Kendall Jenner is the highest paid model in the world, raking in $22 million last year, according to Forbes Magazine. When it comes to being attractive, walking down a runway, and looking into a camera, the 22-year-old just can't be beat. How does she do it?! Everybody wants to know, but when Kendall shared her thoughts with LOVE Magazine, she pissed off many of her fellow models.

"Since the beginning we've been super selective about what shows I would do," she told the publication. "I was never one of those girls who would do like 30 shows a season or whatever the f*ck those girls do. More power to 'em."

These entitled comments got an angry backlash, and not even a delicious can of Pepsi could smooth things over. See, Kendall Jenner can be selective with jobs, because she comes from an extremely privileged background. Other models aren't so fortunate.

"Whatever the f*ck those girls do' is their very best to make their way up AND try to make some money so that they can provide for themselves and their families," wrote mode Daria Strokous. "Oh, and it's 70 shows a season by the way and we are all f*cking proud of every single one of the girls that did it."

Kendall tried to quell the fire by clarifying her comments on Twitter. "I was misrepresented in a recent interview over the wknd," she claimed. "The respect that I have for my peers is immeasurable! I get to experience first hand their tireless commitment, their work ethic, the endless days, the lack of sleep, separation from family and friends, stress of traveling, the toll on physical and mental health, yet they still make it all look effortless and beautiful."

Did the offended models accept Kendall's apology? I don't know. Was that even an apology? She didn't say she was sorry. She said she was taken out of context. I guess that's as close to apologizing as celebrities get. In Hollywood, never say you're sorry - it's a sign of weakness!

Anyway, supermodel Naomi Campbell appeared on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen. Andy asked about her views on Kendall Jenner being the world's highest paid model while "cherry-picking" gigs. Naomi threw brutal shade at Kendall with her icy two word response: "Next question." Savage. After that terse response, she glared daggers into the camera, and a wild Cuba Gooding, Jr. popped into the frame to mean mug.

Andy moved on to the next topic, the Global Citizen Festival, so it's up to viewers to interpret Naomi's pithy reply. She might be upset with Kendall, or she might just be over talking about the issue. It was a dumb comment, she took back, let's move on.

Well, maybe Kendall can repair her relationship with the offended models by bringing them all an ice-cold can of delicious Pepsi. I've heard that soda's great at bringing people together.

 

Earlier this month the big news came out that Gisele Bündchen had toppled from her spot of highest-paid model for the first time since 2002. Who was it that ended her 15-year long reign? None other than Kendall Jenner. The Keeping Up With The Kardashian's star made $22 million last year thanks to the reality show, as well  juicy modelling contracts with La Perla, Estée Lauder and Adidas. Additionally, she had profits from her Kendall + Kylie clothing line and a horde of endorsements thanks to her 85 million Instagram followers. [[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/BYY6G41D1bA/]] There's no doubt the 22-year-old has a very camera-friendly face and a killer physique. She's always decked out in uber-stylish outfits, no matter if she's just thrown on boyfriend jeans and sneakers or is hitting the red carpet in something a little more glitzy. I mean, who can forget this cheeky dress? [[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/BTmikQgjSWy/?taken-by=kendalljenner]] Only someone with real confidence would be brave enough to wear a see-through dress with nothing but a skin-coloured thong. But it helps if you have got a super hot bod that you're not afraid to flaunt. So how does she do it? Well, aside from her Victoria's Secret workouts and training regime with PT Gunnar Peterson, Jenner revealed on her app last month that she's also got a sneaky workout she does at home to stay in shape. Surprisingly, it doesn't seem so hard, especially given that it's totally bearable at 11-minutes long. [[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/BRWANhLj6ph/?taken-by=kendalljenner]] Kendall does this workout when she doesn't really feel like leaving the house or finds herself somewhere that doesn't have a gym. All you need is a mat, a timer and to prepare yourself mentally for the insane burn your abs are about to experience. Wanna give it a go? Here's how.

1. Start with a forearm plank for half a minute

2. Then move straight on to a plank on your hands

3. A side plank on each side

8. Flip over to your back and start crunching

9. Then lift your legs and bring your elbow to your opposite knee, switching to alternate

10. Keep your legs straight and reach for your toes

11. Stay balanced for this crunch variation

12. Train your obliques by going side to side

[caption id="attachment_48389" align="aligncenter" width="913"] Credit: kendallj.com[/caption] [caption id="attachment_48390" align="aligncenter" width="916"] Credit: kendallj.com[/caption]

13. And finally, finish up with an exercise to work your booty

Do the whole thing again if you're feeling extra pumped, or otherwise go guzzle some water and find something nutritious and protein-packed to replenish with. Go on, be good to yourself!

One of the most popular social media platforms available is Instagram, which has offered users across the world the ability to share a wide range of photos, from artistic photography to selfies from nights out. But in recent years, as the service has grown and grown, celebrities have now used it as both an essential promotional tool and a money-maker in itself. The amount people can make off a single Instagram post is astounding, and it only increases with more followers. But which models rank amongst the most-followed on the social media platform?

10. Adriana Lima

The Victoria's Secret Angel boasts 11.4 million followers

[[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/Ba9jBGKlOT2/?taken-by=caradelevingne]]

1. Kendall Jenner

At number one is Kendall Jenner, who has an astounding 85 million followers on Instagram. In addition, she was also the model who gained the most followers this year (12.7 million), and the owner of the most-liked photo of the year

[[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/BWsd0uoDmQu/?taken-by=kendalljenner]] It's incredible when you think about how many people are all looking at photos of the same woman every day - that kind of attention must be overwhelming. Speaking of Instagram sensations, have you seen these adorable twin babies with different skin colours?

