Brazilian beauty Gisele Bundchen has retained her title as the world’s highest-paid supermodel.
The 36-year-old supermodel, who announced her retirement from the runway in 2014, continued to reign over Forbes magazine’s annual earnings list, banking $ 30.5 million in the year from June, 2015, thanks to lucrative fashion deals with brands like Chanel and Carolina Herrera, and sales of her own lingerie and skincare line.
Gisele easily triumphed her nearest competitor, Adriana Lima - her fellow countrywoman is a distant second with $ 10.5 million.
Kim Kardashian’s half-sister Kendall Jenner is tied with Karlie Kloss for third place with $10 million, while another social media favourite, Gigi Hadid, made her debut on the countdown, at five, sharing the spot with Rosie Huntington-Whiteley with $ 9 million. Others featured in the top 20 include Kate Moss, Cara Delevingne, and Lily Aldridge, and together, the stunners earned a whopping $154 million. —PTI
