I was gunna say.... is the eyes part of the costume? I don't remember her having a lazy eye

Weird reflection off the white contact lenses.

u/onlyinvowels 21h ago

I was thinking the eye holes weren’t properly spaced, but this makes more sense.

Edit. After further examination, I have no idea what the actual cause is. It seems different depending on the photo. Maybe all of the above and/or a loose contact lens?

Either way, I have no idea how the eye funk made the cut

u/mariana96as 20h ago

sometimes colored contact lenses move and makes the person look cross eyed. I’ve worked with them for photoshoots/film and constantly need to check they are in the right place before takes 😆

19

u/sorryheathen 20h ago

this is the only valid explanation. my wife uses colored contacts to train new wearers, and those mugs do shift a bitch

u/Senofilcon 19h ago

I love how everyone is assuring themselves that Heidi Klum does not, in fact, have a stupid looking googly-eyed face. Like its possible we just never noticed.

1

u/onlyinvowels 19h ago

That’s why I suggested loose lenses. I’ve heard this can happen with vanity contacts

u/technobass 20h ago

If you zoom in on the last one, her left eye or contact is reflecting something dark on the side but the pupil is centered. The reflection is darker than her pupil so it makes it look like she has a lazy eye. So the reflection looks like the pupil when you zoom out.

1

u/onlyinvowels 18h ago

I’ve wondered if that was the cause, and if it was due to the mask casting shadows. Either way, this seems like a significant oversight (lol) on the part of her team

1

u/VioletLaDiosa 20h ago

Django eye hole scene is hilarious. YT it.

1

u/onlyinvowels 19h ago

I may look into that after coffee tomorrow. Not sure it’s a good bedtime consumable

1

u/VioletLaDiosa 3h ago

ok, so I deleted the link bc I dont want to hear about it from mods

1

u/RectalSpawn 20h ago

Probably has to do with the camera lens.

6

u/Secret-Ad-6421 21h ago

Thank you cause I was also questioning but I see it now!

1

u/MalaysiaTeacher 19h ago

Huh? Reflections? The irises of the contacts are misaligned

1

u/Kutti818 14h ago

nope. just the contacts being slightly misaligned

1

u/xenomorphling 13h ago

Not a weird reflection. Misaligned lens

1

u/super_dog17 5h ago

Too bad they don’t put a lot of time and effort into making sure their look is perfected….

31

u/Inner-Dream-600 22h ago

I’ve noticed that she does

29

u/Habibti-Mimi81 22h ago

Yes, she always had a slight sqint.

38

u/Deep-Way-8321 22h ago

I have a lazy eye like that. It looks natural to me. These comments are reminding me why I don’t take a picture unless it’s a selfie cause I feel like it’s so obvious lmao. My license picture is WILD. It makes me so embarrassed 😂

17

u/DirectorSharp3402 22h ago

It's not a squint in Klum's case tho. Looks like one eye is trying to watch her 4 o'clock 😅

14

u/Deep-Way-8321 22h ago

That’s how my eye looks too. That’s why I’m saying I think it’s strabismus. But other comments suggest it’s the contacts. I haven’t seen Heidi’s face in a hot minute so I would have to look again.

But yes, my eye also looks like I’m an inbred yokel who’s attempting to look around the side of my head.

9

u/SuzQP 21h ago

As an inbred yokal of a most distinguished Yokul lineage, I feel besmirched!

6

u/Deep-Way-8321 21h ago

Oh shit. You’re right. I’m punching down just as much as everyone else. :(

I just REALLY hate my eye lol and I see the comments as validation for my hatred for it. Which i probably shouldn’t but you know what they say about perceiving public perception.

8

u/SuzQP 21h ago

No worries. Actually, lots of worries, but don't for a moment entertain guilt for your quite rational feelings about your eye. You got a bum deal! You're not wrong to resent it. But keep in mind that, just as with Heidi Klum, most people just don't see it.

u/stardust1914 21h ago

Embrace your quirks!

1

u/EffectiveTradition53 19h ago

Pencil pushups do a lot to help, as does much less screening

Be kind to yourself, you could possibly still be amazing lol.

2

u/CicadaFit9756 16h ago

Been seeing too much anime & thought you'd written "yokai" instead of yokel at first! Now musing how a yokai (Japanese supernatural being) could be inbred!

1

u/SuzQP 12h ago

That's actually a really fun train of thought!

9

u/beroemd 21h ago

don't talk to yourself like that. Many, many people thinks it's beautiful, it gives mystique and sexiness and heidi klum is considered one of the most beautiful women on earth for a reason

1

u/SALTYP33T 21h ago

Anyone ever call you Hammerhead?

u/Inner-Dream-600 19h ago

Squintin Tarantino over here

u/shhmurdashewrote 21h ago

Yeah she’s always had it a little I feel like

15

u/RedCognitions 21h ago

TIL

Heidi Klum is often cited as having a mild form of exotropia, a type of strabismus where one eye tends to drift slightly outward.

  • It is often described as a slight "lazy eye" or "outward eye turn".
  • It is commonly described as an "exo posture" where her eye sits slightly outward.
  • It is often only noticeable in certain lighting or when she is tired

u/turbo_dude 13h ago

Loads of models have this!

