I always look forward to her Halloween costume with dread and glee.

At least she didn’t dress up as someone experiencing homelessness, I guess.
Read the room Martha!
That must have been hot to wear, worth it. Heidi keeps her crown another year.
Cool costume, horrible person.
Surprisingly, I haven’t heard too many controversies around Heidi Klum. What makes her horrible?
IMHO you don’t need to be controversial to be a self-centered ass. She’s treating young women badly in her show and enabling eating disorders by telling already thin women to lose more weight.
Meanwhile none of the “winners” are actual successful since GNTM is made to amuse and not to actual prepare young women for the same career path Heidi had. They also set them up to fail with the contracts the women have to sign when they “win”.Heidi knows all this and is still earning money by being cruel and belittling them. She’s a pretty self centered person and I don’t think she really cares of she hurts people / living beings along the way as long as things work out for her.
Ah similar to Tyra Banks then, but not as bad.
Celebrities aren’t necessarily great people. I have to admit, if she isn’t raping children or pumping millions into elections or something similarly evil, I can’t muster up outrage over this. It sucks that the contestants aren’t treated well. That says more about production and filming in general than it does Heidi setting out to destroy them personally.
I can’t muster up outrage over this
Nobody asked for an outrage. There’s nuance and it’s definitely possibly to just accept someone is a shitty person without trying to justify it.

That whole show wouldn’t work without her and it’s totally up to her how she treats people. In the first years the agency those women were bound to, after winning was also owned by Heidi Klums father. So she profited from this on multiple levels.
I’m not justifying it by acknowledging she’s not a good person. There’s levels to the depravity, that’s all.
I can appreciate the costume.
So many questions. How long does it take to get in/out of this? How much did she spend on it? How long does she wear it? What does she do about the bathroom issue? How does she get in/out of a vehicle?
Vogue has an interview with Heidi about this year’s costume that has a little more info
So, where did Klum’s idea for the lifelike (and life-sized) appendage begin? For this Halloween, the German supermodel says she wanted to take something completely normal—and turn it into something that was anything but. “Some of the most interesting ideas come from the most ordinary things,” says Klum. “I love the idea of taking something so common, and that we see every single day, something we probably never even think twice about, and turning it into something larger than life. I thought it would be funny and bizarre to take something so familiar and twist it.”
There were some logistical issues to figure out—like how Klum could actually move and walk around like a hand, for starters. “There is so much planning, sculpting, molding and engineering that goes into these costumes,” says Klum. “The hand had to be large enough to make the impact I wanted, but also constructed in a way that I could actually wear it and move around.”
Ever wonder how someone as committed to a statement look as Heidi ends her Halloween night? Well, usually it involves several hours of shedding her costume. “By the end of the night, I’m usually ready to get out of my costume,” says Klum. “Some of these transformations take so much time to get into, and getting out of them can be an adventure in itself.” And the next morning, she doesn’t call it quits on Halloween just yet. “November 1 is also when I start thinking about next year,” says Klum. “I’m always collecting ideas, so even when Halloween is over, my brain is already working on what I could possibly become next.” And we love her for it.
The last has an answer? She showed up in the back of an ambulance (standing) and was helped down the ramp by four guys dressed aa paramedics.
Now I have more questions. How heavy is this? If she can’t sit down all the extra weight has to mean her feet are killing her by the end of it, right?
Why? Why a severed hand not some other random body part? What’s the back story to this?
Heidi has always done extremely detailed and extravagant Halloween costumes. They’re usually weird and unexpected.

Thanks for sharing…so deep down…she’s kind of a weirdo. Cool…my type.
