Gisele Bundchen Tom Brady's Victoria Secret Top Model


Without a doubt, Gisele Bundchen has been -- and still is -- the biggest name in modeling. An industry mainstay since she first walked the runway for Alexander McQueen, Giorgio Armani and Dolce & Gabbana, Gisele Bundchen has single-handedly ushered in a new modeling trend of emphasizing sexy over skinny (according to Vogue) and now stands as the highest-paid and most sought-after face in the fashion industry. A well-recognized favorite with everyone from Victoria's Secret to Apple, Gisele has achieved a level of fame that every model seeks, but only a handful ever achieve.

Gisele Bundchen's pop culture reach extends far beyond fashion and deep into the entertainment world in general. Even though she has her own famous hubby (Tom Brady), she still represents the "dream model girlfriend" for every other straight man with a pulse. Just ask Conan O'Brien, who regularly fawns over her whether she's on TV with him or not (creepy, we know), or Rolling Stone who dubbed her "the most beautiful girl in the world." It's hard to disagree.


From 2000 to 2005, Bündchen was in an on-again/off-again relationship with American actor Leonardo DiCaprio.
On Thursday, 26 February 2009, Bündchen married Tom Brady in a small Catholic ceremony at St. Monica Catholic Church in Santa Monica, California. On 5 April 2009, the couple remarried in a larger ceremony in Costa Rica, with Brady's son and actress Bridget Moynahan present. For the April ceremony, Bündchen wore a dress and veil designed by John Galliano.

In December 2009, Bündchen gave birth to a boy in Boston, but the couple had trouble choosing a name before finally picking Benjamin Rein Brady, whose middle name is in honor of Bündchen's mother's father Reinoldo.Bündchen said that she speaks only Portuguese to her baby.

Bündchen told Harper's Bazaar Magazine that breastfeeding should be a "worldwide law" stating, "Some people here (in the US) think they don't have to breastfeed, and I think 'Are you going to give chemical food to your child when they are so little?' I think there should be a worldwide law, in my opinion, that mothers should breastfeed their babies for six months."

She later explained her comments on her blog, "My intention in making a comment about the importance of breastfeeding has nothing to do with the law," Bündchen writes. "It comes from my passion and beliefs about children. Becoming a new mom has brought a lot of questions, I feel like I am in a constant search for answers on what might be the best for my child." They baptized their 6-month-old son Benjamin in Santa Monica on 22 June 2010

Gisele Bundchen Joins Victoria’s Secret
The year 2000 was a banner year for Gisele Bundchen, as she dated Leonardo DiCaprio in her personal life and continued her model assault on pop culture in her professional life. In addition to closing in Paris for Galliano and Valentino, she became only the fourth model to grace the cover of Rolling Stone. Naturally, industry stalwart Victoria’s Secret snatched her up to become a Victoria’s Secret Angel. With the lingerie company, she would develop into a long-term fixture in ads and fashion shows. After making the first of two appearances in the esteemed Pirelli Calendar of 2001, Gisele Bundchen briefly shocked the fashion industry when she announced that she was “retiring” from the catwalk. In fact, she was only becoming pickier, and she would return a year later to work with Marc Jacobs and Christian Dior. With Dior, she would sign an exclusive modeling contract while also developing her acting skills in commercials for CrediCard and Nivea, and the Jimmy Fallon-led 2004 feature film, Taxi.


SEX APPEAL
In simple terms, Gisele Bundchen defines "sexiness" just by existing. Despite her own complaints about her large nose or her opinion that her twin sister is actually the more attractive Bundchen of the bunch, it's common knowledge in the sex quadrant of the pop culture spectrum that Gisele Bundchen is a very special creature. Since becoming a model icon, she's been singled out by various publications and networks (Rolling Stone, FHM, Stuff, VH1, E!) for her flawless physique and sexy nature. Sporting a more shapely figure than some of her predecessors, Gisele Bundchen's chest curves have also blessed her with the nickname of "Boobs from Brazil."


Only one man has succeeded in truly winning Gisele Bundchen's affections and it was spawned from her interest in him. Initially drawn to actors, Gisele Bundchen briefly dated Josh Hartnett before settling down for five years with Leonardo DiCaprio. Afterward, her interest in dating athletes grew through dating surfer Kelly Slater and publicly sharing her interest in New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady. About the then-attached Brady (who was dating Bridget Moynahan), she said, "He's cute, but if he has a girlfriend, he's gay to me. There are too many men in the world to go after a man who has a woman."
