In Gisele’s perfect world, she and her loving family would be out of the spotlight and deep in the jungle, living “like Tarzan and Jane.” “If I could choose, I’d be bare feet, with animals all around me and living in a tree house,” said Gisele, who made $47 million in 2014. “I’m at my happiest around nature.”
