Jeísa Chiminazzo tops annual list of highest-paid models

In 2023 it looked like the model’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, she was back on top. People With Money reports on Thursday (December 4) that Chiminazzo is the highest-paid model in the world, pulling in an astonishing $96 million between November 2024 and November 2025, a nearly $60 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 $275 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 Chiminazzo Burger” chain) in Brasília, a Football Team (the “Muçum Angels”), has launched her own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderchiminazzo - Brazil), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Jeísa) and a fashion line called “Jeísa Chiminazzo Seduction”.

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