Gisele Bundchen is the highest paid supermodel

Surpassed other models Brazilian beauty Gisele Bundchen has been crowned queen of the catwalk - as the world\'s highest paid model. The sexy supermodel topped the wealth list for money earned over the past year in the rich list published by Forbes. The model has been named the world\'s richest supermodel for the sixth consecutive year. The Brazilian beauty has reportedly made earnings of $45 million in the past 12 months- thanks to lucrative endorsement deals with Espirit, Pantene, Versace, as well as her Ipanema flip-flop line. Following Gisele\'s lead is Kate Moss with earnings of $9.2 million, then Natalia Vodianova in third place with $8.6 million, Adriana Lima at number four with $7.3 million, and Doutzen Kroes at five with $6.9 million, Alessandra Ambrosio in the sixth place with $6.6 million, followed by Miranda Kerr with $4 million. Missing from the list this year is Heidi Klum, who Forbes discounted after deciding that she had graduated from supermodel to full-time businesswoman - thus no longer making her eligible for the chart.
