Skinny VS Curvy

Ashlee Simpson is not the only mommy that’s sharing secrets and post-baby body ideas today. Let’s see how supermodel Heidi Klum is doing!

Us Magazine’s s got some details:

“I don’t exercise too much — I walk,” she added. “I walk on the treadmill a little bit. I walk on the driveway. I’m very active with the children. When you have three children and two boys, they’re very active. They want to do a lot of things. But you know when you breastfeed, when you eat right, you move around a little bit, that usually does the job.”

“For me, it always works to get back into it immediately,” she told Us. “I think that if you wait too long, it kind of sticks on and it stays there forever. I have to be motivated.”

And People Magazine’s got something to say too:

“I have some great one-of-a-kind latex pieces that were made for me. I figure why not? I embrace that I have more curves right now,” Klum, 36, told PEOPLE at the Victoria’s Secret Supermodels Take Over Times Square event on Wednesday.

“I’m definitely one of the heaviest of the bunch of the 30 girls in the show. And I still have 20 lbs. to go,” she admits. “But why not? I like my outfit. I like the way it looks on me.”

Not that she’s slacking when it comes to getting into shape. “There’s no master plan, but I have a trainer in L.A. who comes to my house,” says Klum. “She’s helping me so I don’t overdo it. I’ve been walking on the treadmill. Walking up and down the driveway. She has a medicine ball so she showed me things on there. You can’t do too much too early.”

As for her diet, “I’m not someone who eats salad and chicken,” says Klum, who says her biggest indulgence, a liter of milk a day, helped her gain 45 lbs. with her fourth pregnancy. “I have a lot of heads around the table and if there’s not variety they get bored. I mean sometimes I have two to three things to serve and my daughter will be like, ‘That’s it, Mommy?’ So it’s fish one day, goulash the next day, spaghetti Bolognese, then schnitzel. I cook a lot.”

At age 35, Kate Moss has a lengthy list of accomplishments to her name: supermodel, designer, perfume-maker, hair-care-product-creator, singer and mother. So what kinds of sayings does she remember in order to achieve success?

“There are loads,” Moss told WWD. “There’s ‘Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels.’ That’s one of them.” But at least she showed a hint of humanity, adding, “You try and remember, but it never works.”

Moss also talked about her mentors, namely her trusted friends who tell her “Oh no, Kate, that’s not a good look.” But she knows that beauty comes from the inside:
“It sounds really corny, but I think that if you’re beautiful inside, it shows on the outside for sure. You can be a pretty face, but if you’re not a nice person, it just doesn’t work. I’m not traditionally a beauty, but apparently people think I’m all right. If you’re a nice person, it definitely helps.”

… says Kate in Huffington Post.

Anyone agrees / follows Kate’s motto?

At (huge) request, here’s a post on supermodel Gemma Ward’s weight gain & desire to quit modelling – The Daily Telegraph reports:

SUPERMODEL Gemma Ward (22), the butt of attacks on an international fashion website for gaining weight, has revealed through her agent that she has no plans to return to her glittering career.

A spokeswoman for modelling agency Viviens said Ward, who is based in New York, had no immediate plans to return to the industry.
“Gemma hasn’t committed to returning to modelling any time soon,” she said, adding that Ward had the agency’s full support.

This is not the first time Gemma faces the “weight gain!” headlines – after presenting a skinny figure for years, in 2007, Gemma appeared in a Chanel runway show wearing a bikini and revealing a non-skinny, slim and curvy figure (for a model) – here’s a skinny Gemma vs curvier Gemma:

At the beginning of 2009, Gemma’s weight was an issue again, since she was spotted in a bikini after gaining a visible amount of weight. At that time, sources were saying:

“GEMMA Ward, the strikingly thin model who once captivated the international fashion scene, has piled on weight as she continues to struggle with the loss of friend Heath Ledger” (who was rumored to be her lover)”

So I’m told that this is Heidi Klum (hosting her annual party at Voyeur nightclub), but you’ll have to agree, it’s a little hard to identify her under all the paint and the wings and the feathers.

She’s showing off those curvy new mom thighs (because crows loooove fishnets)!

Here’s what Yahoo News says:

US former supermodel Cindy Crawford says she would have little chance of making it big in the fashion business today with her curvy figure, a German celebrity magazine reported Tuesday.

“I would not have become a supermodel in 2009. I look too healthy,” Crawford told Bunte.

“A body like mine with big breasts, normal thighs and toned upper arms” is no longer what the industry is looking for, she said.

Crawford, 43, said she was happy with her physique but worried about the effects of ageing like wrinkles and bulges.

“That’s why I like being in my 40s so much — being at peace with yourself, knowing about your strengths beyond being pretty,” she said.

Crawford, known for her trademark beauty spot above her upper lip, briefly studied chemical engineering before becoming one of the world’s most popular cover girls in the 1980s and 1990s.

If you’re wondering, Cindy’s stats are reported to be:

Height: 5′9” / 175 cm

Weight: 130 lbs / 59 kg (probably a bit more these days)
