Forbes.com announced yesterday that the incredibly hot Gisele Bundchen is officially the highest paid model in the world.
Raking in more than £15million in the past year this marks the third year Gisele Bundchen has been top of the list of highest-paid models and at only 28 years old, the girl has done well. Despite this success though, it appears even the most beautiful and most paid model in the world is also subject to the current climate as the list reports she is £6mill down on the year before due to the economic crisis.
With campaigns for Versace, Dior, True Religion Jeans, and Ebel watches. Not to mention, her own line of shoes and flip-flops, called Ipanema Shoes it easy to see how she keeps the money flowing in her direction. Recently married to NFL Patriots player Tom Brady (one lucky, lucky, lucky man), it’s been rumoured Gisele is pregnant, however the couple are denying it.
German model Heidi Klum came in second earning £10million and British star Kate Moss was placed third with £5.8million, which was up by £620,000 upon last year. The top 5 highest-earning models didn’t change from last year.

mediahustler is a young man and like many others, the appeal of a hot older women is more than a little alluring. Fortunately for us, to suffice our needs the latest edition of Australian magazine KURV has done us proud…
Remember Brooke Shields of Blue Lagoon fame? Well shes back. Out of the bright lights of celebrity as such since her Calvin Klein lingerie campaign which she famously taunted “nothing gets between me and my Calvin’s”. More recently she appeared in an episode of Sex And The City or more controversially in an incident in which the US TV star of 24 Kiefer Sutherland assaulted a man whilst defending Shields honour – apprently.
She has thankfully returned for an initmate photoshoot by photographer Tony Duran in which she and model Chris Fawcett reveal what every guy is probably dreaming of.
Duran said of the shoot “It is a raw, sexy, yet sophisticated shoot, 28 pages of Brooke.”

The cutting edge, fashion and style influence bible V Magazine is launching it’s first ever Swimsuit issue is the fashionista’s high gloss, couture style version of a playboy porno mag. With Mario Testino behind the lens and six of the sexiest and most recognisable supermodels of today, the results do not disappoint.
Stephen Gan (editor in chief of V Magazine) said of the issue that Testino and he “aimed for something like a cool fashion insider’s answer to the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issues. We chose the sexiest bodies in the world and those that had a special connection to the Testino world.”
Claudia, Kate, Gisele, Naomi, Eva and Daria grace the collectable, colourful covers and if like me, you believe that no swimsuit shoot would be complete without the essential shots of “girl laying semi-neked across a motorbike” and the essential “wet white t-shirt” then believe me, we have been catered to, royally.
A few mediahustler favourite images below, ENJOY!
One for the ladies…

Emerging photographer Nicholas Andrews has quickly become a mediahustler favourite – fusing classic-retro stylings with bold, new-age directions, this artist has managed to capture images reminiscent of Herbert List, Bruce Weber and Terry O’Neill.
His portfolio includes amongst others, ‘Life on Mars’, a collection of stylish Bowie meets Robert Palmer shots which encapsulates and era not forgotten but pulled into a contemporary fashion and ‘Ladykiller’, a provocative set of headshots which evoke a slight remembrance of A Clockwork Orange.
There is a definite slant towards film-influenced art direction which really connects with the viewer. See James Dean of the East End for an example of this.
Definitely one to follow, see more of Andrews ‘Retro-Vista’ work click here.
Whilst trawling through t’interweb I came across these new trainers known only as the NIKE VANDAL HI SUPREME EX ROCK’N’ROLL’s, released in black last season they now come in white with silver accents on the tongue tab and the strap, as well as a matching silver metallic sole.

Ouch, it appears Sam Ronson has moved on from former lover Lindsay Lohan as reported by celeb-gossip blogger www.wwtdd.com who revealed that a source from the Chateau Marmont had said Sam was ”clearly with another woman — somewhat of a Lindsay look-alike, but with very dark hair … They sure looked very cozy, if you know what I mean.”
Whilst it can be hard to get over a break-up, I have to admit, Lindsay – I am here if you need me, REBOUND, HOT!
