GISELE BUNDCHEN – EST. $450 MILLION

Since 2001, Gisele Bundchen has been at the top of the list when it comes to the highest-paid models in the world. As reported by Forbes Magazine, she also went from runway star to becoming one of the Most Powerful Women in the World. When she first started, no one would have ever seen that Gisele would become the richest and highest-paid supermodel for 11 consecutive years.

With an estimated net worth of $450 million, she is well on her way to becoming the first billionaire in modeling and the first self-made female billionaire in Brazil.

However, her estimated 1,200 magazine covers likely pales in comparison to the philanthropic work she does. Aside from being a staunch environmental activist, Gisele also supports plenty of other causes, including the Red Cross, Save the Children, and Doctors Without Borders. Much to her credit, the model has been serving as a Goodwill Ambassador for the UN Environment Program since 2009.
