Forbes announce its annual list of the world’s highest-paid models.
The five top-earning supermodels from June 2008 to June 2009 are entirely the same as last year’s: Gisele Bundchen, Heidi Klum, Kate Moss, Adriana Lima, and Doutzen Kroes.
But in that period some of them made less money than in the same period last year.
Gisele Bundchen made $25 million in 2009, though she made $35 million in 2008. She told GQ magazine that she didn’t really make $35 million.
She was in a popular ad campaign of Versace, True Religion jeans, Dior and others.
Gisele also has her own Brazilian shoe line and tabloid fame on pair with movie stars.
I think the next year it can be without her. Maybe you heard that she is pregnant.
The German beauty Heidi Klum has recieved much more money this year – $16 million, in 2008 it was $14 million.
She has her TV show, she is a member of Victoria Secrets angels, and she also designs a collection of Birkenstock sandals and has endorsement deals with Diet Coke, Volkswagen, McDonald’s and LG.
British Kate Moss made $8.5 million in 2009 and $7.5 million last year. She also makes designs for popular shops like TopShop and was a face of famous fashion houses.
New on this year’s top is Alessandra Ambrosio. Last year she was out of top because she had a baby.
And this year has brought her $6 million.
And Emanuela de Paula made the list for the first time, coming in as the eleventh-highest earner, with a $2.5 million salary.
