Gisele Bündchen built up a career based on her curvy frame — in fact, so much public attention centered around her breasts, she was once known as "The boobs from Brazil." But Bündchen's breasts changed after she had children. Like many moms, Bündchen breastfed her children, but doing so altered the shape of her breasts, shrinking them and making them uneven, she told People. Decades later, Bündchen underwent surgery to reshape them.

Bündchen immediately regretted her procedure, revealing in her memoir, "Lessons: My Path to a Meaningful Life," how it impacted her self-image. "When I woke up, I was like, 'What have I done?' I felt like I was living in a body I didn't recognize. For the first year, I wore [baggy] clothes because I felt uncomfortable" (via People). Bündchen tried to hide the fact that she underwent the procedure, which her fellow Brazilians didn't appreciate.

She faced ridicule in her home country, worsening Bündchen's self-image. Bündchen's natural breasts changed Brazillian concepts of beauty, and news of her efforts to hide her breast augmentation led to what the New York Post called "Inflategate." Despite this, Bündchen overcame her insecurities and opened up about her mental health, revealing that her then-husband, Tom Brady, helped her through it all.