As if the 2017 Victoria's Secret fashion show hasn't already been difficult enough. We had all the drama with visas being denied meaning top model Gigi Hadid, as well as performer Katy Perry, couldn't make it to Shanghai to take part. A few models took a tumble on the runway, Bella Hadid had a nip slip, and then the afterparty was shut down by police before it was even midnight. [[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/BbuDDnCnDxK/?taken-by=bellahadid]] Yeesh. And now to top it all off, a long-standing VS Angel and familiar face at the annual spectacle has announced that this show would be her last. Yes, it's true – Alessandra Ambrosio has confirmed to ET and in a personal Instagram post that she'll be hanging up her wings. The news comes after a solid 17 years of working with the lingerie brand. Ambrosio's name is synonymous with Victoria's Secret and the 36-year-old has become one of the most beloved Angels after taking part in the annual show year after year. [[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/BbtsGVmBS0E/?taken-by=alessandraambrosio]] The first VS show she walked in was in Cannes in 2000, and she later became an Angel in 2004 and the first official ambassador for PINK (VS's youthful sister brand) in 2006. She made Angel history after storming down the runway with a massive wing piece weighing in at a record-breaking 30 pounds in 2011. Ambrosio was chosen twice to wear the prestigious Fantasy Bra – first in 2012 and then again in 2014 – each piece covered in precious stones and valued at a staggering $2 million, minimum. You know what else? She's walked in VS fashion shows while pregnant as well as three months postpartum. It's fair to say she's got a huge list of achievements under her belt (garter?), and she'll be ending her long career with the brand on a high. [[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/Bbs3GaUBHCa/?taken-by=alessandraambrosio]] "Words cannot describe how grateful I am to have been working for this amazing brand that inspires me and women all over the world," she wrote in an Instagram post. "In my wildest dreams I would have never imagined doing 17 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Shows. Thank you Ed, and all my Victoria’s Secret family for making these memories unforgettable. Last night was so emotional to say goodbye to my #angelsisters but we put on the biggest and best show ever." [[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/Bbv404dhkfv/?taken-by=alessandraambrosio]] Ambrosio was the one to close the show in Shanghai and wearing a brightly coloured lingerie set complete with floral wings, she said her final goodbye by blowing a kiss and waving to the runway. She told ET that she was quitting the gig so she could spend more time looking after her two children, Anja, nine, and Noah, five. The Brazilian model has been with partner Jamie Mazur since 2008, and it's with him she shares her children. [[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/BbLYh7wBXV7/?taken-by=alessandraambrosio]] She also wants to get into acting a bit more too. She's recently starred alongside Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg in Daddy's Home and Daddy's Home 2. Her acting debut was as one of the "tennis girls" in Casino Royale back in 2006. As well as that, Ambrosio is also intending to spend more time on her swimwear line, Ale by Alessandra. [[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/BXEiIuPF64K/?taken-by=alebyalessandra]] After 17 years, the model deserves a break from the runway. It also means a spot will open up among the Angel elite, and who is next to fill it will be interesting indeed. Maybe one of the Hadids? Or perhaps VS will use the opportunity to finally cast a more curvaceous, plus-sized model. Let's see.

Kylie Jenner has been officially dropped from the Forbes billionaires list.

The 23-year-old reality TV star, model, and influencer was removed from Forbes's 35th annual billionaire list after being erroneously named by the publication as the world's "youngest self-made billionaire" two years ago.

Following the magazine's hasty pronouncement, which was contested by a number of critics, Forbes conducted a more scrupulous report into the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star's finances this year.

In June of 2020, Forbes released a follow-up report claiming that Jenner had faked her way to billionaire status thanks to a number of bogus tax returns.

As of May 2020, Forbes estimated Kylie Jenner's net worth at the more modest figure of $900 million, as opposed to the $1 billion figure cited previously.

In response to the accusations of phony accountancy, a spokesperson representing Kris and Kylie Jenner issued a formal letter to Forbes, which read:

"The accusations that the Jenners, and/or their accountants, falsified tax returns and then lied about their 2016 revenues for the last four years, are absolutely false." 

This bombshell comes the same week that Kylie's half-sister and fellow KUWTK cast member Kim Kardashian was declared a billionaire herself by Forbes.

The publication reports that 40-year-old Kim is currently worth a whopping total of $1 billion, up from $780 million in October.

As a businesswoman, model, influencer, and wife of Kanye West, Kim's astronomical financial profits have been pinned on her two lucrative businesses, KKW Beauty and Skims.

Her estate has also earned cash from her family's reality show, social media sponsorship, and endorsement deals, as well as a number of other savvy investments.

Forbes reports that Kim managed to earn herself a further $200 million after selling approximately 20% of KKW Beauty to Coty.

She first founded the KKW Beauty cosmetics brand back in 2017, following the success of Kylie Jenner’s own personal brand, Kylie Cosmetics.

Kim's first launch of 300,000 contour kits was sold out within the first two hours of launch, and her business went on to generate over $100 million in revenue in the space of a year.

However, only time will tell if Kim's billionaire status will last.
