PREGNANT HEIDI KLUM KNOWS HOW TO KEEP FIT
Mom-to-be Heidi Klum, her husband Seal, and their two children Leni, 5, and Henry, 3, were photographed at LAX Airport on August 05, 2009.
Heidi, who is known for her svelte figure, recently spoke about how she has kept in shape all these years
“I’ve never really had any special girdle machines or anything like that,” she said. “For me, it’s, you know, really healthy foods, exercising, playing with the children, going to the park. Normal things.”
“I’ve never done diets,” she added. “But I also do not sit on the couch with my feet up and eat one potato chip bag after the next and one burger after the other. I think you have to kind of do a little bit of everything.”
The mom of three also believes in getting back in shape immediately after pregnancy.
“I never really put a lot of pressure on myself, but for me personally, I feel like it is always better to get into shape immediately. I feel like if I drag it out too long, I’m not going to do it,” she said. “So for me it works to kind of get back into shape, afterwards, I feel great. I can put my normal clothes back on and it makes me happy, and it’s worked so far.”

I absolutely luv that Heid and Seal spends so much quality time with their kids. I don’t know how she gets any work done, because she always makes time for her babies. Have anyone ever seen her little girl with her other daddy? who is he?
Her little girl father is a famous European- rich or something of that nature. I don’t think hes involved in her life and seal is more of her daddy then her bio dad.
Leni’s bio dad is Flavio Briatore, the Formula One guy. He’s had nothing to do with Leni. Seal has been her daddy since day one.
I agree with Heidi on the pregnancy tips. Eating right and excercising is the key. It took me 4 years to get the baby weight off. If I could do it all over, I would have excercised more and breast fed longer.
aww, look at Leni and her little black baby doll, so cute.
Henry’s hair looks different…not as bushy and full.
I wonder if they cut it down some?
Very adorable family
Looks like he got it cut a little to shape it, conditioned, and moisturized. Both kids look cute as usual
Both kids are adorable!
I envy women who lose weight during nursing. I gained weight with both the children I nursed. I have four children. As for losing baby weight, it was easier when I was younger. With each baby it felt more difficult. I kept dancing with all except the youngest. By that time I’d stopped dancing, but I did lose weight though I never got back down to a 3/1 with the last one. Right on, Heidi!
Maybe when Heidi have her baby they’ll get a surprise like Kimora and Djimon and have a chocolate baby. I hate to say it, but if it does happen, I’m sure he’ll be disappointed like Djimon.
What makes you think Djimon is disappointed in any way with his son?
BCKay, you know I was gonna hound you like a dog for your comment, right?
But after reading your first comment, you are right. Some (and I stress some) black men do get into interracial relationships because they have issues with their own darkness or with colorism. Black women do that too. But it was simply wrong to say that. First, you put dark skinned black children down when you say they aren’t the preferred ‘look’ for a black or interracial couple. No child should ever have to bear that sort of ignorance and insecurity from anybody.
2nd, you don’t know Djimon. From the pics I saw in OK, he look proud and wonderful of his child. And so does Kimora. The baby is absolutely gorgeous. I don’t think they are having issues of resentment or regret over having a dark skinned baby.
Now with Seal - yeah, he might have some issues with a darker skinned baby. I can see that. But dam, I don’t want a child to have the bear the brunt of favortism and bias because he or she is dark skinned and not the ‘preferred look’ of what the parents wanted. I understand your comment, but think of what that baby has go through if it was brought into the world with parents that were resentful of their color. In anycase, dark or not I hope they accept and love that baby as Seal has come to accept and love little white Leni - even if the baby is dark skinned.
On the other hand, EVERYONE has gotta know that always a chance of having a darker skinned baby when you get with a black or dark skinned person, so why would it be a surprise to have one? If you don’t want the possibility of having a darker skinned baby, then quite messin around with dark skinned or black folks for heaven’s sake. and black folks need to get a clue. I hate colorism.
tha hell you talkin about?
wow. You make me sad. First, I’m amazed at the amounts ludicrousness and insanity you have in that one short comment.
