Heidi Klum’s 16-year-old lookalike daughter Leni has scored her very first fashion magazine cover, posing with her famous mom in matching color-blocked pantsuits for Vogue Germany’s January 2021 issue.
“It was only a matter of time before I would try it myself as a model. The first offer came when I was only 12 or 13, from a brand I loved to wear: Brandy Melville. Back then I begged mom, but no chance! I now understand that it would have been too early,” Leni told the magazine of her interest in the industry.
She continued, “For most other jobs, I’d have to stifle my crazy ways to look ‘professional.’ As a model, I can let everything out and just be who I am. The job is the perfect outlet for all the energy that I have in me.”
The cover comes just a week after the “America’s Got Talent” host, 47, teased that her teenage daughter was interested in modeling.

“She’s old enough now,” Klum told People. “I always thought she was too young. We always also decided to keep the children out of the public eye. But she’s driving a car now, she’s 16, so I figured if you can do that, you can also model now if this is what you wish to do.”
However, the mom of four isn’t without her hesitations.
“Obviously, as a mother, [I want my] child to do what she wants to do. The industry is great and I love it and I’ve been in it for over 20 years but it’s also, it’s a lot of traveling, it’s different,” she explained. “You have to be a strong person, especially as a woman you have to be very strong.”
