Forbes has just released its list of the highest-paid male models in the world, and coming in at No. 1 is Sean O’Pry, who has appeared in campaigns for Viktor & Rolf, H&M, Versace and Calvin Klein. The 24-year-old native of Kennesaw, GA made an estimated $1.5 million from September 2012 to September 2013.
Of course, that doesn’t even compare to the $83 million earned by his female equivalent — Gisele Bundchen, who brought in a whopping $42 million last year.
Interesting note: According to Forbes, the 10 highest-paid male models only earned a total of $8 million last year, while their female counterparts earned a staggering $83 million during the same time period.
But, back to the boys. O’Pry is followed in the list by Dolce & Gabbana muse David Gandy, who earned $1.4 million; Simon Nessman – who came in at $1.1 million; Arthur Kulkov – who brought home $905,000; and Noah Mills who amassed $740,000.
