Bundchen Blows It

Gisele Bundchen has thrown many men under the bus, and in early November was doing the same to the U.S. currency.

Gisele Bündchen is the world’s richest model, and to stay that way she is insisting that she be paid in almost any currency but the U.S. dollar......When Bündchen, 27, signed a contract in August to represent Pantene hair products for Procter & Gamble, she demanded payment in euros, according to Veja, the biggest weekly magazine in Brazil. She will also get euros for the deal she reached last October with Dolce & Gabbana to promote the fragrance The One, Veja reported.

“Contracts starting now are more attractive in euros because we don’t know what will happen to the dollar,” Patrícia Bündchen, the model’s twin sister and manager, said in September. She declined to discuss details of the arrangements last week, as did Anne Nelson, Bündchen’s agent at IMG Models in New York. IHT

While there later was some question whether or not she actually was requesting to be paid in Euros, the timing of the comments were unfortunate, and the dollar has now appreciated against the Euro since the comments were made public. Aand it would seem that Gisele was not the only one caught piling on.

If Gisele knows how to cut her losses, she would be wise to dump Tom Brady as well.

For Gisele, dollar is not a model currency
