Heidi Klum explains party cancellation

Written by . Published: November 06 2012

Heidi Klum cancelled her annual Halloween party because it felt wrong to "dress up and drink" while residents of the East Coast battled in the aftermath of superstorm Sandy.


The German beauty has been throwing her famous costume bash for many years, but she axed the New York event last week (31Oct12) as heavy winds and rain caused chaos throughout the region.


She has rescheduled the party for 1 December (12) and insists she has no regrets about calling off the event.


Klum tells TV host Ellen DeGeneres, "I was in New York. So many people have lost their homes and other people have lost a family member. I didn't think it was right to dress up and drink and dance. And so I rescheduled it."


She also reveals her four children were in Los Angeles and had no idea about the drama occurring on the other side of the country.


Klum adds, "Obviously they don't hear a lot of the news and everything, so they just celebrated Halloween obviously here in L.A. It was also very different and they went trick-or-treating with their outfits on and love it. They're happy."
