Claudia Schiffer Says 'No More Runways'

If you've been hoping for a '90s supermodels runway reunion, don't hold your breath: at least one famous catwalker has said, never again.

"I am finished with the runway," Claudia Schiffer, 39, is quoted as saying on Vogue.co.uk. "I won't miss it. I am still modeling and I enjoy that a lot but no more runways."

The blonde bombshell is plenty busy off the runway -- on top of being the mother of two, Schiffer is the face of Alberta Ferretti's fragrance, joins fellow '90s glamazons Naomi Campbell and Eva Herzigova in the new Dolce & Gabbana perfume ads, and, last season, shot Yves Saint Laurent's campaign.

Yes, older models do seem to be making a comeback: Schiffer's '90s cohort, Cindy Crawford, has also been starring in numerous campaigns of late and after a seven year hiatus, Natalia Vodianova made her runway return last week in Milan.

But this isn't the first time Schiffer has said ciao to the catwalk. After walking for little-known designer Giorgio Ferrari during Milan Fashion Week in 1998, she said she was finito!

Though, Schiffer appears to be happy where she is.

"I can sit on the side and view the outfits and see all the detail and that suits me fine," the Vogue UK story reported. "It's very enjoyable. I like my new viewpoint."

Wanna know which supermodel earns the most? ('Cause clearly it's not enough to be drop dead gorgeous; you have to be loaded, too.)

I have always been very afraid of aging, you know, becoming old and useless and unattractive. When I turned 50, I decided to do something about it. I've spent fortunes on face creams and anti-aging serums… but using GenFX is the first time I've tried turning back the clock from the inside out. It's also the last time I'll spend a fortune on face creams! Now everyone says I look 35!

I was lucky enough to never have been overweight in my life. That all ended after the birth of my second child. I got down to 20 pounds over my normal weight but no matter what I did I couldn't lose the rest. I didn't know if was age catching up with me or if somehow my metabolism changed. Whatever the reason, nothing was working. I tried all the bogus "diet" pills that we see all over the internet, but are just scams. All I ever lost with that stuff was money. One of my friends, knowing what I was going through, told me that she had been losing weight using a special plan http://bit.ly/FatLoss4You It laid out the facts in a way I never saw before and had easy to follow meal plans and diets. Not only have I lost the weight and kept it off but I'm leading a healthier lifestyle, mostly from the knowledge I gained from this amazing program

Exhale, girls .. aging is inevitable, but you can have good health if you take care of yourself. Fresh air, water, rest, exercise, good food and finding the balance in life. A clean, quiet, safe home is the best place to be in the evenings. Sit on the porch; be honest in your relationships and pray for guidance each morning. Too many worry about appearance as the years roll by. Rest in your memories of when you were a 'babe'. Life is too short to get hung-up on some lines and a few gray hairs.
