German model Heidi Klum is probably one of the most famous supermodels in recent history. If you can name a top fashion or lifestyle magazine, chances are she’s graced the cover. On top of this, she has worked as a TV host, producer, fashion designer, and perfume maker. Oh, and even now, years into her career, she is still one of the most beautiful women in the world.
You’re here because you want to know more about Heidi Klum, right? You want to know her height, age, and weight? Well, we’ll give you her vitals. We’ll add some extra information such as her net worth and some facts about her too!
Who is Heidi Klum?
Heidi Klum is a German-American supermodel. In 1992, while studying to become a fashion designer, she won a modeling contract worth a whopping $300,000 from an American modeling agency. Rather than go into fashion design, she leaped at the opportunity. She’s probably glad that she did too. It wasn’t long before she was featured on the front cover of Sports Illustrated, Vogue, and more.
In her career as a model, there is barely a major magazine or brand that she hasn’t worked for. In fact, during her modeling career, she was even dabbling in a bit of video game acting. Heidi was an insanely busy woman, and by 2008, she was the highest-paid model in the world.
In recent years, Heidi Klum has remained popular, but she is not working as a model anywhere near as much as she used to. Instead, she is designing clothing & shoes for various brands, released her own fashion range, and even crafted some stunning perfumes. She’s also worked as a judge on America’s Got Talent.
At this point, Heidi has been active in the entertainment industry for a good 30 years. We’ve barely scratched the surface of what she’s done in that time. Trust us, she’s worth a lot (more on that soon), but she has worked hard to earn every cent.
How Tall is Heidi Klum?
As a supermodel, you can expect Heidi Klum to be very tall, and she is. She comes in at 5-foot, 9 inches (1.76m). This makes her significantly taller than the average height for a female, and a little taller than some of her supermodel pals too.
How Old is Heidi Klum?
While she certainly doesn’t look it, as of 2023, Heidi Klum is 50 years old. She was born on 1st June 1973. This means that by the time she was awarded her first modeling contract, she was 18/19 years old.
How Much Does Heidi Klum Weigh?
There aren’t that many supermodels that talk about how much they weigh. Most of the time, determining how much they weigh is just an educated guess. You don’t need to do that with Heidi Klum. In August 2023, she announced that she weighed 138 lbs (62kg).
When she announced her weight, it actually caused a bit of a storm on social media. A lot of people started to spread some pretty awful lies about how Heidi deliberately starved herself. It was a big thing on some gossip websites. A bit later on, Heidi went on social media and disputed these rumors. She said that she doesn’t count her calories (nor starve herself) and eats whatever she wishes throughout the day.
What is Heidi Klum’s Net Worth?
At one point, Heidi Klum was one of the highest-paid models in the world. She was raking in a rather cool $16 million per year. Even when she dropped down to the second highest-paid model, she still had $20 million landing in her bank account each year.
In recent years, she has wound down her modeling career a little bit. She is no longer getting paid the big bucks to feature in model shoots, but she is earning a sizable amount of cash from her business work. It is believed that Heidi Klum is worth anywhere between $160 million and $200 million.
Facts About Heidi Klum
- She appeared in a photographic book called ‘Heidilicious’. Almost every image had her tastefully nude. During the promotion of the book, Heidi stated that she was a nudist and grew up that way. Although, she has rarely ever done nude photoshoots outside of this book.
- During her ‘downtime’, Heidi is an artist. While she hasn’t had any art exhibitions featuring her work, she did create a sculpture entitled ‘Dog with Butterflies’ that went on display in New York for a while. This dog was designed as a tribute to the rescue dogs that lost their lives on 9/11. It was a stunning piece of work and shows how immensely talented Heidi Klum is.
- Heidi always dreamed of being a fashion designer. The competition that gave her a start in the modeling industry was known as Model 92. She was very reluctant to enter. She wanted to finish her education, but her friend insisted that she would probably win. Obviously, she did. Heidi still made sure to finish her education, though. It’s always good to have a backup plan!
- She has been married 3 times. This includes a marriage to legendary musician, Seal.
- Shortly after the Berlin Wall fell, Heidi purchased a piece. She now keeps it in her backyard.
- She has never been one for parties. Sure, she has to do some PR events, but Heidi has repeatedly stated that she would rather be at home, curled up with a good book, than out partying somewhere.
- She lives for Halloween! In fact, every year, Heidi’s Halloween parties are the talk of the town. You know you’ve made it in show business if you are able to grab an invite to one of her Halloween events. You won’t beat her costume, though. Heidi always goes the extra mile in putting together a cracking Halloween outfit.
Conclusion
As of 2023, Heidi Klum is 50-years-old. She’s had a career spanning 31 years, and she shows no sign of slowing down yet. While the 5’, 9”, 138 lbs Heidi is no longer working as actively on her modeling, she is making a huge amount of cash from her TV and fashion design work. We wouldn’t be surprised if she is still a popular name 20-30 years from now!
