Barely one year into runway modelling and still in her teens, Kendall Jenner proved her mettle to the world as she entered Forbes' list of highest paid models for the first time.

The "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" star has now become the youngest member of the world's highest paid models, Forbes reported. She has beaten established models like Kate Upton and Jourdan Dunn with her $4million annual income to land at the number eight spot among world's highest paid models of the year.

Jenner has finally joined the league of supermodels like Gisele Bundchen, who is topping the list with $44 million, $9 million net worth Cara Delevingne and Miranda Kerr who named as the fifth highest paid model with a net worth of $5.5 million.

Jenner was seen on "KUWTK" since early age, though, it became apparent lately that she is keen to break free from her family's reality TV show and carve her own niche in the fashion world. She landed her first modelling job at the age of 14 when she campaigned for the brand Forever 21.

But the brunette beauty's big break came when she made her debut in fashion weeks' runway in Spring 2014 which was met by opposition from her fellow models that she has landed the gig due to her family name.

The 19-year-old went on to prove her critics wrong when she was made the brand ambassador of Estee Lauder in November 2014 followed by a Calvin Klein campaign in March.

Most recently, she was seen walking down the runway for fashion big wigs like Michael Kors, Diane von Furstenberg, and Givenchy shows at recently held New York Fashion Week and will be seen again in runway shows in Paris, London and Milan over the next month, Daily Mail reported.

Here is the list of this year's highest paid models:

1. Gisele Bundchen $44 million

2. Cara Delevingne $9 million

2. Adriana Lima $9 million

3. Doutzen Kroes $7.5 million

4. Natalia Vodianova $7 million

5. Miranda Kerr $5.5 million

5. Joan Smalls $5.5 million

6. Lara Stone $5 million

6. Alessandra Ambrosio $5 million

6. Candice Swanepoel $5 million
