While reports have said Gisele Bündchen is on her way to becoming the world's richest supermodel, it appears that Tom Brady's wife has a long way to go.
The website CelebrityNetWorth.com has released a list of the 15 richest supermodels on the planet -- and Kathy Ireland gets their top honors with a net worth of $350 million.
GISELE BUNDCHEN COULD BECOME BILLIONAIRE OFF LINGERIE LINE
While Bündchen comes in second, her net worth is estimated to be $250 million. Cindy Crawford followed with a net worth of $100 million, with Tyra Banks on her tail at $90 million. Christie Brinkley, Heidi Klum, Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell, Elle Macpherson, and Claudia Schiffer rounded out the top 10.
At the same time, Ireland appears on the new issue of Forbes magazine along with the headline "Supermodel Supermogul." According to the magazine, the model who appeared in 13 consecutive Sports Illustrated swimsuit issues has made her fortune from licensing her name for more than 15,000 products, from mattresses to windows, under the umbrella of Kathy Ireland Worldwide.
Apparently, Ireland's brands sell some $2 billion worth of retail products a year. Forbes notes that this is twice as much as housewear guru Martha Stewart.
However, Bündchen still has time to catch up. The model recently got into the entrepreneurial game too. Last May, she launched Gisele Bündchen Brazilian Intimates in Latin America, Portugal, Japan, and Israel. The brand will soon be available worldwide.
