Gisele Bundchen isn't a Victoria's Secret model [1] anymore, but clearly her days of posing in her underwear are far from over. She stripped down to her skivvies and less for the GQ [2] cover and sexy photo shoot featured in the July issue. While she's not afraid to show a lot of skin in her photos, she's more reserved about baring her soul in the article — but she does open up a little about her career, her reputation, and her relationship with Tom. Here are highlights [3]:

• On whether or not she has a "signature expression": "A photo is a story. Who will be this woman? Who will be wearing those sexy tops with boys’ underwear? I try to understand. Who is she? What kind of mood is she in? Like, whatever, I’m in my bedroom. I’m like, my boyf—"
• On approaching men: "I’ve always been in serious relationships. I meet someone and date him for a long period. I don’t sit there thinking, like, 'I wonder if I can seduce that guy.' I have other things in my mind."
• On the various rumors about her: "People are unbelievable. The other day a girl on my plane was pulling my hair. She was like, “I just want to check if—” This is all my hair, by the way. I did not have extensions, let me tell you."

• On the reports that she's the highest paid model in the world [4]: "Do you think that’s important to me? Look, this is my job. I take pictures. There is no big deal. I would like to know who this reporter is finding out all of these amounts. And I would like him to talk to my accountant and figure out where is the cash that’s missing. Because I haven’t seen it."
• On telling the Boston Herald that Tom Brady is "not too shabby" back in 2005 when shown a photo of him: "Look, I’m Brazilian. I had never seen football before. I’m freezing, and all I’m thinking is, when can I go back to New York City? I didn’t understand why they were all hitting each other. Now I do, but I didn’t. I just wanted to get out of there, so I’m just gonna say what you say to get out of a conversation. If he had been any other guy, I would have said the same thing. We met through a friend who knew us both for a long time. Believe me, I didn’t even remember [the picture of Brady]. Our friend knew that we would like each other. And we did. So I guess he was right."
• On her relationship with Tom "I think we have a lot of things in common, and I think he is a really great person. He really, genuinely doesn’t have a bad bone in his body. And he is a very positive person."

Seems like Gisele is a bit defensive about her status and relationships, but we can't blame her since she's got so much of her personal life in the media. Then again, a few things are hard to believe — like where all of that cash is going [5].
