Gisele Bündchen Just Set a Record No Model Ever Has Before
When it comes to the world's most renowned supermodels, we don't love to talk numbers. After all, each girl is making waves in her own right, taking the catwalk or posing for campaigns we'll never forget. But every year, Forbes releases a list of the highest-paid models in the industry, and there are facts impossible to ignore.
Take Gisele Bündchen, for example, who's officially retired but has continued to top the list since 2002. (Her appearance at the Olympics may be her last strut down the runway.) Or Kendall Jenner, who's managed to double her earnings since 2015 and meet her friend Karlie Kloss at spot three. Altogether, these ladies made a whopping $154 million, to which we'll say: there's nothing like a little teamwork. Read on for the official countdown.
