going around saying crazy things about my life I’m concerned with the destruction of our planet. Why don’t they talk about that? Or, forget about what I’m doing altogether, why don’t they talk about what’s going on in the environment in these magazines?"

she ROCKS!
