Luciana Gimenez 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 Tuesday (February 18) that Gimenez is the highest-paid model in the world, pulling in an astonishing $46 million between January 2024 and January 2025, 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-television host 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 Gimenez Burger” chain) in Brasília, a Football Team (the “São Paulo Angels”), has launched her own brand of Vodka (Pure Wondergimenez - Brazil), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Luciana) and a fashion line called “Luciana Gimenez Seduction”.
The ranking is significant for many Luciana fans, who have been waiting for her triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
