Gisele Bündchen: Forbes’ Highest-Paid Latina Model

She may not top the list, but Gisele Bündchen is still on top…

After 15-years as the world’s highest-paid model, the 37-year-old Brazilian supermodel drops to No. 2 on Forbes’ yearly list of the highest-paid models, behind Kendall Jenner.

But Bündchen is still standing tall, as the high-ranking Latina on the list, with earnings totaling $17.5 million.

Despite retiring from the runway in 2015, she still makes millions from contracts, including a lucrative fragrance deal with Carolina Herrera, as well as campaigns for Arezzo shoes and Vivara jewelry in her native country.

Bündchen has appeared on more than 1,200 magazine covers in her two-decade career, and she earned more money than any other model between 2002 – 2016.

The only other Latina in the Top 10, Bündchen’s compatriot Adriana Lima.

The 36-year-old Brazilian supermodel, the longest-running Angel in Victoria’s Secret history, comes in at No. 4 with earnings of $10.5 million.

Lima first strutted her stuff for Victoria’s Secret in 2000. Her seniority earns her a supersized deal with the lingerie maker.

She’s also the face of Sportmax and Marc Jacobs fragrances, and she hosts the hair and makeup competition show American Beauty Star on Lifetime.

Adriana Lima will have to lose the pregnancy weight sooner than later…

The 31-year-old Brazilian model, currently nine months pregnant with her second child, is scheduled to hit the runway as part of The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, which is set to return to its longtime network home CBS on December 4.

Along with Lima, this year’s event will feature runway appearances by Victoria’s Secret Angels Miranda Kerr, Alessandra Ambrosio, Erin Heatherton, Lily Aldridge and Lindsay Ellingson, among others.

Last year’s show averaged 11.5 million viewers and garnered the best ratings ever in adults 18-49 and women 18-34 categories.

No word yet on who the musical acts will be.
