Yes, yes, I know, it is big news, right? When a supermodel gains some weight it's big news?

According to Brazilian gossip writer Anderson Antunes of Glamurama, Gisele Bundchen, now in her global model goddess-ness known simply as Gisele, gained 14 pounds in order to participate in Milan Fashion Week, which now has strict guidelines regarding models' weights and BMIs. If you recall, back in September, there was much ado about the nothingness of model's figures in Spain, which banned underweight models from the runways. Milan followed suit with a similar restriction, saying that it was trying to discourage eating disorders.

Are we surprised that Gisele packed on 14 pounds? It sounds like a lot, but not unusual for someone who claims to nosh on red meat and McDonald's burgers.
