Brazilian supermodel Gisele Bundchen is featured on the scorching cover of the Fall 2008 issue of V Magazine. The renowned Mario Testino captured the beauty (and her booty) in a ‘too hot to even look at’ spread which was shot back in April.
Gisele is featured in three different covers, to make sure all her ASSets are fairly displayed, with styling by Nicola Formichetti.
Gisele blames Testino for the ranuchy images, "Only Mario [Testino] could make me take these pictures… You know what he’s like… People are going to say my butt is showing too much in these but this is V Magazine! If you're going to do something like that, you do it for V.
As for how she fits in the fashion world, Gisele says in the interview, "I work in fashion but I'm not really a fashion person. I don't follow trends. I couldn't tell you which designer made that shoe or that bag. I like jeans. I like comfortable clothes. I'm all for feeling good in what you wear. I don’t do shows anymore, so I don't even know who is doing what now."
