Sophie Thalmann 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 Wednesday (November 20) that Thalmann 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 French 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 Thalmann Burger” chain) in Paris, a Football Team (the “Bar-le-Duc Angels”), has launched her own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderthalmann - France), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Sophie) and a fashion line called “Sophie Thalmann Seduction”.
The ranking is significant for many Sophie fans, who have been waiting for her triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