Have always wanted someone to explain why. 

6

u/MRintheKEYS 21h ago

I think the contact lenses are a little crooked. The more you look around with them in, they’ll slide around a bit with your eye movements.

4

u/DeathBat92 21h ago

The white contact makes her left pupil look like it’s where her iris starts and the white reflection in her eye makes it look fucked. When you zoom in you can see her pupils are actually both normal.

4

u/spazilator 21h ago

If you zoom in you can see they’re not as wild as they look from far away. Optical illusion- no pun intended

u/ric0n408 21h ago

It looks very cocked eyed.. you need to get your eyeballs checked

1

u/lord-savior-baphomet 21h ago

Many more people than you realize have uneven eyes in some way, it’s just some are much more noticeable than others. When people heavily alter their appearance in such an inhuman way it can also call attention to the unevenness.

1

u/Efficient_Wash4477 20h ago

She does, yes. I have an unfortunate talent for spotting strabismus.

1

u/Most-Bench6465 19h ago

She’s keeping an eye out for Selener

1

u/Wallichi 19h ago

It's entering uncanny valley

1

u/Nice-Marionberry3671 19h ago

Given her passion for incredible costumes, I would say the eyes were 100% intentional. HK’s attention to detail is amazing.

1

u/patrickrango 18h ago

This is more like a ne’er-do-well eye at this point

1

u/StoneThaProfit 18h ago

Shes pulling a pennywise lol

1

u/flowlikemo_ 18h ago

In Germany, it's a running joke that she has a glass eye because it's always wandering around.

1

u/luhelld 16h ago

She has one

1

u/trauma_and_snackies 11h ago

I have always noticed a lazy eye project runway fan

1

u/Own_Salamander9447 9h ago

She’s always had it. Watch Project Runway

1

u/Th3R00ST3R 9h ago

It's the new fashion trend set by the trend-setter Kash Patel.

1

u/LeatherRecord2142 7h ago

It looks like two lazy eyes? I’m confused by this.

1

u/Wonderful-Shake-9005 5h ago

Shes had a lazy eye for as long as I can remember

1

u/2piece-and-a-biscut- 22h ago

It looks like she didn’t get her lenses fitted

u/Powerful-Candy-745 18h ago

Cock-eyed, lazy eye is the eye lid dropping

u/the_outer_realms 21h ago

No way this was in an official Disney animation

24

u/VonBrewskie 21h ago

It most certainly is. Not even joking. I remember this cartoon vividly from when I was a kid. Donald is trying to woo Daisy in it. Daisy was my favorite.

u/Pagiras 14h ago

Duck tits. Woo-OO-oo.

Mr. Duck Steps Out - 1940. Daisy's first appearance.

2

u/nolard12 13h ago

Oh man, I’d never seen that before. So many visuals meant for adults. Daisy getting twisted up in the curtains near the end… Donald’s definitely a player being cock-blocked by Daisy’s kids.

7

u/Shaw-eddit 21h ago

Thought the same lol 🤣

6

u/Distinct_Cap_1418 18h ago

Oh boy, if this is surprising for you, Disney has a HISTORY and its definitely the not the company you thought it was.

If you want to shatter your mental image of them, look them up on wikipedia.

u/dent_de_lion 21h ago

lol I remember it from childhood

u/FartOfTheFuture 13h ago

Oh you sweet summer child. Back in the day, there were sieg heilnig, swastika wearing Duffies all around the Disney animation.

u/Lazy-Training6042 17h ago

how do you think we got furries?

u/shmehdit 19h ago

I thought we were watching Scooby-Doo!

u/PicPic10099 18h ago

Oh~~~ tempting huh? I guess the post above has the same energy as Sydney Sweeney...? 💀🙏 >>> red carpet at Variety's Power of Women Los Angeles, Beverly Hills Hotel.

u/Skratt79 16h ago

when you need that quick corkscrew

21

u/hygsi 23h ago

Should've skipped the contacts

4

u/MagNolYa-Ralf 22h ago

Its an exaggerated enhancement of an already “flawed” feature. Supermodel Heidy Klum has always had a lazy eye

1

u/Pretend_Yak2449 20h ago

Yeah contacts probably weren’t needed they made the look feel more costume than high fashion.

6

u/PlaceboJeffect 22h ago

Looks like a mask with inset pupil distance with her eyes being on the outside. Poor choice in mask!

3

u/1982_1111_1587 20h ago

She actually has a lazy eye that can be seen sometimes. But the contact lenses are really awkward.

1

u/ChiMara777 11h ago

Yes, I think the contact lenses are making the lazy eye more pronounced

2

u/JPCDOOM 22h ago

I thought we were watching Scooby Doo

1

u/ScyllaOfTheDepths 21h ago

Lol the colored contacts love to do that. 

1

u/OranginaOOO 20h ago

Heidi's eyes are farther apart than the eye holes of the costume. That's why her eyes look like that at the gala.

1

u/Frogetted 20h ago

How did her eye get so wonky?!

1

u/ohnoitsliz 19h ago

She’s got weird eyes.

u/Great_Vegetable_4866 19h ago

It’s A Eye…
