Don’t think Heidi Klum got that phenomenal body without hard work. She’s constantly on the go with her four kids, watching what she eats (“I say no to a lot of things most people say yes to,” she says) and hitting the gym in her own line for New Balance.
And it pays off: at 39, she’s still wearing some of the sexiest outfits on the red carpet, including this skin-baring golden number custom-made for her to attend an Oscars party. But what we considered daring was no sweat for the supermodel to wear.
“You should have seen it before!” she told PEOPLE at a launch party for her spring New Balance pieces. “I did actually make it very modest; it was all the way down to my bellybutton.”
“To me it wasn’t even that risky,” Klum explained. “Those are my boobs, you know? If they were like all the way down to my knees I would be like, ‘Okay, maybe that’s the wrong dress,’ but I felt like, Why not?”

She may love to go bold on the red carpet, but when she’s working out, she’s more conservative. “I like to have shirts a little bit longer,” she said, indicating her spring tops. “I think that certain bits should be hidden, right? I want to look cute when I work out!”
And she has plans to look just as cute behind the desk of America’s Got Talent as she always has, with one notable exception.
“You only are seen from [your waist] up,” she says, “So why am I squeezing myself into these shoes that no one sees? I can take them off!” Gorgeous, funny and practical — no wonder she’s the busiest woman in Hollywood!
