Brazilian beauty Gisele Bundchen had to console her New England Patriot husband Tom Brady after his team lost the Super Bowl on Sunday night.

Gisele cheered on her quarterback hubby as his team fought against the New York Giants at Super Bowl XLVI in Indianapolis, Ind. Upon her husband's 21-17 loss to the Giants, Bundchen ran down to give her husband a hug.

Tom, graciously accepted his wife's affections, but was still devastated by the loss. "It always comes down to one or two plays in this game and if you make it, you're celebrating. If you don't, then you don't sleep for a week. I give [the Giants] a lot of credit for the plays they made. They deserved to win and hopefully we'll be back at some point," Brady told the press.

This is the Giants' second Super Bowl win in 4 years. The team, once again led by Eli Manning, also won the coveted trophy in 2008.

"It's been a wild game," said Manning, who now has one more Super Bowl trophy than his older brother, Peyton Manning. "It's been a wild season," Manning told the press.

"He's such a gentle giant. I'm so proud of him. When I go to watch him play, I'm like this big cheerleader, jumping up and down for him. I was born such a passionate person. I don't know if that's my blessing or curse!" Bundchen, who some predict will be the world's first billionaire Supermodel, told reporters of her husband. The Victoria's Secret model married Brady in 2009 and has a two-year-old son with the NFL star.

Before the big game, Bundchen even sent out a private email to friends and family asking them to pray for her husband's victory on Sunday.

"I feel Tommy really needs our prayer, our support and love at this time," she wrote in an email that was obtained by the New York Post. "I kindly ask all of you to join me on this positive chain and pray for him, so he can feel confident, healthy and strong. Envision him happy and fulfilled experiencing with his team a victory this Sunday."

Gisele, 31, has also been causing a stir with her new advertisement for Versace. Bundchen wears nothing but a denim jacket by the high fashion label to cover her assets in the new black and white ad for the label's spring and summer 2012 collection.
