The social media star has raked in an impressive $22 million over the past year, Forbes reports — enough to see her take the title from Brazilian supermodel Gisele Bundchen, who had held the number one spot since 2002.

The news is perhaps unsurprising, given the number of big-name contracts Jenner currently holds, which include deals with beauty brand Estee Lauder, jewelry house Ippolita, sportswear giant Adidas and lingerie label La Perla. Despite a highly-publicized backlash to a Pepsi commercial earlier this year, she has kept a high-profile, walking the runway for brands such as Fendi, Tom Ford and Alexander Wang, and landing two Vogue covers over the course of 2017. However, according to Forbes, the model’s income stream has been given a healthy boost by her extracurricular business activities, which include paid social media endorsements (she has more than 84 million followers on Instagram), a salary from the reality TV show “Keeping Up With the Kardashians,” and the profits from the ‘Kendall + Kylie’ fashion line she heads with her younger sister.

Reality TV star Kim Kardashian has reportedly hired three off-duty police officers to escort her to and from model Kendall Jenner’s birthday party.

The 36-year-old star, who is married to rapper Kanye West, paid each police officer $100 an hour to keep an eye on her while she attended her half-sister’s 21st birthday on Wednesday, reports tmz.com.

The “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” star has been keeping a low profile since she was robbed by an armed gang of men in Paris, France, last month and, although she’s now safe, she’s not taking any chances now.

Kim’s decision to hire three off-duty officers comes days after she reportedly sacked her personal guard Pascal Duvier.