What leads you to believe Djimon would be disappointed in his son? And what about Kimora and Djimon’s son’s complexion is surprising?
BCKay,
You are truly a sad, pathetic, small person. Shame on you for thinking you know how someone you have never met feels about their own child. Keep your ignorant comments to yourself.
Leo and memasniece
Djmon probably wanted a child that looked more like kimora or her daughters and not a child that looked more like him. It’s one of the reasons why so many black men date other races because they want mixed and light skinned children, and Kenzo look like a pure black child. Don’t act like you don’t know what i’m talking about.
If he is happy, good and I’m not saying he don’t love his child but I’m sure what he got isn’t what he exspected. You all can act as if you’re in denail all u want but you know how these things go down in the black community. Black people(especially men) in biracial relationships or in relationships with light skinned black people aren’t always there JUST for the love; there is a lot of superficial things that go along with it.
So with that, I’ll say it again if Heidi and Seal get a surprise like Kimora and Djimon and have a chocolate baby, Seal will be as disappointed as Djimon. These men don’t want replicas of themselves. Beleive me, though they won’t admit it.
You all can get mad but I’m not trying to be mean I’m just telling some truths that we as black people don’t want to admit.
You have no idea who these people are, and yet you profess to know what’s going on in their minds.
And the only one who sounds disappointed that Djimon and Kimora’s child came out “dark” (and imo he’s not that dark) is YOU!
Get a grip and take a moment to analyze your insecurities, because they are screaming throughout your post.
Wow ignorant comments I see about whether or not Djimon wanted a dark skin child. This is the same man who bought dark skinned African dolls for Kimora’s daughter.
Some people get in relationships because they love each other, not because they want to lighten the flock…
In my personal opinion, if you don’t personally know Djimon Honsou, then I don’t think that’s a fair thing to say about him. His baby is beautiful and he looks quite proud.
The parents have both modeled for a living. The concensus is that they are two beautiful people and they produced a beautiful baby together. Obviously Kimora wanted her baby to look like his father or she wouldn’t have had a baby with this man.
Look at the precious jewel that love brought about.
That’s so sad for u to try and fix ur mouth to say what u think the “black community” thinks about the reason why they date out their race if u knew anything kls isn’t just asian she’s black to so how far is he going out of his race to have a light child if that was the case im sure he’d have a white women and 2 Sean was set up on a blind date so speak what u know. Ur Dad must be disappointed in the way u came out.
BCKAY have you looked at his 2 boys henry already looks just like his father
bckay u crazy.. how the hell could anyone be disapointed with that beautiful lil baby kenzo, do he look disapointed to you? he wud probly be mad as hell if he saw the words you jus put in his mouth u should feel ashame, its people like you who make so much issue of dark skin that make it an ongoing subject… try to just see people, not colour
That baby (kenzo) is gorgeous. There is NO reason watsoever that Djimon would be disapointed. You are wrong for saying that and you know it, you should be ashamed. I understand your point, but you don’t know him. You don’t know that he is as affected by colorism in the Black community as you are.
@ bCKAY
Hannaboo, Kenzo is beautiful, if Djimon or anyone else is angry at what I’ve written, it’s because they know I told the truth. I don’t make an issue of dark or light skin, it’s black people as a whole who makes it an issue. Look at the men of our community and the women whom they choose to love is often based on their skin color. I always try to support that what is ignored and seen negativly in our community and often times the negativity comes from black people in the black community.
You can’t read what I’ve written about Djimon and the baby etc and not see the point I was making. The things I’ve written are things that happens in the black community you all just don’t want to admit it. You all know these things are true, u just never heard anyone say it and you don’t want anyone to say these things and bring them up.
Ignoring these hard and SHAMEFUL truths that goes on in our comm isn’t going to help the problem. What you said about try to see people and not color, I do. You should tell the men and sometimes women in our comm that. I’m not a color stuck person, but at the same time, I don’t mind telling the TRUTH about how some of us judge when it comes to color in OUR comm. I shouldn’t feel ashamed at what I wrote, some in the black comm should be ashamed at how they see color.
