LONDON - Brazilian supermodel Gisele Bundchen is the highest-earning model in the world, according to a list compiled by Forbes.com.

The model has topped the list for the third year running after making $25 million from June 2008 to June 2009, reports contactmusic.com.

Despite raking in a fortune, Bundchen, who married American football star Tom Brady in February, has been hit by the global economic crisis, making $10 million less than in the previous financial year.

But the 28-year-old catwalk queen still has lucrative campaigns with Versace, Dior, True Religion jeans and Ebel watches. She also has her own successful shoe line.

German supermodel Heidi Klum finished in second place with $16 million, earning $2 million more than the previous financial year while British beauty Kate Moss finished at third place with $8.5 million, earning a million dollars more than the previous year.
