Supermodel Gisele Bündchen wants to clear up a rumor that has gotten a bit hairy.

In the July issue of GQ, the Brazilian beauty calls reports that she pulled a Britney and despondently lopped off her locks when she and Leonardo DiCaprio broke up in 2005 as "ridiculous."

In fact, Gisele insists that not only has the golden brown mane upon her head never completely left its place of residence, she does "not have extensions" either.

She goes on to recount the story of a fellow airline passenger who sought the truth behind the tresses—by actually tugging on her very real hair.

"She was like, 'I just want to check.' "

Rude? Perhaps. But then again, when you've reportedly earned an estimated $35 million in a year, you can probably put up with a little coiffure curiosity every now and then.
