Bündchen, 32, holds the top spot for the seventh year in a row, earning seven times as much as second-place earner, Miranda Kerr, according to Forbes.

The Victoria's Secret model made $42 million in the last year, thanks to a partial stake in a Brazilian footwear company, Grendene, sales from her eco-friendly cosmetics company, Sejaa, and multi-year contracts with international campaigns with Pantene, Oral-B and Sky HDTV.

Bündchen and quarterback husband Tom Brady welcomed a daughter this year.

The list included seven Victoria's Secret Angels, including the brand's longest-running model and first model of Chinese descent.
