Gisele Bundchen Biography: Could you imagine a Brazilian supermodel Gisele Bundchen playing basketball instead of catwalking? Born on July 20, 1980 in Brazilian town of Horizontina, Gisele was the tallest in her class and she intended to be a professional basketball player. When she was 14, her class had a trip to Sao Paulo and there a modeling agent noticed the girl. At the age of 16 Gisele settled in New York city working in modeling business. She had her debut on New York's Fashion Week. Her extraordinary appearance and daring behavior amid such chic crowd were outstanding and a young star was offered to sign several contracts with such top brands like Dior, Versace, Bulgari, Valentino, Michael Kors, Dolce & Gabbana, Givenchy, Guerlain and Ralph Lauren. Year 2000 was a "cover" year for the model as she was glowing on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine. She also was seen on the covers of ELLE, Flare, Marie Claire, Newsweek, Vogue and many more. Gisele also posed nude for Photo magazine and Vanity Fair magazine; her topless pictures were in GQ Magazine.
