Kendall Jenner Dethrones Gisele Bündchen As Highest-Paid Models After 22-Years Reign

For the first time since 2002, Gisele Bundchen is not the world’s highest-earning model. Kendall Jenner, 22, steals the top spot with a mammoth $22 million year. Thanks to an Instagram account that lets her disseminate advertisements to 85 million followers, Jenner tallied a career-best total in the 12 months to June from favorable deals with Estée Lauder, La Perla and Adidas, among others. Paychecks from her family’s reality TV show, her Kendall + Kylie clothing line with her sister, Kylie Jenner, and numerous social media endorsements juice her modeling money.

She edges Bundchen (No. 2, $17.5 million) who had a quieter year. The 37-year-old still posed for a Carolina Herrera fragrance and Arezzo shoes and Vivara jewelry in her native Brazil, but fewer campaigns meant her take-home dipped 43% from 2016’s $30.5 million total.

Rounding out the top three is Chrissy Teigen (No. 3; $13.5 million), who joins the list for the first time. With an outsized social following, the former Sports Illustrated cover girl and foodie mints millions from deals beyond fashion, including adverts with beverage brands such as Vita Coco and Smirnoff.

Adriana Lima earns the 4th spot earning $10.5 million, Gigi Hadid ranks 5th along with Rosie Huntington-Whiteley earning $9.5 million each.

Karlie Kloss snags the 7th spot earning $9 million and Liu Wen, who remains the only nonwhite model among the top 10, ranks 8th earning $6.5 million.

This year’s list marks the first time siblings have ever appeared on the list, with Bella Hadid coming in 9th earning $6million and it also features the first curvy model to make the cut – Ashley Graham who comes in 10th earning $5.5 Million.
