Supermodel is the category of the models who are at the peak of their career, they are in huge demand by mega fashion houses or top brands to endorse their products. These Supermodels are paid too handsomely for a ramp-walk or a photoshoot of a few hours. Not only this, after being a supermodel, the doors for acting are opened with welcome. This is the only industry in whole world where females are paid more than their male counterparts and the difference of the pay scale between the two genders is around 75%.
