The socialite, who appears in Keeping Up with the Kardashians, earned $5.45m (£3.4m) in the last year, according to the Daily Star Sunday.
This includes $400,000 (£250,000) for starring in the E! reality show, with the rest of her earnings coming from commercials, personal appearances and adverts on her website.
The figures were revealed by US talent agency Platinum Rye Entertainment.
Boss Ryan Schinman said: "She’s not an actor and she’s not a singer. But when you get the attention she does, you’re worthy of being called a brand in your own right."
The report also claims that Armani once paid the star $25,000 (£15,000) to write a four-line message on her Twitter page.
