I dont even consider Chanel her comeback since she shot it last year. ^ :p Cosmetics was on my wish list for years, another fragrance definitely is on my wish list too. I wonder what new work she has in store. No news is killing me. :chicken:

all we know is the shoot she did with Testino in LA.

I hope she shoots for a F/W campaign. preferably for a brand she's never worked with before (or a campaign she had only once). :p

found this bit of info interesting. An article from Gisele's W Magazine December 2001 spread.

And then there are those full yet perky Bündchen breasts. Last Summer, after the 34-C model starred in her first TV commercial, for Victoria's Secret, the company noticed a major upsurge in interest in the bra she was modeling, from its Body by Victoria collection. "Who knows if the same level of interest would have happened if Tyra [banks] did the ad?" says Victoria's Secret spokesperson Monica Mitro. "But customers remember Gisele's name, and they want the bra she's wearing."

Women clearly are deciding that a bit of a bust is a good thing. For her next Victoria's Secret campaign, Gisele will use her gifts in that department to send customers racing to buy one of the company's new cleavage-enhancing "Very Sexy" Miracle Bras. Other women are clearly opting, in growing numbers, for a permanent fix: During the last two years, the number of women undergoing breast-augmentation procedures has increased by 12 percent. Coral Gables-based surgeon Leonard Roudner reports, "I've seen women say they'd never do it—ever. Then they come in and say, 'Let's do this tomorrow.'"

Although newer breast-augmentation procedures involve "hiding" scars by making incisions in the navel area, some physicians, including Roudner, pooh-pooh the techniques. Not only does such an operation make correct placement of the implants trickier, but the scars, according to Manhattan plastic surgeon David Hidalgo, aren't always that much less visible. "In fact, the scars around the navel can sometimes be larger than hidden ones elsewhere, like under the arms," he says. "In this case, newer is not better."

One welcome development on the horizon is a new form of silicone, called cohesive silicone, that is currently used in Europe. Since the substance sticks together, unlike silicone gel, it doesn't leak if the implant breaks. But, as it hasn't yet been presented to the FDA, approval could be many years in coming.

Most surgeons agree that, when it comes to size and shape, it still takes all kinds of breasts to make women happy. "Brazilian girls, for instance, want smaller breasts than girls who dance for a living," says Roudner. "We can usually gauge from what patients do and where they come from—for example, you wouldn't have an attorney walk in and say, 'Give me a D cup.'" Just as hairstylists do, Roudner asks clients to bring in pictures. "It's the easiest way to see what they want," he says. So what's the most common reference these days? Surprise: the Victoria's Secret catalog. "I think it's more popular than Playboy, which had always been the gold standard," says Roudner. "And Gisele's always on the cover."

Does anyone have stills or pics of her appearance on Regis & Kelly in 2005? :/

I've heard she was there in 2005 but never seen anything of it :/

I thought I saw somewhere a while ago she talked about Leo in that interview, and that they got little "names for each other only we know about"

lol I NEED this interview! :p

I found this old article on when she signed as a VS angel. (I want to find the one where she was being talked out of signing her contract back in 1999/2000 from the fashion world...apparently the likes of Wintour,Testino etc were talking her out of signing and how it would ruin her career...I would love to find that article again. hehe.)

New York - World-renowned über model, Gisele Bündchen, recently signed a multimillion-dollar contract with North American lingerie firm, Victoria’s Secret. As a result, the Brazilian beauty will appear in several of their lingerie, beauty and hosiery campaigns for television and print, as well as in their point-of-sale materials.

According to rumors that circulated amongst the fashion crowd during New York Fashion Week, Gisele will receive a cool 20 million US dollars for the job.

Bündchen's appearances under the contract will begin next November with the cover of the Victoria's Secret "Christmas Dreams & Fantasies" catalog.

It is nice to see that Gisele, albeit being a young, rich and famous model, still maintains her naturalness and a down-to-earth personality. We had a chance of seeing this for ourselves recently in New York, where we shared a few moments with her. If only some of the other famous models also behaved like this...

pretty much ^. VS really helped boost her but if people think it girls and fashion darlings like Karlie,Cara,Candice,Lara etc are everywhere, Gisele was that x1000. Of course it was still "the Supermodel Era" when Gisele was a newbie so I'm sure that helped her as well. models were still on covers and such.

I always say 1998 was her breakout year (her first huge year of runway,covers,campaigns,editorial) 1999 she was the "it girl/fashion darling" and by 2000 she was a full blown Supermodel. haha.

Even the young(er) models today can't get American Vogue covers let alone 3 in one year at age 18/19 like Gisele did. that was huge.
