This is How Much a Victoria’s Secret Model Makes in a Year?

Sit yourself down, this won't be easy to hear.

Ah shitballs, we’ve gone into the wrong career.

The Victoria’s Secret fashion show was last night and if you weren’t distracted by the toned goddesses sauntering on the catwalk with giant angel wings, you probably wondered how much money these women actually make.

Well sit down because this isn’t going to be easy to hear.

Reports say that each angel is contracted €100,000 but many make more with lucrative sponsorship deals. Although according to The Post each model is required to dedicate 50 days to working for Victoria’s Secret and that can often prevent them from working other jobs.

Forbes have estimated the earnings of the top models in the world and the more senior Angels are insanely minted.

They estimate Adriana Lima earns around $9mil a year working with brands like Maybelline and Vogue Eyewear.

Alessandra Ambrosio is on about $5 mil, but she has her own swimwear line.

Candice Swanepoel has a Versace contract that earns her $5 mil a year too.

While poor Lily Aldridge only makes $2 mil.

Meanwhile Kendall Jenner is laughing her way to the bank with her $ 4mil salary.

Gigi Hadid is racking up $2.5 mil but she’s a relative new comer so no doubt that will soon double.
