Where did it all go wrong?

And when something rocks the foundation of their relationship, it also rocks your belief in real celebrity love. The love that’s more glamorous and probably a lot better-looking than regular people love. It’s even worse when it happens to couples you think have got it all figured out. I’m still reeling from Tim Robbins and Susan Sarandon‘s break-up years after the fact. And if Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson ever divorce, or Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn stop doing whatever the hell they’re doing, I’m going to be inconsolable…for a period of time.

Not that Heidi Klum and Seal are in the Hanks-Wilson league, but news that Heidi is planning on filing for divorce from her loving water mammal after almost seven years of marriage — an eternity really, for while bright and hot, celebrity love burns out ever so quickly — still fills me with a pang of regret.  According to TMZ, Klum is citing “irreconcilable differences” and will file the papers as early as next week.

Klum and Seal’s elaborate Halloween costumes, yearly vow renewals and rabbit-like breeding  – seriously, when has Heidi not been pregnant on a season of Project Runway? — always pointed to signs of a stable (by celebrity standards) and happy marriage. And now it’s all — allegedly — coming to the end. Sigh. I just wanted those two crazy kids to stay togetha’.

Stephanie Seymour (July 23, 1968) As a muse for the late Richard Avedon, Stephanie Seymour created some of the best fashion photographs of the 90s, then upped the iconic ante when she strolled down the aisle as Axl Rose‘s bride (the two were dating at the time) in Guns and Roses‘ classic “November Rain” video. Though supermodels appearing in music videos was nothing new in 1992, very few looked as perfect as Seymour in that epic wedding dress. Perhaps a little too rock & roll for a royal wedding, but I would at least consider it, Kate Middleton.

Claudia Schiffer (Aug. 25, 1970) Reminiscent of a young Bridget Bardot, Claudia Schiffer’s sultry good looks catapulted her to supermodeldom in the early 90s. Though she made a comeback in a series of gorgeous ads for Salvatore Ferragamo in 2007, don’t expect to see Schiffer on a runway anytime soon; the German stunner maintains that she’s “very shy.” I’m the same way until I get a little liquor in me, hence, we just need to booze up Claudia and throw her — heels first — onto that catwalk. ASAP.

Heidi Klum (June 1, 1973) The ultimate Victoria’s Secret Angel, Klum hung up her wings for good in 2010 to focus on her thriving businesses: in addition to producing the Peabody Award-winning Project Runway (yeah, Heidi Klum has a Peabody), Klum has tried her hand at design, acting, painting not to mention re-populating the world with the help of her virile husband Seal…seriously, Heidi’s been pregnant nonstop for like the past ten years. I’m just going to say it, someone needs to separate those two.

Kate Moss (Jan. 16 1974) The kittenish face of “Heroin Chic,” Kate Moss’ arrival in 1990 sparked a sweeping change in the world of modeling. The glamazons of the 80s and early 90s now seemed outdated compared to the 5’7 Moss when she appeared in The Face magazine, shot by the late Corrine Day. Notoriously private — she rarely gives interviews — Kate Moss is still the most ubiquitous face in modeling of the past twenty years. As a regular in ad campaigns and a favorite muse for many photographers, Moss also practically owns the cover of British Vogue. Despite her amazing career, Kate has had her share of ups and downs…both fueled heavily by cocaine.

Tyra Banks (Dec. 4, 1973) Tyra Banks started off a rail-thin high fashion model before morphing into a voluptuous swimsuit cover girl, then a Victoria’s Secret Angel, then a fat-ass Emmy-winning talk show host and the professional smizer/creator of the now international Top Model series; in short, she is the ultimate model as mogul. And while I and a generation of other girls have learned everything we know about modeling from Ms. Banks (admittedly it took me a while to figure out how to find my light), she still has a few tricks up her sleeve (or in this case, turban), such as this shot from Vogue Italia’s iconic “Black Issue.”

Gisele (July 20, 1980) The last of the true supermodels, Gisele came along during the wave of Brazilian bombshells in the late 90s. With her athletic body and distinctive horse trot, she’s stayed at the top of the model heap for the past ten years, earning the one-name recognition to which all supers are entitled. Though there are several heirs to the throne (Karlie Kloss, Chanel Iman, Coco Rocha, Hilary Rhoda, Agyness Deyn, Anja Rubik, Jessica Stam, the list goes on and on…), the queen is not abdicating anytime soon.

The crazy part of it all is that the Fashion Indie/Lookbooks team were partying it up at LAVO (same venue as Klum’s party) on Friday night. I think the closest I came to being there was following awesome designer Kerin Rose on Twitter. Guests included Kim Kardashian, Rebecca Minkoff, and Christian Siriano.

Now I promise this to myself and the whole damn internet that if I am not invited to this party next year that I am crashing the shit out of it!

Every time a model gets pregnant, an angel loses her wings. After 13 years, Heidi Klum is no longer carrying a Secret. The model turned host turned MILF will no longer be seen strutting down the runway with the likes of Chanel Iman and Alessandria Ambrosio. I would say she would be missed, but then again, I’m already over her.

Guess they're going for full-time babymaking. At the rate these two are going, they could repopulate the world after a weekend in the Bahamas with a six pack of Arbor Mist.

In the Fashion Indie offices, when we here the words “sex tape” we get giddy with excitement.  Since there has been a lack of them coming out recently, we took it upon ourselves to compile our favorite couples we would like to see “getting busy.” Everyone knows not every sex tape  is good to watch, that being said we decided to split the list up into ones you really want to see and ones just too creepy to not look at.

