Claudia Schiffer was born on August 25, 1970, in Rheinberg, a small town in West Germany. Growing up, she was a tall, shy, and somewhat awkward teenager, far from the glamorous figure she would later become. Originally, Claudia aspired to be a lawyer and work in her father’s law firm.
However, her life took a dramatic turn when she was discovered by a modeling agent at a Düsseldorf nightclub when she was just 17 years old.
