Supermodel Heidi Klum strips down for the Emmys

She may not have won any gongs but sexy Heidi Klum stole the show at Sunday's Emmy Awards when she stripped down to almost nothing on stage.

The German supermodel (35) opened the show with a sketch in which William Shatner ('Star Trek') and three other actors peeled her clothes off until she was left in nothing but a glittering pair of hotpants. But afterwards there was only disappointment for Heidi, who came away empty-handed despite being nominated twice for her reality show 'Project Runway'.

'John Adams', a series about the second US President which was co-produced by Hollywood star Tom Hanks, was the big favourite of the night with a massive 23 nominations - and it didn't disappoint, eventually picking up 13 Emmys. Actors Laura Linney and Paul Giamatti were rewarded for their portrayal of the President and First Lady, while Tom Wilkinson was recognised for his role as Benjamin Franklin.

Another big winner was the comedy '30 Rock', a project from American comedian and 'Saturday Night Live' veteran Tina Fey, who recently caught everybody's attention with her uncanny impression of Republican VP candidate Sarah Palin.

The television drama 'Mad Men' also came away with a handful of awards, including best drama.

Additional gongs went to Glenn Close for 'Damages', Alec Baldwin for '30 Rock', Jeremy Piven for 'Entourage' and Jean Smartin for 'Samantha Who?'. Two-time Oscar-winner Dianne Wiest (60) won the best supporting actress Emmy for her role in the drama 'In Treatment'.
