GISELE BUNDCHEN

Can you believe how many people started modeling when they were only 14 years old or so? Gisele Bundchen is another person on that list. She got her big break when she appeared in New York Fashion Week n 1996. The first few years of her career had been tough, but she finally walked for the “Rain” campaign of Alexander McQueen in 1998. She blew people away because she managed to walk down the slippery runway in high heels. This helped her score more jobs and shot her to stardom. She has been credited for paving the way for other Brazilian models. Many people also know her as one of Victoria’s Secret Angels in the past. When it comes to acting, she was in a movie called Taxi.
