While this site is about collecting the best (read: hottest) photos of Heidi Klum, we can't get around posting a few lines about her.

Born in 1973, Heidi has been in countless ads for the biggest labels and designed her own clothing lines, jewellery, shoes, swimsuits and fragrances. She has become an icon in the modelling industry.

It's safe to say she is among the best known models to ever grace the runway.
