Heidi Klum Turns 51, Promptly Celebrates Birthday Without A Top On

Heidi Klum celebrated her birthday Saturday exactly how you would expect the supermodel to. She was surrounded by loved ones before propping her feet up next to a pool with her husband, Tom Kaulitz.

The family gathering as she turned 51 quickly gave way to her marking her birthday with one of her favorite pastimes, making the Instagram censors work overtime.

It's a delicate balance that she's come to master over the years.

Seeing just how naked she can be on social media is a regular occurrence that Heidi's 12 million Instagram followers are more than familiar with.  So going down that path on her birthday had to be somewhat expected.

Once poolside with her husband, Heidi decided it was time to pop up in her Instagram Story without a top on.

The short clip of her birthday suit went right up to the line as far as the social media platform's rules and regulations are concerned.  It's a line she knows well, and she's constantly bumping up against with her content.

The Heidi Klum Content Machine Isn't Slowing Down For Her Birthday

Heidi's another year older, she's another year wiser, and she appears to be prepared for another year that doesn't require a lot of clothing.  It's worked for her up to this point, so why would she change it?

The obvious answer is she wouldn’t.

She keeps the content rolling like an Instagram model half her age, and it's that work ethic combined with her willingness to test the censors that has kept her on everyone’s radar.

Heidi has decades under her belt and isn't about to let a birthday slow her down.  She's found the fountain of youth, and she has more work to do before handing the reigns over to her daughter.

Happy birthday, Heidi.  Here's to another solid year of content that's designed to keep us all on our toes.
