It's Official: Max Factor Hearts Gisele

BellaSugarUK — Thu, 04 Sep 2008 04:00:00 -0700

So it appears that the rumours have turned out to be true. Whether you love or hate her ad – it's official; Giselle is the new face of Max Factor.

The iconic makeup brand will be 100 next year, and to mark their anniversary the famous Brazilian super will be pouting and preening in their ads. In addition, Max Factor have got legendary make-up artist and catwalk guru Pat McGrath on board to create the looks for the Gisele campaign.

Pat is famed for going all-out to create extra-spectacular catwalk-esque looks and has worked at the Stella McCartney and Christian Dior shows, to name just two. To work alongside Gisele and Pat McGrath, Max Factor have also signed up famous fashion photographer, Nick Knight, to capture the magic of this centenary collaboration.

According to E! Online reports a while back, it's rumoured that Gisele has signed a two-year, $2.5 million deal to endorse Max Factor's products. So she's rich and beautiful? No, of course we're not jealous.

Fab Ad: Gisele for Ipanema

FabSugar — Tue, 18 Sep 2007 13:00:22 -0700

A good chunk of Gisele's fortune comes from the Brazilian shoe line she does on the side of all her modeling work: Ipanema. Her newest addition to the Ipanema collection benefits the "Y Ikato Xingo" effort, which aims to preserve the sacred waters of the Xingu River. Here is the latest ad campaign, and since the shoes are so water-centric, it takes the theme and runs with it: Gisele is "wearing" a dress made of water. How cool is that?! Though the shoes themselves aren't very high fashion, they look functional and are for a good cause. Plus, Gisele looks beautiful, as always, and her long flowing mane goes well with the flow of the water. Do you agree?

Fab Flash: Gisele in U2 Music Video?

FabSugar — Tue, 17 Jul 2007 07:50:33 -0700

She's won the hearts of many over the years, but Gisele has won one big heart recently: that of U2 frontman Bono. They apparently first hit it off when Gisele appeared in Bono's RED charity campaign and refused payment, but now it's looking like they might be taking it a step further.

The model is reportedly in talks with Bono to star in U2's next music video. If it happens, Gisele will join a long and venerable list of supermodel cameos in music videos: think Linda Evangelista in George Michael's "Freedom," Christie Brinkley in Billy Joel's "Uptown Girl," and Kate Moss in the White Stripes' "I Just Don't Know What To Do With Myself." Viva La Bundchen!

Fab Ad: Aquascutum Fall/Winter 2007 Featuring Gisele

FabSugar — Thu, 31 May 2007 10:25:33 -0700

Gisele may have recently parted ways with Victoria's Secret, but that doesn't mean she has said goodbye to modeling once and for all! The Brazilian babe is back in front of the high fashion lenses for Aquascutum's Fall/Winter '07 ad campaign. And don't forget she will be the upcoming face of YSl's Fall ads too. This is good news to all you Gisele fans!

Shot in Cliveden - a British mansion infamous for housing a political and sex scandal in the sixties - Gisele is cast by photographer Mario Sorrenti as a bombshell involved in trysts and intrigue. The ads will run in magazines starting in August and September.

I love the idea behind the photographs, but I'm not so sure about the clothes and the finished product. What do you all think?

Fab Flash: Gisele Y Ikatu Xingu Footwear Collection

BellaSugar — Thu, 22 Mar 2007 06:23:33 -0700

Since 2001, Gisele's footwear line called Ipanema has sold over $100 million dollars worth of sandals! The line is inspired by the legends of the Brazilian Indian people and the sandals are now available in Malaysia.

However, instead of just celebrating these legends, it has been reported that the shoe manufacturer, Grendene, has decided to help them too.

The Kisedje Indians have a campaign called "Y Ikato Xingu" which is aimed at preserving the waters of the Xingu River and the forests that protect this sacred and necessary water. Portions of the profits from the footwear will be donated toward the campaign.

This new collection of shoes comes from a graphics workshop that began in April, which gave the Kisedje's and Gisele a chance to create a unique product.

Gisele is responsible for handpicking the tribal images found on the inner-soles of each of the sandals within this collection, which includes footwear for women, children and babies.

So Gisele is a supermodel and philanthropist? She sure makes it hard to hate her!

When Will it Stop? Another Model Dies

FitSugar — Thu, 15 Feb 2007 13:00:00 -0800

I know people are hesitant to blame the fashion/modeling industry but it is hard to defend the industry when another model passes away from malnutrition.

Eliana Ramos (pictured here) was found dead in her home in Montevideo (Uruguay) by relatives. Preliminary examinations indicated her death was caused by a heart attack from malnutrition. What's even more sad? Last August, her sister, 22-year-old Luisel Ramos, was performing a catwalk show and died shortly after from heart failure caused by malnutrition.

With reports of more models passing away from not eating, it is hard not to point fingers at the modeling industry for causing (or at least aiding) eating disorders. The debate is still open -- Gisele blames parents, but do you? Take the poll, Who do you blame for eating disorders?

Fab Flash: Gisele is Still Number One

IMG Models have confirmed that uber gorgeous super model Gisele Bündchen will walk only one runway at Milan Fashion Week. It will be next Thursday for the Fall 2007 Dolce & Gabbana show. This is the first show she has walked for them since Spring 2003. Her spokesperson said:

“Gisele has a fragrance with Dolce and is doing their show exclusively in Milan next week.”

Oooh, sounds like an upcoming Beauty Byte to me! The fragrance referred to is The One by Dolce & Gabbana , and will be launched in the U.S. this summer. No fair - it has already been available in Europe for months!

The One features the Brazilian beauty in both print and television ads. This is the first new fragrance launched by the Italian duo since their licensing deal with Proctor & Gamble Prestige Products in December 2005.

We can't wait to see the gazelle-like Gisele dressed in Dolce at the show on Thursday. At least we know she'll smell great!

Gisele and Jack Share Their Fall Fun

PopSugar — Mon, 23 Nov 2009 10:00:51 -0800

Gisele Bundchen brought her stepson Jack out for an afternoon at a Boston park on Saturday. The duo enjoyed a picturesque Fall day together, as Jack explored the swings and jungle gym under Gisele's watchful eye. It looked like a warm day for November, but Gisele still kept her growing baby bump under wraps with her big sweater. She's stylishly entering the last few months of her first pregnancy, and Jack can look forward to showing his little brother or sister the ropes at the playground this time next year.
