It’s not a surprise that some of the biggest names in the entertainment world are also some of the richest. After decades of success, these five superstars are literal billionaires with careers in music, acting, presenting, writing, directing, and so much more. Not only are they wealthy, but every person on the list is also a philanthropist. Here is the reported net worth of the biggest stars on the planet—and how they made their fortunes. 
1. George Lucas
Taylor Hill/FilmMagic
With a net worth of $5.5 billion and a career spanning decades, George Lucas is one of Hollywood’s top earners. He founded Lucasfilm in 1971 and sold it to Disney for 4 billion, having already made a fortune from the movies and merchandising. “I took over control of the merchandising not because I thought it was going to make me rich, but because I wanted to control it. I wanted to make a stand for social, safety and quality reasons,” Lucas says. “I didn’t want someone using the name Star Wars on a piece of junk.”
2. Steven Spielberg
Isaiah Trickey/FilmMagic
Steven Spielberg’s net worth is a cool $3.7 billion, which he has amassed over decades of writing, producing, and directing some of Hollywood’s most popular and enduring films. “There's a whole other subset of individuals who want to tell their stories, and they're telling them right now on their iPhones, and they're telling them right now on social media and on Twitter and on Instagram and on TikTok,” Spielberg says about the next generation of filmmakers. “I have my eye out for them all the time because that is ... those are the individuals that should know what goes into preparing a script.”
3. Oprah Winfrey

With a net worth of $2.6 billion, Oprah Winfrey has done it all—acting, presenting, producing, writing, being a top executive… The list is seemingly endless. Her best advice for fans? To practice self-care.  "The best way I know for sure to stay in steady makeover mode is to take care of yourself," she says. "To feed yourself with love and loving thoughts. To eat food that's delicious to you and to your body. To engage in loving practices, like giving yourself the gift of stillness at least five minutes a day. To surround yourself with people who bring you light, and to banish all forms of negative energy."
4. Kim Kardashian

Kim Kardashian has an empire worth $1.8 billion—not bad for someone who was once known as just Paris Hilton’s best friend. "My message was to anyone who wants to be successful in building a business or brand having come from that very specific space — reality show or social media fame — is to work hard,” she says. “It’s not easy. You don’t just post something on social media and overnight you become a success."
5. Rihanna
Axelle/Bauer-Griffin/FilmMagic
Rihanna is worth an impressive $1.7 billion, making her the wealthiest female musician on the planet. Aside from her impressive musical career, she is also the founder of the mega-successful beauty brand Fenty Beauty. “I never thought I’d make this much money, so a number is not going to stop me from working,” she says. “I’m working out of what I love to do, what I’m passionate about.”

The 1990s gave rise to a generation of talented and iconic stars whose fame has endured throughout the years. From musicians to actors, these individuals captured our hearts with their talent and charm. Surprisingly, many of these '90s stars have managed to maintain their youthful looks and vibrant energy. In this article, we explore the secrets behind their age-defying appearances and delve into their personal approaches to wellness, fitness, and self-care. Join us as we discover how these stars from the past continue to shine brightly in the present, inspiring us all to prioritize our well-being and live our best lives.
1. Gwen Stefani
Frazer Harrison/Getty Images
Gwen Stefani first broke out as the lead singer of No Doubt. In a 2012 interview with Marie Claire, she talked about wanting to find more balance in her life. "I've got myself in a lot of trouble by not saying no. This last year I kind of stopped working out. I think my body just needed a break. And so I did that, and focused more on feeling good as opposed to beating myself up. I have learned to delegate. It still looks awesome, but did I pick out the buttons? No, I didn't. I missed the last two Fashion Weeks because they were when school started; I can't miss the first week of kindergarten."
2. Sarah Michelle Geller
Dominique Charriau/WireImage
Sarah Michelle Geller is a ‘90s icon, starring in the series Buffy The Vampire Slayer and All My Children, and films I Know What You Did Last Summer and Cruel Intentions. Last year, Gellar gave an interview to Shape, where she talked about her wellness. Geller says that she is working on putting herself first. "I've been flying a lot and it's the old adage of put your mask on first and then you put your child's on,” she says. “And it's counterintuitive because as a parent, you just want to take care of your child, but the truth is if I don't take care of me, I can't take care of you. So that, to me, is self care."
3. Catherine Zeta-Jones
Marc Piasecki/FilmMagic
Catherine Zeta-Jones does a variety of things to stay in shape. She shared her favorite workouts in an interview with The Telegraph. “I have a ballet barre in my gym. I turn the music up so loud that the walls are pulsating, and I go for it for an hour. I also hula-hoop, walk on the treadmill, do the elliptical [machine]. I try to keep the whole body working."
4. Liv Tyler

