Police body camera footage shows an emotional Gisele Bündchen crying about being followed by paparazzi after she was pulled over by officers in Surfside on Wednesday.
Surfside Police did not write up a report, so it's unclear why officers pulled over the supermodel.
In the bodycam, the officer is seen approaching Bündchen in her SUV and ordering her to roll down her window.
"There's paparazzi right there," Bündchen responds.

The distraught supermodel eventually rolls down her window halfway and points out someone who was trying to take photos of her.
"He's right there in that grey car," she says.
"OK, there's nothing I can do about that," the officer says.

The officer then appears to walk over the paparazzi following the supermodel.
"Leave my traffic stop," he tells the paparazzi.
The officer goes back to Bündchen's SUV and gives her a warning, telling her he'll give her a courtesy.
"I understand who you are, there's nothing I can do about that," he tells the supermodel.
"I know but he's stalking me," she says.
"OK, then file a report with Miami Beach," the officer responds.
Bundchen then gets emotional and starts crying.
"What do you need, why are you crying?" the officer asks.
"I'm so tired, everywhere I go I have this (expletive) guy after me, nothing protects me," Bündchen cries.
"I can't do nothing — I just want to live my life," she says at one point.
The officer's final message wasn't reassuring to Bündchen.
"I can't prevent them from doing their job, which is to take pictures," he tells her.
"I don't even know how that's allowed," she says.
After the warning, Bündchen drove off.
The supermodel divorced retired NFL star Tom Brady in 2022 after 13 years of marriage, and became emotional talking about the split in an interview last month.
