She can have it."In August, Heidi became the face of a new lingerie line for Victoria's Secret, which included a bra named 'The Body'.The German model said in the advertisement: "They call me 'The Body' and now I have one named after me."A spokesperson fro Elle - who has her own underwear and skincare empire worth £34 million - said at the time: "We were initially flabbergasted. "We have numerous press clipping in the office referring to her as 'The Body'. In terms of public record, that name belongs to Elle."(C) BANG Media International
