World's Wealthiest Model Named Gisele Bundchen

Brazilian supermodel Gisele Bundchen is the highest-earning model in the world, according to a list compiled by Forbes.com.

The model has topped the list for the third year running after making $25 million from June 2008 to June 2009, reports contactmusic.com.

Despite raking in a fortune, Bundchen, who married American football star Tom Brady in February, has been hit by the global economic crisis, making $10 million less than in the previous financial year.

But the 28-year-old catwalk queen still has lucrative campaigns with Versace, Dior, True Religion jeans and Ebel watches. She also has her own successful shoe line.

German supermodel Heidi Klum finished in second place with $16 million, earning $2 million more than the previous financial year while British beauty Kate Moss finished at third place with $8.5 million, earning a million dollars more than the previous year.

Awkward!

Too close for comfort?

Gisele Bündchen and Tom Brady braved the freezing temperatures of New York City to party at hotspot Butter Monday night. (Brady, whose Patriots just earned a spot in the Feb. 3 Super Bowl, wasn't drinking.) Just one problem: Her ex boyfriend, Leonardo DiCaprio, was sitting just two tables away.

The old flames did not interact, with Gisele cuddling up to the NFL quarterback in a corner banquette while DiCaprio spent most of the night messaging on his PDA.

The Oscar-nominee and Victoria's Secret supermodel had a tempestuous six-year relationship. They split – for good – in November 2005.

As the night wound down, Bündchen and Brady left hand-in-hand – and DiCaprio didn't even look up.
