She was just 19 years old and, according to him, “can’t remember it at all.”
Today Heidi Klum is an internationally sought-after supermodel living in Los Angeles; at the beginning of the 90s she was still at the beginning of her career in Bergisch Gladbach. There was also a very famous kebab shop there, where “everyone was always there” and where the now 50-year-old is said to have smooched with Viva presenter Markus Kavka. He spilled this story when he was in the “From 17” podcast was a guest.
How did the Klum-Kavka kiss happen?
She was probably 19 years old at the time and he was “three or four years older” when the two met. According to his story, both Klum and Kavka spent a lot of time in the kebab shop. Only back then she wasn’t in pompous evening wear, but in a green and white Adidas training jacket and beige corduroy trousers. Kavka liked the style: “She was the most beautiful person in town.”
How the kiss came about was probably not rocket science; rather, it was caused by youthful rebellion. “They just randomly made out in Bergisch Gladbach. We were all in our storm and stress years, she didn’t have a boyfriend, I didn’t have a girlfriend,” he explained.
Markus Kavka in the “From 17” podcast:
No memory of Heidi Klum
However, Markus Kavka was not particularly imaginative about the short romance; rather, his food order would have been the deciding factor for the special moment: “I think I was the only one that evening who ordered kebab without onions and without garlic. That qualified me for this kiss.” But what does Heidi Klum think about the story from her youth? “She can’t remember it at all. So zero,” revealed the moderator.
