Gisele Bundchen is one of the most famous models of the recent years. Except for a lengthy, successful and acclaimed career in modeling, Bundchen has also been known to dabble in acting. In terms of wealth, Forbes magazine deemed her to be the highest-paid model in the world, and at the same time, the sixteenth richest woman in entertainment. In 2007, Gisele Bundchen earned $33 million, while in 2008 she earned $35 million, which were added to her pre-existent fortune of $150 million.

 

Moreover, Gisele Bundchen was also listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as the richest supermodel in the world. So far, the supermodel has served as the face of over 20 brands from across the world and she has also appeared on the most magazine covers as opposed to any other supermodel.

 

Over the weekend, Gisele Bundchen and her boyfriend, Tom Brady, got engaged in Los Angeles. Tom Brady, who is the 31-year-old quarterback for the New England Patriots, proposed to Gisele Bundchen on Friday, offering her a diamond solitaire.

 

During this week, Gisele and her friends will be preparing the preliminary wedding details. Sources close to the couple said that Brady’s request was met with an immediate positive answer from Gisele. Apparently, the two want to have either a huge, fancy wedding in the spring or a smaller, more private and quicker wedding in Costa Rica. The latter would be more convenient as Gisele Bundchen has a home there.