Armageddon star Liv Tyler works with trainer, Russell Bateman, to keep herself in shape. Bateman opened up about working with the actress in a 2017 interview with People. "She has so many things to try and juggle but she really is an example for modern day women and female empowerment. Liv, like a lot of the girls I train, is just trying to become her most optimal self. Good sleep, rest and de-stressing all contribute to optimal shape and mood."5. Sandra Bullock

Sandra Bullock has a busy schedule. Luckily, she always squeezes time in for a workout. She shared her favorites in an interview with InStyle. "I do Pilates, kickboxing, weight training. When I’m in Austin, I run or ride a bike. If I can work out every day, I will." 
6. Halle Berry
Jeff Kravitz/FilmMagic
Halle Berry has amazing skin, and she shared some of her tips on Instagram early this year. "Cleansing is really important. You can't miss it. You gotta do it morning and you have to do it at night.This is going to serve you well as the years go by. Don't forget to get down here and get your neck. Oftentimes we do the face and we forget that our face is attached to our neck and that also needs to be cleaned and needs some love." 
7. Tom Cruise
Karwai Tang/WireImage
Tom Cruise still does a lot of his stunts in his films. He shares how he stays in shape in an interview. Cruise says that he does a variety of things to stay in shape. “Sea-kayaking, caving... fencing, treadmill, weights... rock-climbing, hiking... I jog... I do so many different activities.”
8. Mark Wahlberg
Slaven Vlasic/Getty Images
In an interview with The Wall Street Journal, Mark Wahlberg revealed that his exercise approach has changed. “Getting the right amount of rest, really staying focused. My spirituality, my faith has got to be the center of it all. I don't have to do as much cardio, I don't have to spend as much time in the gym and I feel like I am getting better results.”
9. Keanu Reeves
Axelle/Bauer-Griffin/FilmMagic
Keanu Reeves works with trainer, Patrick Murphy, to help him stay in shape. For Murphy, Reeves’ recovery process is just as important as the workouts. “KR possesses a serious commitment to ice baths, which I’m all for as well,” Murphy told GQ. “One of the best recovery practices to do after all of the ground and pound stunt training is an ice bath.”
10. Leonardo DiCaprio
Samir Hussein/WireImage
Leonardo DiCaprio became a star in the ‘90s. He starred in some of the decade’s most iconic films, including Titanic and What’s Eating Gilbert Grape? In 2015, DiCaprio opened up about his career in an interview with Wired. “I don’t think anyone really gets used to being recognized around the world. It kind of feels like a videogame at times, especially with paparazzi and people following you and things of that nature. But it’s part of who I am now. It’s part of my life as long as I choose to do what I do as a profession, and I love what I do. I think I survive because I don’t limit myself. If there’s some experience I want to have or a place I want to go, I do it. I think that’s how I bring some semblance of normality to my life.”
11. Macaulay Culkin
Taylor Hill/WireImage
Macaulay Culkin has been living a more low-key life since his roles in the ‘90s. He opened up about how he approaches life in a 2016 interview with The Guardian. “I try to figure out what makes me happy – and not in a superficial way. I keep my soul fit.”

