Precious career advice for daughter Leni
Heidi Klum reveals in an interview what important advice she gives daughter Leni for her promising modeling career.
Heidi Klum, 48, is thrilled that her daughter Leni, 17, is enjoying following in her footsteps and is also starting a promising career as a model. In an interview with the US magazine “People Magazine”, Heidi reveals what advice she gives her daughter on the way.
Heidi Klum: “It’s ok to say ‘no’!”
Heidi is confident that Leni can find her own way in the modeling industry – even if she has very big footsteps to fill. “I said to her: ‘At the end of the day you have to be satisfied with yourself. And don’t do anything you don’t want to do. It’s okay to say’ no ‘.” “Leni, whose father is Italian businessman’s father Flavio Briatore, 71, has already landed two magazine covers. A first cover for the German “Vogue” together with her mother and a solo shoot for the German edition of “Glamor”. At the beginning of the year Leni walked the catwalk for the Berlin Fashion Week for the first time.
Childhood experiences prevented fear of the camera
“She’s having fun,” says Klum of Leni. “She’s not afraid of cameras because she always comes to my sets and the filming of my shows. She has strength because she has learned to use the camera in a playful way.” She may have had a teenage career in her cradle. Klum recently revealed that she was pregnant with Leni when she walked the catwalk for the 2003 Victoria’s Secret fashion show. But Heidi seems to be helping Leni’s career wherever she can: “I helped her with deals and she has so many things in the pipeline,” says Heidi. “She has a very good head on her shoulders and I will always stand behind her, “says Heidi of the up-and-coming career of her future supermodel daughter Leni.” It’s really exciting because she’s now doing all the things I’ve always dreamed of. “
