Supermodel refuses to work for US dollars. Gives Heather Nauert constipation.

I wouldn't normally spend more than three seconds on something like this, but there's an interesting aspect to it.

Supermodel Gisele Bundchen reportedly is refusing to accept payment in U.S. dollars because the currency is "too weak."

The Brazilian beauty allegedly has requested to be paid in euros only and will no longer accept American currency because of uncertainty over its strength.

The 27-year-old reportedly has already requested Procter & Gamble -- who employ her as the face of hair product Pantene -- pay her in euros.

Patricia Bundchen, the model's twin sister and manager told Bloomberg in September, "Contracts starting now are more attractive in euros because we don't know what will happen to the dollar."

She has a twin sister? The imagination runs wild.... But, I digress.

Gisele Bundchen is listed by Forbes as the richest supermodel in the world. But beyond that, she's got some business smarts. She owns a hotel and has her own line of shoes with a pair of flip-flops that sell for $230 a pair.

So her decision to accept contracts that only pay in euros makes complete sense. Except to FOX News. Heather Nauert under the headline Greedy Supermodel Gisele Bundchen:

Reason No. 853 to dislike supermodels: Not only are they vapid, self-important amazons, but it seems they are greedy, too.

[...]

I'm all for people earning money, but here's what gets me: She is working for an American company selling an American product. She has at least one home in America (in New York). She is working here, yet she doesn't want to be paid in our currency.

[...]

So why doesn't Procter & Gamble insist that they pay her in dollars? Who knows. Maybe they don't want to risk losing her.

I know when I see the new hair care ads, I'll think about greedy Gisele, not how great Pantene makes her hair look.

I say P&G should dump Gisele and instead hire an American model who appreciates the Ohio-based company's business and is happy to take our currency. I'm sure an American model's hair is just as nice.

Yewwww. That sounds like a bad case of sour grapes. But hey, Heather, the next time you end up on some assignment in, say, Mexico, tell us all that you're working for pesos.