Cassie, I don’t think Henry looks just like his father and I’m sure Seal is happy that his son don’t have his dark skin.
Do u all think that Seal and Djimon would marry and have children with women that has the same skin tone as them?
You already know my answer.
BCKay, You’re punking us, right? You’re just trying to infuse some contraversy, right?
You can’t be serious. Are you college educated? No.. for real . Are you?
College educated people say some messed up stuff too - if not more so, so that ain’t got nothing to do with it.
I think Seal married Heidi because she’s white.
Djimon may have color issues, I can’t tell yet. But I think maybe… MAYBE… he likes Kimora because he actually like Kimora.
Kimoras kids by Russel look black and I wouldn’t consider them ‘light skinned’ either. So if Djimon was taking the color of his kid into consideration before hand, he would see Kimora kids by Russel and knew that maybe his kid would be dark or darker than than them. So I don’t think color was a consideration for Djimon.
What is ‘colorism.’ I assume you are not black.
The term ‘colorism’ is sort of ‘racism’ found among the African American and dark skinned people of the diaspara (Africa, Latin America, India). It is not in the dictionary. Simply put - it a divisive dividing line among light and lighter skinned black folks compared to darker and darker skinned black folks. Typically, lighter skin has been hailed as being better - more attractive, higher achieving, and more socially acceptable than dark and darker skin. It generally came about during slavery when slave masters procreated with black women and produced lighter skinned black children.
Because the lighter skinned children were often the offspring of slave masters, slave masters treated them better and found them more socially acceptable than darker (considered more african) black people. The lighter and closer to white you were, the better off you seem to be. This form of ‘colorism’ was used as a divisive tactic among slave masters to keep their slaves docile, in line, and to keep them from uprising. This sort of divisiveness continues to this day as many black and dark skinned people of the diaspora continue to have issues with dark and light skin, as well as hair texture (the straighter the better, the nappier the worser it is thought.
I find it ironic that the people who produced ‘colorism’ in this society and others (white people) claim not to know what it is. But that’s not surprising.
Now you gotta clue. Run with it.
I’m sorry, but that’s NO excuse “BCKay”. Nobody denies that the African-American community has various complex issues & factors regarding complexion and image, but so do OTHER ethnic communities. There are fierce colorism problems within the Latino community, Indian community, Caribbean community, etc. However, does the fact that a good deal of ethnicities are impacted by white “beauty standards” CHANGE the fact that there are still hundreds of millions of people of color who are darn proud of their children, no matter what color they are? Can we automatically assume that every Black father or mother who has a spouse of a different race and/or color immediately hangs their head in mortification when their child comes out with a dark complexion? A little realism goes a long way: there are MANY Black people who love, are delighted over, and are extremely proud of their children no matter what color they are. That’s what makes them a PARENT–loving their child because they are indeed their child, and not because of the amount of melanin in their child’s skin. For anyone to state as absolute fact what you did about Honson, I personally believe is wrong, for the simple fact that you don’t know him and don’t know what he is thinking.
I love hedi and her family. I think it is so wonderful to see such a big family with a mixture of everything. The children are so well loved. I know their little girl is gonna be a cutie.
Pisces, Do you live in america and are u black? Because if u can’t understand the things I’m talking about u must not be apart of the black community in this country. I’m not trying to infuse contraversy i’m infusing truth and i can see some of you don’t like it.
NikNa, I don’t have any insecurities beleive me I don’t unlike some in our comm. I’m just saying things that aren’t usually said about what goes on in black america. I know it’s hard for u all to hear, but it doesn’t make what i’ve been saying not true.
I do beleive Kenzo is a beautiful child I’ve said it on this blog and others, what I’ve been saying isn’t so much about Kenzo, it’s more about colorism in our community. Why do you think some thought the baby was ugly, which he isn’t? It’s because even some bloggers were caught by surprise, they too was exspecting one thing and got another.
Noone wants their dirty laundry out for others to see and hear and colorism in the blk comm is part of our dirty laundry.
