The Brazilian supermodel has also nabbed the title of "world's most powerful model" thanks to an appearance on Forbes' just-released "Celebrity 100" list of the most powerful stars in the world.
Bündchen secured a power ranking of 85 on the prestigious list -- well behind top dog Oprah Winfrey, Beyonce, and Lady Gaga -- thanks to a $25 million salary and a combination of social and media exposure.
"A multinational brand name, Gisele remains the industry's most sought-out face and body," Forbes gushes.
Though down 13 on the list, from 2009's #72 spot, Bündchen still edged out #86 Heidi Klum and #91 Kate Moss, the only other supermodels on the list.
Good work, girl. Just try to not let it go to your head, will ya? We have a low tolerance for annoyingly perfect supermodels.
Meanwhile, see what the stunner wore for the recent christening of her son Benjamin.

What don't you get? Your opinion of beauty if not what makes Gisele the most successful model. Beautiful faces are just part of it, and in fact, the most successful supermodels all were a little different, it makes them stand out.
And she does the work and products sell with her.
