Kendall Jenner is the highest-paid model in the world for the second year in a row, according to Forbes. The reality-star-turned-runway-favorite earned $22.5 million in the 12 months before June 2018, topping big names like Gisele Bündchen, Karlie Kloss, Chrissy Teigen, and her friends, Bella and Gigi Hadid.
Jenner has major modeling contracts to thank for her hefty salary. She's landed deals with brands like Adidas, Estée Lauder, Calvin Klein, and others, Forbes reports. The 23-year-old holds a strong lead, as Karlie Kloss comes in second with $13 million-which Forbes attributes to her deals with Swarovski, Adidas, Away luggage, and more.
Bündchen, whom Jenner dethroned as the highest-paid model in 2017, fell from second place to fifth in 2018, where she's tied with Cara Delevingne at $10 million. The runway vet released a memoir this year (Lessons: My Path to a Meaningful Life) amidst starring in ads for Stewart Weitzman and Brazilian brands.
