What Is Ana Beatriz Barros' Net Worth?

Ana Beatriz Barros is a Brazilian supermodel who has a net worth of $14 million. Ana Beatriz Barros began her modeling career when she was thirteen years old. She and her sister, Patricia, were on vacation with their family in Rio de Janeiro when a scout from Elite Model Management approached them and pitched his services.

After placing second in the Elite Model Look contest in Brazil and in the International Elite Model contest, Elite Management sent her photos to GUESS?, and Ana went on to book work with GUESS?, Christian Dior, Oakley, L'Oreal, Victoria's Secret, and Chanel. She was chosen as the face of Jennifer Lopez's lingerie line in 2004, has appeared on the covers of such magazines as "Marie Claire," "Allure," "W," and "Elle" and has been featured in the "Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue" seven times.

Early Life

Ana Beatriz Barros was born on May 29, 1982, in Itabira, Minas Gerais, Brazil. Her mother, Sonia, primarily stayed at home with the family while her father, Reinato, worked as a mechanical engineer. The family moved to Rio de Janeiro when Barros was young, and she spent her childhood there. She is of German, Portuguese, Italian, and Spanish descent.

Career

When Barros was 13, she was vacationing with her older sister, Patricia, on the beaches of Rio de Janeiro. They were spotted by a representative from Elite Model Management. She was encouraged by the Elite office in Rio to participate in the Elite Model Look competition in 1996. Ana ended up being the runner-up in the competition to Diana Kovalchuk. She later competed for international Elite Model Look, placing second worldwide. Elite then sent her portfolio and recent headshots to the fashion brand GUESS?, which led GUESS? to book her for the Millennium GUESS campaign along with fellow Brazilian model Alessandra Ambrosia. The two quickly become friends.

After working with GUESS, Barros began booking more and more work with notable fashion brands. She has worked with Christian Dior, Armani Jeans, Oakley, L'Oréal, Chanel cosmetics, and Jennifer Lopez's JLO fashion line.

In addition to print work, Ana has walked in runway shows for brands like Valentino, Missoni, Gucci, Christian Dior, Versace, Emporio Armani, BCBG, DKNY, Jean-Paul Gaultier, Dolce & Gabbana, Michael Kors, Balmain, Etro, Loewe, Vivienne Westwood, Diane Von Furstenberg, Chloe, Giles Deacon, Stella McCartney, John Galliano, Thierry Mugler, Guy Laroche, Karl Lagerfeld, Mango, and Elie Saab, among others.

Her career was particularly busy in the early 2000s. At that time, she began working with Victoria's Secret and was selected to walk in the highly-anticipated Victoria's Secret Fashion Show for the first time in 2002. She would subsequently walk again in the show in 2003, 2005, 2006, 2008, and 2009.

Ana also was first featured in the "Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue" in 2002. She would appear in the annual issue in 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, and 2008. Other magazines that she has been featured in or on the cover of include "Glamour," "Vogue," "Marie Claire," and "Allure."
