Over the last few months it seems as though supermodel Heidi Klum has been trying to rob Sting of the accolade 'smuggest human on the planet'. If she isn't banging on about how her marriage to Seal is the strongest thing since Superman's gusset she's pointing out how perfect her children are or what incredibly ecstasies she endures in bed with her athletic, sexually-superpowered husband. And she's rich. And beautiful.

So it's nice to see that beneath the veneer of perfection Heidi is actually a raving lunatic, the type who shouts at clouds and throws stones at the moon, because she has confessed that throughout her life she has kept every single one of her teeth that has fallen out and constantly carries them around wherever she goes, in a special little bag. Cuckoo!

 

"I carry around a little bag of my teeth. We don't have a tooth fairy [in Germany], so I put them in a little bag. I don't know if it's good luck, it's just a crazy thing that I do."

 

I've never heard of this being good luck (though if Amy Winehouse did the same thing she'd need to travel everywhere with a rucksack on her back), and I can't imagine that it impresses the friendly customs officials at airports. Imagine travelling around the world with useless little lumps of rotten calcium. It must be like being Snow Patrol's tour manager.
