Who said strutting down the runway isn't hard work? Well, at least it pays well.

Forbes.com issued its 2008 list of the World's Top-Earning Models, naming Gisele Bundchen as top model for the $35 million she earned over the past 12 months. The tally included her now-expired Victoria's Secret contract as well as a deal to be the new face of Pantene.

"Project Runway's" Heidi Klum is second-best. She banked $14 million as host of Germany's version of "America's Next Top Model," and from campaigns with Diet Coke, Jordache and Mouawad jewelry, Forbes reported.
