She appeared on the cover of the ''[[Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue]]'' in 1998 and was the first German model to become a [[Victoria's Secret Angel]]. Following a successful modeling career, Klum became the host and a judge of ''[[Germany's Next Topmodel]]'' and the reality show ''[[Project Runway]]'', which earned her an [[Emmy]] nomination in 2008 and a win in 2013 for [[Outstanding Host for a Reality or Reality-Competition Program]] (shared with co-host [[Tim Gunn]]). Klum has been nominated for [[Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Host for a Reality or Reality-Competition Program|six Emmy Awards]]. She has worked as a spokesmodel for [[Dannon]] and [[H&M]] and has appeared in numerous commercials for [[McDonald's]], [[Volkswagen]], and others. In 2009, Klum became [[Barbie]]'s official ambassador on [[Barbie#50th anniversary|Barbie's 50th anniversary]]. As an occasional actress, she had supporting roles in movies including ''[[Blow Dry]]'' (2001) and ''[[Ella Enchanted (film)|Ella Enchanted]]'' (2004), and made cameo appearances in ''[[The Devil Wears Prada (film)|The Devil Wears Prada]]'' (2006), ''[[Perfect Stranger (film)|Perfect Stranger]]'' (2007) and ''[[Ocean's 8]]'' (2018). She has also made guest appearances on TV shows including ''[[Sex and the City]]'', ''[[How I Met Your Mother]]'', ''[[Desperate Housewives]]'' and ''[[Parks and Recreation]].'' From 2013 to 2019, and again from 2020 to 2024, Klum was featured as a judge on the [[NBC]] reality show ''[[America's Got Talent]]''. In May 2011, ''[[Forbes]]'' magazine estimated Klum's total earnings for that year as US$20 million. She was ranked second on ''Forbes''{{'}} list of the "[[Forbes list of the world's highest-paid models|World's Top-Earning Models]]". ''Forbes'' noted that since ending her 13-year run as a Victoria's Secret Angel, Klum has become more of a businesswoman than a model. In 2008, she became an American citizen while maintaining her native German citizenship.<ref name="naturalized">{{cite web |url=https://people.com/parents/heidi-klum-becomes-a-citizen-for-her-children/ |title=Heidi Klum Becomes a Citizen For Her Children |date=5 November 2008 |access-date=11 February 2019 |work=People |archive-date=12 February 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190212130823/https://people.com/parents/heidi-klum-becomes-a-citizen-for-her-children/ |url-status=live }}</ref><ref name=Cityist>{{cite web |url=http://www.cityist.com/features/heidi-klum/ |title=Solid Gold: In fashion, you are either in or you are out.
