Gisele Bündchen

Brazilian-born supermodel Gisele Bundchen began her career at the age of 14, and by the time she was 20, had achieved the official status of international supermodel. Bundchen graced the covers of the world's top fashion magazines including Vogue, W and Harper's Bazaar, and was a favorite runway model of renowned designers Valentino, Christian Dior and Dolce & Gabbana. Outside of the high fashion circuit, Bundchen amassed millions of rabid fans for her five-year run modeling revealing lingerie for Victoria's Secret, and for her popular line of beach sandals produced in a partnership with the Brazilian company Ipanema. During her early years, Bundchen made headlines for her string of famous actor and athlete boyfriends, but later on it was her business savvy and environmental philanthropy that dominated the leggy model's off time, not to mention a celebrated union with football hero, Tom Brady.
