The Liz Smith Interview Part One: Heidi Klum on Modeling and Sex

LIZ: Well, particularly, who gets to be the host, the judge and the executive producer of it? You run this thing, don’t you?

HEIDI: Well, not completely. No, there is a certain man, Mr. Weinstein, who has a little bit more of the running to do. He runs the ship and it is his show. At the end of the day I get to put my two cents in, and I certainly am never short of an idea or an opinion, but it’s fun and I like doing it. At the end of the day, they make it because of their talent or their personality. It’s completely them and they’re always different — so I think that’s what will keep the show exciting.

LIZ: Are you a tough boss?

HEIDI: I don’t think so, no.

LIZ: Just an old softie?

HEIDI: I should be a little tougher sometimes.

LIZ: I want to ask you one last question. Tell us what you think about sex, so we can do a great headline.

HEIDI: OK, I want to know first what you think about it.

LIZ: I definitely think it’s here to stay.

HEIDI: It’s definitely here to stay. It would be very boring without. It’s definitely one of the most fun things to do, you know.

LIZ: Doesn’t usually cost anything

HEIDI: Yeah, no.

LIZ: Do you feel you’re a sexy person? I felt when I was around your aura with your wonderful dynamic husband that you were both very sexy.

HEIDI: Thank you. I like it a lot.

LIZ: There’s my girl. OK you’re definitely a wowOwow

HEIDI: And you know I have a very, very sexy man so that helps a lot.

LIZ: A LOT! There are millions of women who would feel sexier if they had your husband.

Love Project Runway, I can’t imagine the stress for a creative person to make this or that outfit in 2 days , I was happy to make my girls dresses when they were little. The dresses always screamed “Home Made!”. They did not need a label. Love this competition.!!!

Me too, Carol. It would be nice to have a Tim Gunn around once in a while, wouldn’t it?

Thanks for the correction. I realized it after I submitted, but didn’t come back to it. I am very busy today getting things in order. Coming here has been a wonderful distraction.

Very appealing, Liz, both of you. Have to say when a you can sit alongside one of the world’s top models and look great—that’s something to be proud of. Fun, thanks.

I watched the show from the first season and to my great amazement, D. started watching it also. He loves how catty everyone gets and grades each outfit and gets involved, down to bets on who will get “auf’ed.” (D. is a computer genius who could wear the same Brooks Brothers polo and slacks everyday, and doesn’t care about clothing at all, except if it is comfortable.) I think he likes it because it is a competition, with tangible results, like outfits (and models).

My Grandmother made many of my clothes until I went away to college. She had worked for Marshall Field in the 20’s and 30’s and had an eye for fashion. Heidi is drop dead gorgeous.

Heidi, hello! As an artist, I am captivated by Project Runway, and love the way you handle yourself on that show. And a great crew you have, what with Tim and Nina and Mr. “I don’t bother anymore…” Love you, MP
