Amanda Lepore tops annual list of highest-paid models

In 2021 it looked like the model’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, she was back on top. People With Money reports on Monday (April 22) that Lepore is the highest-paid model in the world, pulling in an astonishing $82 million between March 2023 and March 2024, a nearly $50 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 American model-artist has an estimated net worth of $245 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 Lepore Burger” chain) in Washington, a Football Team (the “Cedar Grove Angels”), has launched her own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderlepore - US), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Amanda) and a fashion line called “Amanda Lepore Seduction”.

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