The Ones You Want To See:

Gisele Bundchen and Tom Brady

She’s a Victoria Secret model and he is an hot Superbowl winning quarterback. (Who wouldn’t want to see these two hotties “doing the do”) These two are so hot I’m sure they’ve left a few hotel beds steaming. It might be harder for these two to film a sex tape now since they just welcomed a baby into the world but, after seeing Gisele’s post baby pictures it’s obvious she found a way to burn off the baby weight.

Marc Jacobs and Lorenzo Martone

I think I had something really witty to write until this picture left me  breathless. Designer Marc Jacobs and his partner Lorenzo Martone make for a very attractive couple. I don’t care if you’re gay, straight, bi, or asexual this would be a sex tape to be seen and viewed many times. We do actually like both these guys for their talents but they are some serious eye candy.

Heidi Klum and Seal

This couple really makes me smile. (Partly because I think of how adorable they look together, but mostly I wonder how they look like in the buff.) These two need to hop on the sex tape bandwagon ASAP because everyone is waiting. I just hope they make one when Heidi isn’t pregnant, which seems like she always is. (We’re not that kinky.)

Miranda Kerr and Orlando Bloom

Yes, another model and Victoria Secret Angel has made our list. (Maybe that’s her secret.) From the above picture you can tell that the public was so close to getting a glimpse of the two “knocking boots.” We hope that these two stay together for a while just so the opportunity of them having a sex tape released is still around. I feel like they would role play where he is the pirate looking for some booty. (Too much?)

Beyonce and Jay Z

Let’s be honest with ourselves, the main reason we want to see this is for the grand diva, Beyonce. After watching her new commercials for her fragrance “Heat,” I know I am left hot and bothered. These two have so much energy on stage that it would be interesting to see if they bring the same passion and intensity to the bedroom.

The Ones You Can’t Help  But Watch:

Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick

Now we absolutely love these two (Honestly!), but if these guys made a sex tape I don’t know how good it would be.  They seem like the couple I would love to see about the town and at premieres, but never in bed. The only sex between these guys that I am interested in is the new Sex and the City 2 movie, especially after watching this trailer.

Karl Lagerfeld and Any Paid Escort

Everyone knows that Uncle Karl loves to hire escorts, in fact that why he made our is of top pervs. I shutter to think of any sex tape like this leaking out. I don’t doubt that it will be fashionable but I would need a barf bag near buy. (Maybe Chanel should invest in making some condoms with the famous “C’s” on them. (I’m sorry, I just threw up a little)

Rachel Zoe and Rodger Berman

Honestly, it’s hard to come up with reasons that this sex tape would even be remotely good. I can see it now: Rachel just laying across the bed in nothing but a fur with at blackberry in hand while yelling at Roger cause his Versace banana hammock doesn’t match his socks. (Sorry for the mental picture) This sex tape is really for anyone who has a fetish for chicly dressed skeletons.

Pamela Anderson and Richie Rich

Obviously we know that these two are not an item, but they are butt buddies. In fact I don’t even think is is physically possible for these two to even have sex together, let alone make a sex tape. (Contrary to the title picture) We’ve already seen Pam flaunting her sexcapades on camera before, but if they ever did one together I’m am sure eyes would be pulled out.

Lady Gaga and Herself

This wouldn’t be a list without Lady Gaga. Now there’s no one that can make a sex tape with Gaga besides herself because honestly no one can compare with her. I would imagine her sex tape not to be sexy at all but look more like a fashion and pop orgasm. It would become an instant hit like “Two Girls One Cup” but with more McQueen.

On her love for dressing up with hubby Seal: “I’m not big on costumes in bed, to be honest. I wouldn’t say no if he wanted to try, but it seems so inorganic. Maybe it’ll come later – in 5 or 10 years, I’ll start buying funny outfits. But for now, we’re nice and spicy in that department.”

On moving to New York to work as a model: “I could not get a job to save my life. I was in a s—-y apartment, I didn’t know anybody, and my English was terrible. But it was my last stop, so I thought if I just try harder – if I just stick around a little longer. I didn’t want to go home having failed.”

Every year, Heidi and Seal renew their vows in front of friends and family in a new and generally funny way. Last year, the theme was ‘white trash’ for which Heidi’s hair was in cornrows, Seal wore a mullet wig and their preacher was dressed like Elvis. This year: “It’s going to be all brides and all grooms, all of the women will be brides and all of the men will be grooms.”

Thanks Modelina!

Heidi Klum has decided that after popping out Seal’s hundredth spawn she’s gotten enough the singers “Love Divine” in her to warrant a name change. Say hello to Heidi Samuel.

Sidenote, did you know that her husband’s real name is Seal Henry Olusegun Olumide Adelo Samuel? Short and sweet.

Is “White Trash Chic” the latest craze or is it just plain crazy?

With the renewed vows of Heidi Klum and Seal on our minds (the two had a trashtastic ceremony, that’s Seal in a mullet and Heidi with cornrows above), we were starting to wonder if trailer park is the newest fashion trend. Pipeline answered our questions with a feature on the latest white trash inspired collections and photo shoots which have hit the glossies and runways recently. From A.Wang to Westwood, Marie Claire to Julia Restoin-Roitfel, it seems that the new money is down for looking like they ain’t got none.
