That picture is incredible- they look so perfect! But then Tom goes and ruins it with another bad outfit or hairdo and his poor wife gets the blame!
I know ^ such is life for a star athlete's wife ^. They get the blame for everything 
(if he wins its because shes good luck, if he loses its because shes bad luck). They blamed her for his hair at the met gala 2012, when inreality he just came from his V MAN shoot with Testino.
I like sports but just cant with sports fanatics. Gisele will be getting harassed on her twitter tonight. Good thing its mostly her team who runs it.

Another quote from Testino From the Boston event he had last year, a blogger reported what he had to say about Gi.
"I met her when she was 17 at a casting in New York. I thought someone had turned on the light when she walked in. I kept telling people, "I have this girl!" They weren't so sure. Then, a year later, all the people who weren't so sure had to have her! She has no problems, skin, hands...she's been gifted. And on top of it she's kind and energetic." She's a hard worker. She (looks at a picture) says, "I can do it better!" She brings energy. You can either be blank or you can be inquisitive and bring a whole new light. She brings a light."

A little interview from The Oral B event
Gisele Bündchen fumbled to sit at an event in Sao Paulo on Tuesday (10), because of the short dress Designer Patricia Bonaldi. "Nice and easy. People, you are seeing a lot of stuff in there? I'm a married woman. I trust you, my friends! ", she joked with photographers and journalists who was in their sights. Moments before, to break the ice, the supermodel had simulated a dance.
Enjoy the fanpage of iG People on Facebook and receive news of the famous
To publicize the new dental whitening which is poster girl, Gisele participated in a chat with the presenter of "GNT Fashion Lilian Pacce, in which she talked about the new year and described the sensation of being in Brazil. "Being here is wonderful, I feel at home."
New Year's Eve
On the eve of 2014, Gisele said she sees the new year as a change of mind and believes in renewal. "That's a lot full of hope, a mix of renewal. It's a chance to close things that I don't want in my life and focus on new opportunities. It doesn't matter that it's only one day apart. It's a day, but it's the thought that changes, "she said.
Letters to herself
The top model has a tradition that repeats every new year since adolescence. "I often write letters to myself. It's like a meditation. I reflect on all the things I've done in the previous year and think about all the challenges I've been through, all the joys we had in the past year and write what I want conquer next year will come. Make a sentence with this letter. It gives Me energy, "she explained.
The white color for the new year, very common in Brazil, also has meaning in the life of Gisele. "It's a color that brings me a lot of peace. Every time I see white gives me calm, peace, purity. It is always good because it reminds me good things, "he said.
"Life is not ' I'm going to get there '. Life is now "
Gisele makes a ritual every beginning of year to perfect with the learnings acquired over time. "I try to read the letters from past years. It is very nice to read what I had planned, which charmed her, the goals that I have reached where I improved as a person, how can I be a better daughter, person, mother. This is the most important thing for me. Everything in your life you work. The values change with the passage of years. Today, I try to live every moment. Life is not ' I'm going to get there '. I think how can I enjoy my life in every way and get there too. But life is now, "philosophized.
New year's in family
Still talking about 2014, Gisele commented that prefers to spend the new year's Eve without any major celebrations. "I'm a person who likes to stay at home with his family. I like to be more quiet. But I have attended many parties too. I have 14 years, huh, guys? ", did she. "It depends on the company. I think it's more important you spend with the person you love, because the rest is rest, "he added.
"I'd love to really be able to choose the place where I spend new year's Eve"
Not only is Gisele Bündchen's agenda that is packed. The husband, the football player Tom Brady, prevents the couple choose different routes every year. "I'd love to really be able to choose the place where I spend new year's Eve, but my husband plays during the new year, so I've been in Boston," he said. "I would love to pass Brazil on the beach. In the next few years it's not going to happen, but once he retires, bring to the Brazil and make him jump ripples on the sea ", promised, to laughter.
In conversation, she remembered a new year's Eve special. "In 2005 I went with a group of friends. We did a retreat, stayed three days in silence. Like those rituals. I realized I was in charge of my life. All decisions were my actions ".
2013 keyword: "Gratitude"
The most successful model in recent years thanks to the good moments of your life. "I have gratitude in your heart for everything that happened to me. Is the word of the year, "he said.
Promises for 2014
Despite having already done their orders for next year, Gisele preferred to maintain the mystery. "I have several promises for 2014, but I can't tell because if it doesn't happen. First I'm going to do, then you're going to see, "said she, who still asked for" humanity to look at herself and act with love in your heart "for years to come.
It turns out that Jennifer Aniston — aka one of the biggest hairstyle icons of our day — has a few celebrity hair crushes of her own. In an interview with Parade magazine, she said, "I think Gisele [bündchen] has exquisite hair. That's a pretty envious head of hair. I love Kate Moss. She always has great hair."
Perhaps Jennifer misses her long locks since she recently chopped off her length in favor of a chic bob. Jennifer, Gisele, and Kate all have some of the best hair in Hollywood, but we want you to fess up and tell us whose mane you love the most in the poll below!

