On working with the supermodel with a net worth of $400 million, Vonn was in awe and felt intimated by the idea of standing alongside her. In an interaction with Elle magazine, she confessed her fears at that time. “I was so intimidated. I told her: ‘I don’t really want to stand next to you. You are too pretty. Can you just stand over there’,” she said.
