Claudia Schiffer Devastated by Brigitte Bardot's Death

Claudia Schiffer expressed her deep sadness over the death of Brigitte Bardot, who passed away on Sunday, December 28th, at the age of 91. Schiffer, who was often compared to Bardot due to their striking resemblance, shared photos and a heartfelt message on Instagram. In her message, Schiffer emphasized her respect for the French star, mentioning her dedication to animals, her music, the brilliance of her films, and her captivating photoshoots. She considered it a great honor to be compared to her. Brigitte Bardot was an iconic figure in European cinema in the 1950s and 1960s, with significant films such as 'And God Created Woman' and 'Contempt'. She retired from acting in 1973 and dedicated herself to animal protection through the Fondation Brigitte Bardot. Bardot's personal life was equally interesting, with four marriages: to director Roger Vadim, actor Jacques Charrier, German tycoon Gunter Sachs, and businessman Bernard d’Ormale. In October, it was revealed that Bardot had undergone surgery due to a serious illness.
