Gisele 'rejects dollar pay'

The world's richest model has reportedly reacted in her own way to the sliding value of the US dollar - by refusing to be paid in the currency.

Gisele Bündchen is said to be keen to avoid the US currency because of uncertainty over its strength.

According to Brazil's weekly magazine Veja, when Ms Bündchen signed a deal to represent Pantene hair products, she demanded that the brand owner, Procter & Gamble (P&G), paid her in euros.

There are also reports that she will be paid in euros for a deal with Dolce & Gabbana to promote its The One fragrance.

"Contracts starting now are more attractive in euros, because we don't know what will happen to the dollar," Patricia Bündchen told Bloomberg. from bbcnews.com
