Gisele Bundchen is known for standing in front of the camera, but the model hasn't taken up acting like many other well-known people who make a living via cameras. That is, except for a brief cameo in what is likely her most well-known acting appearance in The Devil Wears Prada.

In a video posted on YouTube by British Vogue, the model revealed what it was like to work with Meryl Streep. Initially, she declined the opportunity before ultimately coming around:

"I'm like, 'No, I'm not interested. Like, I'm not gonna play a model. I do that every day.' That's already a role I play and [the writer working on the movie was like], 'No, no, but I would love to have you in it. Well maybe I can write a little something for you.'"

She continued, explaining that there was a lot nervousness leading up to the movie shoot:

"They call and they say we have a part for Gisele and... I am not an actress and never had an acting class. It was Meryl Streep, which I think is the best actress of all time. It was Emily Blunt and Anne Hathaway, all of them. Incredible. And that's the scene I was doing with those three ladies and me. So I was like, 'Okay, I hope I don't screw this up.'"
