Gisele Bündchen Is Top-Earning Model According to Forbes

We know this much is true: It doesn't suck to be Gisele Bündchen.

Insanely good looks? Check. Sexy husband? Check. Cute baby? Check. Piles and piles of money? Check, check, check.

And despite being preggo for much of 2009, the Brazilian supermodel has once again topped Forbes' list of the highest-earning models with an estimated income of $25 million, the magazine reports.

(Meanwhile, you woke up to a pimple, followed shortly by an "insufficient funds" alert at the ATM. Joy.)

Campaigns for True Religion, London Fog, Dolce & Gabbana and her own Ipanema by Gisele line reportedly helped Gisele rake in the dough.

Heidi Klum took the #2 spot with $16 million dollars in earnings, while Kate Moss' $9 million paycheck helped her place third, according to Forbes.

Doutzen Kroes, Adriana Lima, Natalia Vodianova, Alessandra Ambrosio, Daria Werbowy, Miranda Kerr, and Carolyn Murphy (the only American on the list) reportedly rounded out the top 10.

Though the fashion industry has taken a hit due to the recession, it's expected that up-and-comers like Lara Stone will start commanding higher paychecks, the magazine says.

Until then, it's Gisele who's laughing all the way to the bank. Lucky cow.
