Gisele Bündchen | 5’11”

Gisele Bündchen wanted to be a volleyball player before breaking into the modeling industry. That all changed when her mother encouraged her and her siblings to enroll in a modeling class to help them improve their posture. She soon began her professional career.Of course, the beginning is often the most difficult part of a journey, so it’s no surprise that Bündchen had to face multiple rejections before landing her big break.

Needless to say, her perseverance was rewarded in the end. Since then, she has received a tremendous degree of attention for her numerous endeavors, including her time as a Victoria’s Secret Angel. Bündchen, who is frequently referred to as a modern-day supermodel, has also dabbled in other projects, including a supporting role in The Devil Wears Prada and an executive producer position in the animated series Gisele & the Green Team.
