Kendall Jenner Tops Gisele On Forbes List Of World's Highest-Paid Models

Kendall Jenner has knocked Gisele Bündchen off the top spot as the world's highest paid model.

The 22-year-old catwalk queen and reality star topped the annual Forbes list for the first time with earnings of $22 million over the past 12 months. Kendall's earnings more than doubled from 2016's $10 million total, making her the biggest dollar and percent gainer on the list.

37-year-old Gisele came in second place, having earned $17.5 million. This also marked the first year she has not headed up the line-up in 15 years. Chrissy Teigen rounded out the top 3, joining the list for the first time after raking in $13.5 million over the past 12 month period.

Sisters Gigi and Bella Hadid also made the cut for the first time. They’re ranked at number five and number nine respectively, with Gigi making $9.5 million and her younger sibling, Bella, taking in $6 million. Bella is also the youngest model on the list, having just turned 21 last month.

Ashley Graham is the first ever plus-size model to make the highest-paid list, coming in at 10th place after banking $5.5 million from her lingerie and swimsuit lines and high-profile contracts.
