Career
Mattheis began her modeling career at the age of fourteen, after being a finalist in a competition held by the agency Elite Model Management. She moved to São Paulo soon after, and it was there that her career as a model took off. From fifteen to seventeen, she lived in Japan, Hong Kong and some European countries. Her acting career started when she played Vivian in Brazilian soap-opera Malhação.
Mattheis does not consume alcoholic beverages. While she stopped eating red meat and chicken for ideological reasons two years ago{{when|date=February 2023}}, she otherwise avoids stringent dietary restrictions. Instead, she relies on an intense exercise regimen that she began as a teenager: "I run five to seven kilometers three to four times a week. Sometimes on the treadmill, sometimes outdoors." Mattheis has two personal trainers.{{cite web|url=http://diariogaucho.clicrbs.com.br/rs/entretenimento/noticia/2015/08/fiorella-mattheis-revela-como-mantem-a-forma-e-garante-odeio-ser-proibida-de-comer-4824120.html|title=Fiorella Mattheis revela como mantém a forma e garante: "Odeio ser proibida de comer"|accessdate=22 August 2015|date=13 August 2015|language=pt}} Mattheis attributes her successful career to achieving what could not be done with beauty alone through "hard work and dedication".{{Cite web|url=http://gshow.globo.com/programas/video-show/Por-tras-das-cameras/noticia/2015/03/fiorella-mattheis-revela-sonho-e-rejeita-rotulo-de-musa-so-beleza-nao-sustenta.html|title=Fiorella Mattheis revela sonho e rejeita rótulo de musa: 'Só beleza não sustenta'|accessdate=23 August 2015|date=16 March 2015|language=pt}}
