Speaking about female top models, let us define the word model. A model is a person who works in fashion, art, advertising, pornography, etc. Modeling is a kind of activity which is distinguished from other public performance types (including dancing, mime artistry, acting). However, there are no well-defined and exact boundaries between the mentioned types of activity. Female top models are among the most attractive and beautiful people in the world. They appear in movies or plays in spite of the fact this activity is not considered to be outside modeling. At the same time, some models describe themselves as actresses. As well, many female top models have the status of well-known and popular sex symbols. The most highly-paid female top models are also known as "supermodels". These are the bright celebrities often appearing in movies, performances, advertisements endorsing products, etc. The article will pay attention to Heidi Klum and Gisele Bundchen - popular female top models. Heidi Klum is a German supermodel born on June 1, 1973. She is also an actress, artist and fashion designer. Heidi Klum is especially famous for her appearances in Victoria's Secret catalogue as well as in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue. In addition to modeling, this top model has appeared in a number of TV shows (including "Spin City" and "Sex and the City"). In December 2004, Heidi Klum became the host of one of the United States reality shows called "Project Runway". It was broadcast on the local cable television channel "Bravo". The mentioned reality show was pretty famous for the competition between the contestants for a contract to design clothes for Banana Republic. This top model has her own fashion designs which are featured in the famous German catalog "Otto". She has also practice of designing jewelry for Mouawad, shoes for Birkenstock, and swimsuits which were featured in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue (in 2002). The mentioned swimsuits could be bought through the personal website of Heidi Klum. As a matter of fact, this model is an avid painter. Several of her paintings have appeared in a chain of various art magazines. It can be rather surprising, but Heidi Klum belongs to those female top models who co-hosted the FIFA World Cup draw in Leipzig, Germany (December 9, 2005). People believe that this was an expected peak in the model's career. However, the majority of her fans and experienced commentators of German press were pretty disappointed. In spite of the fact she had a clear speech, she sported the Roberto Cavalli dress which was excessively classic. She had flattened breasts; there were no legs to admire and her pretty smile was not so effective and attractive as it used to be. What special is known about Brazilian top model Gisele Bundchen? She was born on July, 20 in 1980. The peak of her career was in the 2004, when she stepped into acting a role in the movie "Taxi". Gisele Bundchen is probably best known for receiving the "Model of the Year" award. It's interesting that Rolling Stone named this model "The Most Beautiful Girl in the World".
