'No One Needed to See That': Heidi Klum, 51, Rips off Top, Exposing Bra in Front of Interviewer & Igniting Discussion

Heidi Klum brought the heat to "Hot Ones" in more ways than one. The German supermodel's unexpected and bold move shocked viewers, igniting a whirlwind of mixed reactions from netizens.

Heidi Klum turned up the heat on the popular YouTube series "Hot Ones," causing a stir both on set and online. During the June 20 episode, Heidi made a surprising move in front of host Sean Evans by stripping a piece of her stylish outfit.

Appearing in an all-denim outfit, the 51-year-old supermodel faced the fiery challenge head-on. The turning point came when she bit into a wing coated in Red Flag hot sauce, boasting a Scoville level of 126,000.

As she savored the wing, she humorously shared her concerns about keeping her lipstick intact. "I have to tell you for days I've been thinking don't get like a crack in your lip you know because sometimes you have a little thing and you want to pull it off and you're like I'm doing hot wings nothing can be pulled off right," said Heidi.

Heidi another chicken wing with Da Bomb hot sauce with 135, 600 Scoville level. The heat soon became overwhelming, leading Heidi to chug a bottle of buttermilk, attempting to cool down. "I thought buttermilk would do the trick," she admitted. But the relief was short-lived.

Feeling increasingly uncomfortable, Heidi spontaneously unbuttoned her denim shirt, revealing her red bra underneath. "I'm getting hot," she said.

Heidi stripping off left Sean visibly surprised. She later told Sean that the Da Bomb hot sauce was a "kicker" and she candidly asked him how long the burning sensation would last, to which he replied, "Five to ten minutes."

Stripped down to her bra, Heidi completed the challenge by eating the last two chicken wings: one with Peppers Up hot sauce, which has a Scoville level of 700,000, and the other with The Last Dab Xperience hot sauce, with a Scoville level of 2,693,000.

Heidi's bold move quickly became a hot topic online. "She really didn't need to take her too off showing her bra no one needed to see that [sic]," commented a user who felt the move was unnecessary.

Echoing similar sentiments, another viewer said, "Of course she had that whole reveal planned hoping it would garner more publicity." An ageist remark also crept into the discourse as one said Heidi is "Getting old."

Another suggested that Heid looked desperate for the spotlight, "Not Necessary but she needs 100% attention given to her [sic]." A more critical voice added, "She's become a 'look at me' person. No need, we've seen it too many times."

However, not everyone shared this critical perspective. Some defended Heid, noting her background as a Victoria's Secret model. "Well she was a VS model and walked the runway in bras when she was a angel [sic]," a fan pointed out.

Fans of the supermodel were quick to rally to her defense, celebrating her fearless personality. A supporter said, "I love her. She's a model for gosh sakes. She's worn less then that. She's fun. I love how she got Sean all flustered [sic]."

"Heidi Klum absolutely destroyed Hot Ones, wow what an absolute banger guest [sic]," gushed another, clearly impressed by her charisma and confidence.

The playful side of the internet also found humor in the situation. "Heidi Klum taking her shirt off in the middle of her Hot Ones interview is only something a former VS Angel could get away with, I swear [sic]. 😂" one quipped.

"Heidi Klum Hot Ones episode might be the funniest one after Conan's [sic]," another enthused, appreciating the entertaining value she brought to the show.

Heidi Klum's spicy adventure on "Hot Ones" not only added another memorable moment to her career but also highlighted her fun, spontaneous personality, keeping her firmly in the spotlight.

Heidi has always been comfortable with her body. In a September 2023 interview with People, she mentioned, "I'm super comfortable naked today." She humorously added that her kids sometimes remind her to cover up when friends visit.

She clarified, "As soon as someone is coming, I put my top on. But if no one is there, sun's out, bums out." Heidi revealed she goes topless to avoid tan lines, as she wears many different outfits and finds the technique "very strategic."

Reflecting on her modeling journey, Heidi noted, "I guess looking back, I was much thinner than I am today." She explained that this was due to her more intense exercise routine back then, including running and jogging. She has also led a relaxed lifestyle, especially since meeting her husband Tom Kaulitz.

From charming fans on "Hot Ones" to being comfortable in her own skin throughout her modeling career, Heidi's confidence has always shone through. This same confidence is evident in her daughter Leni, who is now following in her footsteps, highlighting Heidi's lasting influence.

Last May, Leni appeared at the amfAR Cannes Gala in France wearing an outfit that left tongues wagging. She wore a long black fishnet dress with black ruffles accentuating the bust and waist.

The off-the-shoulder dress, complete with sleeves, was elegantly paired with a diamond necklace. Leni styled her hair in a chic half-up, half-down look.

The 20-year-old's makeup was also a fan favorite. She opted for light shadow on her lids, enhancing her blue eyes with black eyeliner. The rest of her face was kept simple with a hint of blush and a pink nude lip.

Commenters could not get enough of her makeup. “Most beautiful,” remarked one netizen. “So, so beautiful,” added another. One commenter even believed Leni outshone her mother but had mixed feelings about her makeup, “God, what a beauty! Mom tried her best! Makeup… unusual. Eyebrows: top class!” they expressed.

Leni and her mother captured everyone's attention when they walked the red carpet at the event. Since then, videos of them have surfaced online, and fans can't stop gushing over the mother-daughter duo.

Heidi matched her daughter’s ruffles but opted for a more dramatic look. Her gown was fully ruffled with an asymmetric silhouette and a long train. She kept her blonde hair down, showcased her long model legs, and completed the look with metallic shoes.

Viewers were ecstatic to see Heidi and her daughter walk the red carpet. “Heidi and Leni OMG, absolutely stunning,” expressed an Instagram user. Another person shared the same sentiment, adding, “They are so iconic and amazing. I have great admiration.”

Leni might have stolen the show with her confident strut, but internet users still thought she got her looks from her mother. One conflicted commenter wrote, “I was going to say she looked prettier than mom... and Heidi is stunning.”

It's no surprise that Leni can confidently walk the red carpet with several cameras around her. Watching her mother inspired her to pursue a career in modeling.

Leni still remembered the excitement she felt when she was first noticed in a store. She was very young then, so Heidi quickly shut down the idea. However, at 16, Leni was allowed to explore her talent.

Luckily, Leni has the full support of her parents as she embarks on her modeling journey. Her father proudly expressed how proud he is of her. Besides what she has achieved thus far, Seal is in awe of the young woman he has raised.

He said, "But I'm more proud of everything that she is. She walks through life with this type of humility that allows her to move so gracefully through it all, and she has an innate understanding of people in general and people's feelings. So I'm kind of more impressed with everything that she is."
