| IPTC INFO | | Caption | Gisele Caroline Nonnenmacher Bündchen born July 20 1980 in Três de Maio near Horizontina Rio Grande do Sul Brazil is a Brazilian supermodel and occasional actress. _________________ Gisele Bündchen is the daughter of Valdir and Vânia Bündchen both of German descent along with five sisters: Raquel Graziela Patricia Gabriela and Rafaela. Patricia and Gisele are twins but do not look the same. Bündchen has mentioned several times that at least one of her sisters has attempted a modeling career as well. Pictures of her family reveal they share the same statuesque bone structures and long wavy brown hair. While in school Bündchen was so thin that her friends used to call her "Olívia Palito" Portuguese for Olive Oyl Popeye's skinny friend and Saracura a kind of long-legged bird. She liked to play volleyball and had even thought of becoming a professional for Brazilian team Sogipa. An often told story about the "discovery" of Bündchen is when as a schoolgirl she went to a McDonalds and was eating a Big Mac when an agent discovered the bronze-haired beauty. In an interview Bündchen remarked that she at first did not know what a model was thinking it was something perhaps akin to being a hooker. In 1993 Bündchen 13 years old joined the Dilson Stein's mannequin course to correct her posture with her sisters Patrícia and Gabriela because her mother insisted. The course was for teenagers who wanted to be models.

On August 20 1993 Bündchen was playing volleyball for Sogipa in Porto Alegre. Elite "kidnapped" her and took her to a contest. She came between the five finalists. Then she went to São Paulo. She came in second in the national Elite Look of the Year contest - Claudia Menezes from Bahia was the one in the first place. | | Headline | Gisele Bündchen always returns to be part of Brasil Carnaval | | Keywords | Gisele | | Copyright Notice | Visit her section @ carnavalcity.com | | URL | http://www.carnavalcity.com/index.php?title=Rio_de_Janeiro_Carnaval/Queens_%26_Muses/Gisele_B%C3%BCndchen |
