Watch Heidi Klum, husband Tom Kaulitz reveal 2024 Halloween costumes
Heidi Klum wins Halloween, again! At her annual costume party, Klum and husband Tom Kaulitz arrived as different versions of E.T.
Leni Klum has been in the spotlight her whole life.
The 20-year-old daughter of supermodel Heidi Klum, she is already fostering a budding career of her own − appearing in several shoots and ads alongside her mother.
After a lingerie ad the mother-daughter pair did for Intimissimi earned some backlash, the younger Klum remained unfazed. In an interview with Vogue Germany published Tuesday, she insisted that online hate is inevitable.
“I always try to remember that no matter what you do, there will always be someone who doesn’t like it,” Klum told the outlet. “You simply have no control over it and you can’t focus too much on the negative.”
Klum, a current student at New York University in Manhattan, says it helps that many of the comments are not in her native tongue. “Most of the comments are in German, and I don’t really understand many of them,” she joked. “That helps too, of course.”
As for those nepo-baby allegations, and the idea that modeling is as easy as it looks, they’re just plain false, she said.
“It’s not just jumping in front of the camera and looking pretty,” she said in the interview, originally published in German. “There are a lot of things that happen behind the scenes that you don’t even see in the end product. Modeling requires a lot of discipline.”
Leni Klum is set to join her mother as a guest judge on Season 20 of “Germany’s Next Top Model” and says she enjoyed filming being a family affair.
“Working with my mom again was great,” she said. “Even though it’s primarily work, we always have so much fun together – and then my grandma visited us on set too.”
The eldest of three children shared by Heidi Klum and singer Seal, Leni Klum, whose biological dad is Italian businessman Flavio Briatore, was adopted by Seal a few years into his marriage to Klum.
Leni Klum’s her relationship with stepfather Tom Kaulitz, whom her mother married in 2019, is also strong. Klum shares a tattoo with Kaulitz and his twin brother Bill, she told the magazine.
“My only tattoo is a matching tattoo that I did with Tom and Bill on Mama and Tom’s wedding night. One of the guests brought a tattoo machine and Tom, Bill and I tattooed each other’s dots,” she said. “It was a kind of “The Three Musketeers” moment for us. My family is like an anchor for my life.”