From childhoods marred by poverty to reaching unimaginable heights of success, these ten celebrities have defied the odds and turned their lives around. Viola Davis, an EGOT winner, once resorted to extreme measures like stealing and scavenging for food. Country music icon Dolly Parton grew up in a one-bedroom cabin in Tennessee. Selena Gomez and her mother faced constant financial struggles, even running out of gas frequently. Rapper Cardi B's upbringing in the Bronx and her stint as a stripper shaped her journey. Kelly Clarkson experienced the harsh realities of living paycheck to paycheck. These stories of resilience and triumph serve as a reminder that dreams can indeed become a reality, no matter the circumstances.
1. Viola Davis
Amy Sussman/WireImage
EGOT winner Viola Davis opened up about her background in a speech at the 2014 Variety Power of Women event. "Although my childhood was filled with many happy memories, it was also spent in abject poverty. I was one of the 17 million kids in this country who didn't know where their next meal was coming from. And I did everything to get food. I've stolen for food. I jumped in huge garbage bins with maggots for food. I had befriended people in the neighborhood who I knew had mothers who cooked three meals a day for food, and I sacrificed a childhood for food and grew up in immense shame."
2. Dolly Parton
Theo Wargo/WireImage
The country music icon is currently worth over $600 million. However, Dolly Parton wasn’t always well-off. Parton notably grew up poor, even talking about her background in her song, “Coat of Many Colors.” She grew up in a one-bedroom cabin in Tennessee with farmer parents. 
3. Selena Gomez

Singer and actress Selena Gomez was raised by her single mother in Texas. Before she began acting, she and her mother struggled to make ends meet. She told E! News in 2011, "I remember my mom would run out of gas all of the time, and we'd sit there and have to go through the car and get quarters and help her get gas."
4. Cardi B
Arturo Holmes/Getty Images
Rapper Cardi B grew up in the Bronx, and is open about her struggle to make ends meet. Cardi notably worked as a stripper, before starring on VH1’s Love and Hip Hop. "I have real good parents, they poor," she said to Global Grind in 2016. "They have regular, poor jobs and whatnot. They real good people and whatnot, I was just raised in a bad society."
5. Kelly Clarkson
Kayla Oaddams/WireImage
Before winning the first season of American Idol, Kelly Clarkson grew up poor in Texas. She opened up about her background, and how it’s impacted her, in an interview with The Dallas Morning News. “We lived prepay check to prepay check. I was like, whatever I'm gonna do, I just don't wanna have to worry [like] that. I always used to hate when people would be like, 'Money doesn't buy everything,' when you are little and poor. Rich people say that, not poor people. I don't know one poor person that's going, 'Money doesn't buy happiness.' It pays you to get out of eviction notices."
6. Daniel Oyelowo
Daniel Leal/Getty Images
The actor and his family moved to Los Angeles for his career. Unfortunately, they had to live through the 2008 recession. Oyelowo opened up about this in an interview with The Times. “It got pretty dark for a moment. I’ll never forget, my wife and I got down to our last $3. We couldn’t go to the hole in the wall because we were at rock bottom. And the reason I know it was $3 is because I remember standing in our house and giving her $2 and, almost symbolically, keeping the extra dollar in my wallet. And just feeling like, ‘What did we do coming here? What were we thinking?’" But Oyelowo didn’t give up, and booked his breakout role in The Butler.
7. Eminem

Rapper Eminem was raised by a single mother, and they moved around a bit, before settling in Detroit. He would drop out of high school after struggling with bullying. After trying to make it in the local rap scene, Eminem signed with Dr. Dre in 1998, and his career took off. Eminem’s backstory would be explained in the film, 8 Mile, where he plays a fictionalized version of himself.
8. Jim Carey

Actor Jim Carey opened up about his backstory on an episode of The Howard Stern Show. When Carey was young, his father lost his job, and he had to drop out of high school and work to help support his family. Carey previously worked as a janitor and security guard in his teens. "My dad was cool, man. That's the one thing about therapy, they kinda focus you on what did your parents do, what did they not do. Yeah sure, in certain ways, they made me grow up fast. But the list of what they did for me was so enormous."
9. Justin Bieber
Kevin Mazur/Getty Images
Before being discovered on YouTube, Justin Bieber and his single mother were living in a rat infested house and sleeping on a pull-out couch. His mother had to work several jobs to make ends meet, and Bieber would perform on the street to help out. 
10. Jay-Z
Axelle/Bauer-Griffin/FilmMagic
Before becoming the successful rapper and businessman he is today, Jay-Z, born Shawn Carter, grew up poor in New York City. He and his three siblings were raised by their single mother. Carter dropped out of high school his sophomore year, and turned to selling drugs. Carter also began freestyling, before working with Big Daddy Kane in 1994.

