In a new interview, Klum, 49, said she watched the three-part series but was caught off guard by how few familiar faces she recognized in it, calling the entire program a bit boring.
“To be honest, I thought it was pretty boring,” the supermodel said on Wednesday’s episode of “Just for Variety with.” Mark Malkinpodcast, according to Yahoo! News.
“It’s unlikely that anyone I knew was on that show,” she added. “I didn’t know who half of those people were,” she said, adding, “It’s so weird. I have never met any of these people.”

Although Klum is mentioned in the series, she does not appear in it, though she has clarified that she was asked to take part.
“They came up to me,” the German native said on an episode of the Wednedsay podcast. “They asked me if I wanted to be a part of it and I said, ‘If you’re looking for a negative story, you’re barking up the wrong tree because I had a great time there.’
“I feel like they were my family,” she added. “I traveled the world with them. I have great friends: Alessandra [Ambrosio], tayra [Banks], Adriana [Lima], Giselle [Bündchen]You know, these are my girls.”
“We just had a great time together. So, you know, hearing all these stories pop up, it’s kind of mind blowing for me, you know?” she continued. “When they blame different people for what they do, I’m like, ‘Oh my God, did this really happen?’ I don’t know… I was always waiting to get more information. But, I don’t know, she never came, so I never kept watching.”
The series also explores the involvement of the Victoria’s Secret brand in the unrealistic beauty standards that have plagued the modeling industry for years.
Although they have since been renamed to be more inclusive, Klum admitted that the transition “should have happened a lot sooner”.
