Gisele has not even achieved the 25% of what Claudia and Cindy were in the 90's. Cindy and Claudia were pops stars along with Michael Jackson and Madonna, they defined a era.

Gisele is merely a top model, the most successful top model of the last years and that's it.

which body? this one?


^ Gisele has one of the most horrible bodies I have seen in my life. straight with no hips, no waist and flat chested, If you wanna see what people think about your lovely Gisele just check this out

In the late 80's, early 90's the models had strong bodies, voluptuos, curves,
Gisele's body is a joke compared with Supers', definitely Gisele and her tranny look had NOT had a chance to be a model int he era of the Supers.

this is a Hot Body with a gorgeous face.

no late arrivings? well, not everyone was like Naomi, Cindy Crawford was/is known in the industry as a pro who is always on time, even better, she arrives before the photographer.

^ I'm by no means a Gisele fan, but I would hardy call her body horrible...in any stretch of the imagination. Flat chested is an equal stretch considering she has some of the biggest breasts I've ever seen on a high fashion model.

As for this whole obsession with the supermodels, whether they still exist or not, I will never, EVER understand why people care so damn much. It's been a good 15 years since that heyday....move the f#*@ on already. The only reason any of those girls is famous is luck and timing. There was no talent, no super qualities except for great bodies, and no extraordinary beauty that shook the conventions of the word "pretty". They defined an era, and that era is long since dead....

Thank god none of the girls today have that kind of cult devotion because if I have to hear people worship Sasha or Coco or Daria 15 years from now I'll scream.

I agree with C.S., although I'd say Kate was the last of the Supers.

Ugh.

That's open to interpretation. It is certainly NOT a fact that clothing looks better on the "young and thin." Ridiculous. I'd take Claudia over any of these "new" girls who look like abandoned, malnourished children ANY time.

[model_mom]

Beauty and Body and Personality have left the building...and until some agency decides to spend an extended amount of time developing such a model the "Supermodel" is indeed doomed.

[alix*]

Well thank you for stating the obvious Claudia

[emma peel]

the pic of four of the supers together on page 1 just shows how womanly and mature they looked (in a confident way), their thighs were thin but not stick-like as today's little girl orphan look. now the girls look like preying mantis or h.r. geiger creatures... all bony spine and collarbones. it looks vulnerable and weak, so therefore their careers are disposable and weak.

[leyla m.]

Claudia got a bit too big for her own shoes IMO. i remember her heydays and as far as i know and saw her at our local beach she was recognised but by no way escorted with even one bodyguard. She was boring, arrogant and had no charisma whatsoever.
i dont compare her to any of the actual supermodels of the 90s, Linda, Cindy, Naomi, Christy... all of these have that little extra, the "je ne sais quoi" that i dont see in Claudia.
She is however totally right that that supermodel era in general is over. i agree totally. i am finding models today not of the same level and the obsession with them is not understandable. ... lets not even talk about kids aspiring to be any one of them

well, you don't remember/know well, in fact Cindy and Claudia had bodyguards, they had events in big malls to present her calendars and videos

that's your personal opinion, the fact is that she was one of them, in certain years Claudia was even bigger than Cindy in terms of popularity, Claudia has appeared like in 1500 magazine covers, she has the record.

I understand that you don't like her but the facts speak for themselves.

Gisele to me though is the super of all supers because she has really had so much success in commercial modeling and HF modeling. (and no im not just being biased) Cindy is often considered this but...in HF she barely made a blimp. She never amounted in the HF industry like Naomi Linda or the other C's did. IMO. She made her mark in commercial modeling. Gisele on the other hand had VS. And you look back at her campaigns and covers she has really done almost everything out there. And even more...so to keep that position when the industry just throws and brings new girls out like its nobody's business is even more amazing. To me Gisele will make an even bigger impact (on me) then all these supers did years ago.