Some of u are probably guilty of or know someone who’s guilty of the things I’ve written about and now trying to get upset because I stated things that people only express in their actions more so than their words.
I love my black people and don’t judge them mainly on their skin tones but many of us can’t say this and actually mean it.
What is colorism?
You can’t be serious. Are you college educated? No.. for real . Are you?
Yes I am. I have 2 Masters degrees and I know that “colorism” as opposed to racism is not a word found in the dictionary in the context you used it in in your semi-literate post here!
Don’t be so hyper-sensitive. Just go to school! You’ll be alright!
She stays so small during pregnancy. LOVE this family.
American/western society is much more tolerant of dark skinned black males than females, example, Michael Jordan, Tyson Beckford, Seal versus dark skinned females such as Venus and Serena Williams. I think a lot of people have an aversion to typically African features on females than males, as light skin, small/thin features and straight hair on women are seen as more desirable and “feminine” in general, whether the women are black, latino, asian, white.
A black male relative married a white woman and commented at a reunion last summer that when they have children he wanted his son to look like him and his daughter to look like her mother because he doesn’t believe african features look attractive on females. It is so sad that a lot of black men in my own family as well as those I’ve encountered in passing have this mentality.
On the other big celeb baby site so many people have commented that they can’t wait to see what Heidi and Seal’s girl will look like and it seems a common thread that people are hoping that the girl will look more like Heidi as opposed to having more/any of Seal’s African features - but they would never say it like that, but it’s like it’s almost implied that that is what they are thinking.
I do believe that this couple are genuinely in love and committed to each other and their children, and their children are beautiful.
leni is so cute
BCKAY, u are right in some ways but wrong for commenting on Kimora’s husband being disappointed in the son’s complexion. African Americans do have some real issues with complexion and bigger issues with features. On the whole eurocentric features (thin nose, slanted eyes, thin lips and straight hair) are praised. Whereas, broad noses and big lips are not. Kimora’s son looks a little Native American to me. But on the whole who cares??
I really hope that Heidi’s little girl comes out dark and looks just like daddy. There is a little known secret in the Black community that dark kids are some how less than. If they are dark with black features it’s a double blow (big nose, wide hips, kinky hair, big lips). A lot of black men want kids that look eurocentric and so they look for women that can give them those types of kids. Black women today are simply undesirable. now more than ever because all of the professional sports players and actors gravitate to “other” out of fear of black looking children. People do harp on Venus and Serena mainly because of their complexion which is not cool. I wish we’d get past the color of skin. but i know black men AND women who will drop a black in a second if “other” came along.
Djimon has strong african genes. Also, Kimora Lee’s ethnicity is that she is 1/4 korean, 1/4 japanese and 1/2 african american. Her father is african american, her mother is 1/2 japanese and 1/2 korean. Their new baby boy is beautiful, his complexion and all.
I am african american, my grandfather was 1/2 white his father was 100% white. My mother and her 8 siblings were all very fair. My grandmother, their mother was brown skin. None of the children had hair like their father who had beatiful red hair and grey eyes. The grandchildren and great grandchildren have the traits, blue eyes, grey eyes, beautiful hair. You never know what your children are going to look like. My sister is fair complexion, I am a beautiful brown skin. The most important thing is that the children are born with 2 arms, 2 legs, 2 working eyes and a right mind. Kenzel Lee Hounsou is a beautiful baby, beautiful complexion and a much loved baby. Djimon Hounsou appears to me to be a much HUMBLE MAN who is not interested in the color of the babies skin. Remember, Djimon Hounsou is AFRICAN and Kimora Lee is 1/2 AFRICAN AMERICAN.
God bless that beautiful family

Wow…is all I can say
Anthropologists have long discovered that the human race as we know it today, originated in Africa with “Lucy”.
Maybe it’s more palatable or believable if you realize it was Caucasian anthropologists that discovered Lucy. Even Whites own their African DNA if they are enlightened. Unlike some contemporary Blacks.
I would also like to take this opportunity to thank my White brethren for inventing the automobile, toilet, and toilet paper, among other modern inventions, that make life a joy!
Henry looks just like his dad..