Tom Brady’s Son Ben Steals Show From Father On National Radio Broadcast
http://boston.cbslocal.com/2013/12/13/tom-bradys-son-ben-makes-surprise-appearance-on-national-radio-show/Tom Brady’s three-year-old son Ben made a surprise appearance on national radio Thursday night and stole the show from his father.
During Tom Brady’s weekly call-in to the Westwood One Radio NFL Thursday Night Football pre-game show, host Jim Gray asked Brady what his children wanted for Christmas.
Ben happened to be near his father, so Tom Brady put his son on the phone to talk to Gray.
Brady turned to his son and said “Benny, wenny,” to get him to come to the phone.
“Hi Mister Gray,” Ben said.
Gray asked him, “What have you told Santa you want for Christmas?”
“A robot,” Ben replied. “I want a battle car.”
“Anything else?” Gray asked.
“I want all the kids to have Christmas,” he told Gray.
Tom Brady then got back on the phone and talked about how the Bradys have twice dropped off letters to Macy’s Letters to Santa program to benefit the Make-A-Wish program.
If you or your children are interested, kids of all ages can drop their stamped letters, addressed to “Santa At The North Pole” in the Santa Mail letterbox at their local Macy’s.
For each letter received through December 24, Macy’s will donate $1 to Make-A-Wish, up to $1 million.
For more information, visit Macy’s website.

Interview translated by bing ( I think bing is much better then google lately)
Gisele Bündchen, 33 years, did a lightning passage by Brazil this week. After parading with exclusivity for the Colcci, in the latest edition of the São Paulo Fashion Week, the top returned to São Paulo to celebrate the Union of his brand of lingerie, Gisele Bündchen Intimates, with the NK Store, multibrand entrepreneur Natalie Klein.
— Worked a long time in this thread and I understand and like more and more of lingeries. I thought it might be fun to have my own line — explains the template, which for years has held the coveted rank of angel of Victoria's Secret.
— Gisele has a very refined aesthetic sense, and this was reflected in the collection. Are sophisticated parts, but at the same time usable — praises Natalie.
In an interview with her, the top, married to the football player Tom Brady, with whom he has two children (Benjamin, 4 years, and Vivian Lake, 1 year), spoke openly about the overuse of Photoshop, family, career and good shape.
How do you inspire to create Intimates?
I love throb and give my special touch. I work more on visual and creative side, seek cool references that has already seen somewhere where I traveled or fashion references that can be aggregated to lingerie.
You draw the pieces or just going on the concept of the collection to his team of style?
I don't draw, I don't even have a deeper knowledge about sewing, but I follow everything. For me, the creative part is the most fun. I love to follow the whole process and view the lingerie taking shape, since the initial design, the composition of the fabrics, the details of modeling until proof of the piece itself. And what's great is that despite having accompanied all the work, in the end, generally amazed at the result.
What changed after 30 years? Yet it's easy to keep fit?
It's been a long time since I understood the importance of the practice of physical exercise and good nutrition are not only in our body, but especially in our health. After 30, your metabolism really changes a little, slow, and it takes even more consciousness than put into his body. In life, all are choices. I chose to live in a healthier, and it also helps me keep in shape and have more available.
You've already positioned itself against the use of Photoshop. Why don't you like the manipulation of images?
I'm not against the use of Photoshop. My comment was only about overuse, which sometimes leaves us looking almost dolls. I personally prefer more natural images, but I also understand that the program is a great ally of the publicity of the modern world, which has optimized the time and eased a lot of work in this area. What I think is important to note that what appears in the media is not always the reality. And that a single image does not define who we are.
How can you reconcile the top career success with the roles of mother and housewife?
It is not easy to reconcile it all. Is a daily juggling. But with organization and planning it is possible to balance all sides. Also I think it's important to take time for myself, to recharge. So, I'm always right and I can do my best for my children, my husband, my work ... In every moment, I'm 100% present and short as possible.
You don't seem to suffer from harassment of the media and even publishes personal photos on Instagram. As you separate your private public life?
Since I started my modeling career, the media and the form of communication have changed enough. I've always been a private person, but over time, I realized that if people only know me for the things that are said in the media, would have no real notion of who I really am. Even so, recently, decided to expose in my social networks a little more about me and the things I value. That doesn't mean exposing my personal life, but sharing a bit of my essence.
And Vivian doing many jokes?
She is a very loving and gentle child. She loves being around and is always trying to lap. I'm loving being a MOM of a baby girl.
It's hard being married to a star of American football, since the schedules are tight?
A relationship requires constant attention and dedication. Six years ago, I moved to Boston so we can be together, since that's where he works. Concessions are part of relationships. But with love and respect, anything is possible.
How Gisele at home? You do market list, takes his oldest son to school, take care of the place?
Do all this, as anyone. I try to keep the House tidy and organized, I think this helps things flow better. I love being able to take my son to school and see his face with joy and also hear the stories after school. I have wanted to travel less and less to be able to enjoy my kids. I like to be present.
What is the secret to staying at the top for so many years?
I've always been extremely focused, determined and committed to my job. I think the choices made over the years were also important to draw my track record here.
thank you sooooo much! 
Nice interview! thank you for sharing
