She is ranked in The Supers (http://models.com/rankings/ui/TheSupers/), #1 in The Money Girls (http://models.com/rankings/ui/MoneyGirls/) and #2 in Top Sexiest (http://models.com/rankings/ui/TopSexiest/).

There was a previous list called Icons where she was number 1, but that changed late last year (october i think).

I just cant with sports fanatics. Its one thing to be a fan but its just a GAME! its not life.

yeah I've seen some funny tweets about never feeling sorry for Tom Brady haha.

I preferred the old list. A supermodel list without Cindy Crawford loses all credibility with me.

the icon list prior was perfection and had more of a "criteria". The Supers list with the inclusion of Heidi and no Cindy made the criteria more broad and not as exclusive imo. Not that Heidi isn't a supermodel but so is Cindy...and Cindy a FAR more successful fashion. She personified what it means to be a supermodel. If they were counting a model who has to get fashion works to be included (which yes Cindy stopped doing fashion for a while now) but obviously that wasn't the criteria since Heidi was added and she does 0 fashion work....

It Heidi was added why did they not include Tyra? or Elle MacPherson? so flawed.

If its popularity they're considering well, Cindy for not being very prominent anymore still manages to get over 1 million twitter followers! (that is damn impressive in this facebook/twitter generation who can care less about model icons) AND still gets Vogue covers. Its a total slap in her face and I dont take MDC seriously anymore.

For me a Supermodel criteria is simple: Write down Linda,Naomi,Claudia,Christy,Cindy's resumes and accomplishments and compare your model. if your model has more blanks than check marks. She is NOT a supermodel.

but I like Gisele's other positions.

World famous Gisele Bundchenโ€™s estimate worth R 3063 crore

Nikita Bhalla | Jan 21, 2013, 00:03AM IST

Net Worth until 2013: Rs 3063 crore (approx)

Gisele Bundchen is a one of the worldโ€™s most famous and highly paid fashion model who also went on to become the first billionaire supermodel. She earns a huge amount through her high-fashion clients like Balenciaga, Versace and H&M. Her total fortune has an estimated worth of over Rs 3063 crore.

Gisele Bundchen owns a house in Brentwood worth Rs 10.7 crore, California, apart from a beautiful villa in Costa Rica and a land in Brazilian city Trancoso. Her hotel in Brazil is called the Palladium Executive.

Another highlight of Giseleโ€™s career was when she was amongst the dozen celebrities whose nude photos were sold at Christie's International in New York. Her black and white photo was auctioned for Rs 1 crore.

I think it is. From what I've read she is very good with investing her money.

Her modeling fees have reportedly been astronomical. add to that her real estate investing,co ownership of a hotel,her sandals line,lingerie,skin care and clothing lines and record breaking contracts... I believe it.

I found this :

This has got Grazia Daily thinking about how many dollars the super-supermodels earn per runway metre. Take Gisele Bunchen, for example, who walked a total of 100 metres last year and bagged a whooping $45million, making her the world's highest-paid model. Do the maths and that's $450,000 in her back pocket for walking just one metre.

But that 45 million are from the contracts/licensing/real state right? I read she walked Givenchy and Wang for free! Thats having power. :neo2:

The Heidi comparison is just ridiculous , so walking the runway each episode of PR doesn't count?

yeah I think she can afford to walk shows for free now ^

I wonder if other models hate when Gisele shows up for a catwalk because they know they ain't gettin the campaign and thats pretty much why models do runway in the first place. (to be seen by all the industry big wigs.)

I guess some do, but we're talking about Gisele here, many models follow in her footsteps in order to achieve her success even if it's a small fraction of it. Most must idolize her, I know I do , she broke cultural barriers and defined the modelling world that we saw and still see today (brazilians are always present on the catwalks)!

This is cool from models.com 2000 when she was #1 in the top 50. Interesting to see the models in the list and which ones are still here or not.

Since 1996 I believe ^ I used to google "models" back in the day circa 2001-2 ish and that was the first and only site that would show up.

gustavo I dont know alot of them either, lol. I remember Caroline Ribeiro having an amazing career along with Gisele from the Brazilian models circa 00's. She was the Gucci girl. Also Fernanda Tavares,Ana Claudia Michels and Mariana Weikert.

Funny to see Naomi and Kate jumbled in the mix.
