10. Gisele Bündchen

Supermodel Gisele Bündchen was born and raised in Horizontina, a southern region in Brazil. She is sixth-generation German of Brazilian descent. The exotic beauty dropped out of school at 14, after a scout from Elite Model Management spotted her at a mall and convinced her to make modelling her career. She moved São Paulo to launch her modeling career that same year. Gisele has since become one of the highest paid supermodels in the world, working with brands like Victoria’s Secret, Marc Jacobs, Michael Kors, Dolce & Gabbana, Christian Dior, Valentino, Versace, Givenchy, H&M and most recently, Under Armour. Last year, Gisele earned more than her professional footballer husband, Tom Brady. She has an estimated net worth of $320 million.
