Landing the prized September cover, Gisele Bundchen posed for a stylish spread for Harper's Bazaar UK's 'The Fashion Issue'.
Set to hit newsstands on August 5th, the supermodel mommy opened up in the accompanying interview on topics such as childbirth, breastfeeding and getting back in tip-top shape following the arrival of baby Benjamin Brady.
The 30-year-old tells, "I think breastfeeding really helped (me keep me figure). Some people here (in the US) think they don't have to breastfeed, and I think 'Are you going to give chemical food to your child when they are so little?'"
Miss Bundchen continues, "I think there should be a worldwide law, in my opinion, that mothers should breastfeed their babies for six months."
Also revealing that she utilized meditation prior to her son's arrival, Gisele dishes, "It prepared me mentally and physically. It's called 'labour' not 'holiday' for a reason, and I knew that."
She adds, "You want to go into the most intense physical experience of your life unprepared? That doesn't make any sense to me. Then I was ready and I thought OK, let's get to work'. I wasn't expecting someone else to get the baby out of me."

Three months after giving birth to her son Benjamin in December 2009, she told Vogue “I think a lot of people get pregnant and decide they can turn into garbage disposals.” While on her pedestal – she also proclaimed that breastfeeding should be a “worldwide law”. “It’s the most absurd thing I’ve ever heard,” Bethenny Frankel, who had daughter Bryn six months after Bundchen gave birth, snapped to UsMagazine.com. “Breastfeeding is one of the most rewarding experiences, but it isn’t for everyone.”
Don’t hate her because she’s beautiful. Rather, people attack Gisele Bundchen, 30, for the controversial things she says.
“I cannot put this poison on my skin,” Bundchen — who has appeared in ad campaigns for Nivea Sun products — said at the launch of her own organic skin care range, according to the UK’s Daily Mail. “I do not use anything synthetic.”
Instead, the leggy beauty says she protects herself from sun damage by only exposing herself to rays before 8 A.M.
However, cancer experts have been quick to question Bundchen’s expertise on the matter.
“Sunscreen prevents damage to the skin and is of fundamental importance for the prevention of cancer,” said Dolival Loao, head of dermatology at Brazil’s National Cancer Institute. “This is not any poison, when a public person makes a statement like this, it creates confusion.”. -

The leggy beauty channels her iconic predecessors and opens up about Tom Brady, marriage, and how she stays super.
Gisele Bündchen whirls through her West Village brownstone — a tornado in skinny black jeans, tank top, filmy cardigan, and hausfrau slippers. Devoid of makeup, her mane of tawny hair slightly mussed, she speaks in a rapid-fire, throaty Brazilian accent. “I’m a very hyper person,” she says, rummaging through imaginary piles of clutter in her sparely decorated home away from home. (She splits her time among New York, Los Angeles, and Boston, where she lives with Tom Brady.) Indeed, while the 28-year-old could easily rest on her laurels given her enormous supermodular success, stillness just isn’t part of her repertoire.
Though Gisele clocks in at nearly six feet and has a bod that stops traffic (but is a mere size 4), it’s the one-two punch of her significant physical assets and her wham-bam personality that has not only catapulted her to the top of the modeling world but also kept her firmly at its apex for a decade and counting. “She is even better in the flesh,” says Dior designer John Galliano. “I think it was her first season in Paris when she came to do a fitting. I had heard about Gisele, but when she walked in the room I felt like my fingers had been put into the electrical socket, like, pwoah! Pure electricity.”
“What I love about her is her sensuality and energy,” seconds designer Donatella Versace. “Gisele is one of a kind.”
In her ascendancy after the waif era, Gisele recalled the supermodels of the early ’90s: Cindy Crawford, Naomi Campbell, Christy Turlington, Linda Evangelista, and Tatjana Patitz. Of course, Gisele doesn’t think of herself as a supermodel at all. “I really don’t feel like that word. It doesn’t resonate for me. It doesn’t define me,” she says, hands flapping about as she reclines on a linen-covered overstuffed sofa. “As long as I’m a good person and I do things from the heart, that’s all that matters.”
“The great thing about her is that she grew up from the ’supermodel Gisele’ into this responsible, amazing woman with an extraordinary and positive energy, ready to help anyone who needs it,” says Peter Lindbergh. At Bazaar’s shoot, she is friendly to everyone (down to the last production assistant), raids the cookie plate herself, and chats nonstop. She manages to keep it real despite the maelstrom of press reports chronicling her engagement and nuptials to Brady, the New England Patriots quarterback and her beau of two years. “Gossip is poison,” she says bluntly.
“Tom is a good guy,” she continues tentatively. “He has a very pure heart. He’s very naive, almost like a child. That is my favorite quality about him. One thing that I thought was so amazing when I first met him is that he is innocent. He sees the world with colored glasses.” (While Gisele speaks several languages, occasionally some charming malapropisms escape her.) “It’s beautiful, but I think that is rare. I love that about him. No one else sees that. He’s very strong and focused in his job, but he’s so sensitive, it’s amazing.”
Gisele’s earnest approach harkens back to what she proudly admits are her humble beginnings and close-knit family. Raised in Horizontina, Brazil, then a town of about 10,000, she’s one of six girls (one of whom is her fraternal twin).
“There were no traffic lights in my city, no movie theater — one hotel, and one bank,” she says affectionately of her hometown. Her father and mother raised their six daughters while working, respectively, as a teacher and a bank cashier. “We didn’t have a housekeeper, so we all cleaned the house.”
The prematurely willowy Gisele was tapped at just 13 by an Elite agent at a shopping mall. “I looked like a mosquito then,” she says, laughing and bugging her eyes, but by the following year she was living on her own and making a living as a model. “Maybe if my family had been wealthy, I wouldn’t have done it, but because they weren’t, I decided to go,” she says. “I didn’t want to leave my whole family, but my parents were working and I had five sisters, so things were challenging. I figured I could be independent and work. I thought I could take care of myself and it would be one less child for them to worry about.”.
