Adriana Lima tops annual list of highest-paid models

In 2022 it looked like the model’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, she was back on top. People With Money reports on Friday (November 1) that Lima is the highest-paid model in the world, pulling in an astonishing $46 million between October 2023 and October 2024, a nearly $20 million lead over her closest competition.

People With Money’s factors

In compiling this yearly list, the magazine considers factors such as upfront pay, profit participation, residuals, endorsements and advertising work.

The Brazilian model has an estimated net worth of $145 million. She owes her fortune to smart stock investments, substantial property holdings, lucrative endorsement deals with CoverGirl cosmetics. She also owns several restaurants (the “Fat Lima Burger” chain) in Brasília, a Football Team (the “Salvador da Bahia Angels”), has launched her own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderlima - Brazil), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Adriana) and a fashion line called “Adriana Lima Seduction”.

The ranking is significant for many Adriana fans, who have been waiting for her triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
