Gisele Makes Big Bucks

One thing I can promise you in this week’s gossip is that it is entirely Beckham-free. I will not be talking about soccer, Posh, David or anything Spice-related. Although, I may have to make mention of other British celebs, but I’ll do my best to make sure that does not remind you of anything Victoria-esque. That woman has had her sickeningly fair share of time on the spotlight this week, wouldn’t you say?

Now on to some refreshingly new celeb slander…

gisele’s no. 1

If, in some faraway dreamland, you get the opportunity to marry a supermodel, here’s some advice: Race to the alter, my friend. Need a few reasons? Well, first of all they’re usually insanely hot; and second of all, they’re all stinking, filthy rich.

And all that cash could be yours if you manage to land yourself a Gisele Bundchen or a Kate Moss. According to Forbes magazine, the Brazilian-born Gisele is the world’s richest supermodel, raking in $33 million a year.

She earns four times more than Kate Moss, who came in at No. 2 on the list with a measly income of only $9 million a year. This may be due to her having been dropped from many ad campaigns last May during her cocaine picture scandal.

Here’s the rest of this good-looking list:

1- Gisele Bundchen: $33 million
2- Kate Moss: $9 million
3- Heidi Klum: $8 million
4- Adriana Lima: $6 million
5- Alessandra Ambrosio: $6 million
6- Carolyn Murphy: $5 million
7- Natalia Vodianova: $4.5 million
8- Karolina Kurkova: $3.5 million
9- Daria Werbowy: $3.5 million
10- Gemma Ward: $3 million

Biography

Gisele Caroline Bundchen was born on July 20, 1980, in Horizontina, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. We can only imagine the chaos that was the Bundchen household, considering Gisele grew up with five sisters -- Raquel, Graziela, Gabriela, Patricia, and Rafaela. The road to becoming the world's most sought-after model came by chance for Gisele, after she was spotted by an Elite agent while eating a Big Mac at a Sao Paulo McDonald's with her friends at the age of 14. Despite her father's disagreement with her career choice, Gisele moved to the city. In 1995, she entered the Elite Look Modeling Competition, and that's how it all got started

Gisele Bundchen graced the cover of Vogue in 1999, with a tagline that read "The Return of the Sexy Model." The cover not only made Gisele a household name, many fashion industry vets have credited the cover as putting an end to the heroin chic era. Gisele has since been in campaigns for major fashion houses, such as Ralph Lauren, Dolce & Gabbana, Versace, Valentino, Celine, Gianfranco Ferre, and Chloe. Aside from Vogue she has been on the cover of pretty much every significant magazine, including Vogue Italia, Marie Claire, GQ, Harper's Bazaar, Arena, Allure, and Rolling Stone.

While her best friend may be her dog Vida ("life" in Portuguese), Gisele Bundchen has been romantically linked to male model Scott Barnhill, billionaire Joao-Paulo Diniz and actor Josh Hartnett. She and Leonardo DiCaprio had one of the most famous on-again, off-again romances in Hollywood, with the two finally calling it quits after five years in November 2005. What? No more paparazzi photos of the most beautiful couple in Hollywood? Gisele had better plans in store.
