Heidi Klum treated herself to an unconventional and cheeky high-carb rubdown on Tuesday, sharing the wild moment with her millions of followers. The German supermodel, aged 52, posted a video to her Instagram Stories that captured her receiving a nude massage while simultaneously indulging in a bowl of salty chips.
Klum's Unusual Relaxation Technique Goes Viral
The clip began with a close-up shot of Klum's leg as she lay face down, showcasing the masseuse's hands moving upward along her thigh and onto her toned glutes. A discreet sheet covered part of her body during the treatment. The camera then panned up to reveal the blonde beauty reaching into a bowl of chips, crunching away on the snack mid-massage.
Seal's ex-wife remained silent throughout the video, with only the sound of her munching chips breaking the silence. Klum, who has enjoyed several topless appearances over the summer months, captioned the playful video simply with the face savoring food emoji.
Fan Reactions Range from Envy to Humour
Followers quickly flooded the comments with amused and envious responses. One fan exclaimed that the runway superstar was 'Living the life!' while another admitted, 'I've never been jealous of potato chips before.' A third chimed in with, 'So jealous, I want a massage too, oh yeah and chips too,' and someone else noted, 'Eating potato chips? You crack me up!'
Several fans speculated whether the masseuse might be her husband, Tom Kaulitz, aged 36. One asked directly, 'Is that tom kaulitz?' while another observed, 'it’s not Tom though...' This racy clip follows Klum's numerous topless appearances with Kaulitz during their summer vacation in St. Barts.
Klum's Comfort with Nudity and Beach Lifestyle
The America's Got Talent alum has frequently ditched her bra during sunny beach days with her partner. During one recent outing, the age-gap couple demonstrated their enduring affection, unable to keep their hands off each other. Klum threw her red-manicured hands around her husband while kissing him in the ocean, showcasing their strong bond.
Klum and Kaulitz, who tied the knot on February 22, 2019, will celebrate their seventh wedding anniversary in just a few weeks. They got engaged after one year of dating and exchanged vows in a private ceremony aboard a luxury yacht.
Background on Klum's Personal Life and Views
Previously married to British singer Seal from 2005 to 2014, Klum shares three sons with her ex-husband: Henry, 20, Johan, 19, and Lou, 16. During their marriage, the 62-year-old music artist also adopted her daughter Leni, now 21, when she was just five years old.
In a 2024 interview with Daily Mail, Klum explained her comfort with nudity, stating she 'grew up with a lot of nudity' and encourages others to strip off on the beach. She remarked, 'It's so funny how many people talk about that,' referring to fan reactions to her topless vacation photos, adding '[They] should try it sometime.'
The Project Runway alum clarified that when photos of her bare were taken, she was in locations where beach nudity isn't considered scandalous. 'Even though I am American, I'm also very much European, so I grew up with a lot of nudity on the beach,' she explained. 'So for me, this would be no big deal. Plus I was on a French island, and if you look around, most girls are topless, so it's just a very common thing.'
Klum reiterated her perspective, saying, 'So it's not like I'm doing something weird... and I always go to a beach when there's not a lot of people there. So I feel like I get into those things when no one is around.' Earlier this month, she and her husband braved the cold weather in New York after their PDA-packed trip to St. Barts, showing their adaptability to different environments.