In an AMA in her newsletter, Jennifer Lopez talked about her workout routine. "I think as we grow and mature, we start losing muscle and start aching," she said. "The more strength we can get in our body by lifting is really something that makes me feel strong, able and empowered. That along with stretching and staying limber and mobile are the most important things."
2. Pitbull

Lopez has collaborated with Pitbull several times. The rapper talked about the importance of stamina in an interview with Eat This, Not That. “Being on tour takes a mental and physical toll when traveling from planes to venues to hotels all across the world," he says. "It's important that my energy is always at maximum capacity so I can give fans the best show every time we play."
3. Leonardo DiCaprio

Lopez famously texted Leonardo DiCaprio during her Carpool Karaoke segment. The actor talked about his new movie, Killers Of The Flower Moon to Deadline. “We did a lot of work to try to help Marty do what he does best, which is to tell a very human story,” says DiCaprio. “To get to the dark side of the human condition but also understand the complexities. Here you had the wealthiest nation, the richest per capita people in the world. You had this melting pot in Oklahoma where freed slaves had created their own economy, and the Osage emerged as this wealthy culture. But you also had during that period the rise of the KKK and white supremacy and this clash of cultures. For some of these white settlers, it was like a gold rush to take advantage of people of color.”
4. Ryan Seacrest

Lopez was a judge on American Idol, hosted by Ryan Seacrest. He shared his diet secrets with People. "I'm like con-vegan, I call it conveniently vegan. So I do cheat and eat things every once a while, but I try and mostly stay plant-based and fish-based occasionally."
5. Ben Affleck

Lopez’s husband, Ben Affleck, talked about how he got in shape to play Batman to Men’s Journal. He says that he worked with trainer, Walter Norton Jr., to help him stay in shape. “Getting ready for this role meant working hard, day in and day out with Walter. But it was the kind of work where I felt gains in not only my size, but also my mental and physical health.”
6. Jennifer Garner

Lopez gets along with her husband’s ex, actress Jennifer Garner. The two are seen doing activities with their kids together. Garner works with trainer, Beth Nicely, to help her stay in shape. "On a typical day we'll do a solid warm-up and then we'll get the blood flowing and the heart rate up a bit with some cardio dances," Nicely told Shape. "We might do two to four dances and then I'll usually take her through a plyometric box series." 
7. Cameron Diaz
Shutterstock
In an interview on the GOOP podcast, Lopez’s friend and co-star, Cameron Diaz, shared that she intermittently fasts.  “I’m the mother of a two-year-old, so we’re both having a little of this and a little of that, and do I need to be snacking as much as she is all day? Doing a little reset kind of brings you back. It helps you be more present at the moment, staying aware of what you’re saying and what you’re doing.”
8. Leah Remini

Lopez and Leah Remini have been friends for years. In an Instagram post at the tail-end of the pandemic, Remini revealed how she’s approaching things. She captioned the post, “I got to celebrate this weekend for my birthday. It was a night filled with family, friends, friends that are family and lots of Love & Laughter. And as we all prepare for our lives to open up again, let us all be reminded to take nothing for granted. Dance, eat the cake, take the chance, forgive & reconnect! More pics to come.”
9. Keith Urban

Lopez and Keith Urban were judges on American Idol together. In a 2010 interview with Men’s Health, Urban talked about his approach to taking care of his voice. "I had to start thinking like an athlete and not a musician. The vocal cords are a muscle, and you have to stretch your muscles and drink lots of water and take care of them. Your body just shifts, and you gotta go with it.”
10. Harry Connick Jr.
Shutterstock
Lopez’s fellow American Idol judge, Harry Connick Jr., shared his diet and workout secrets with The Telegraph. “I work out for 30 minutes every day at home in Connecticut; sometimes I do kettlebells. I don’t like to eat before noon – I’m an intermittent faster, otherwise I really go to extremes. I can eat a whole pizza or eight doughnuts, it’s like I don’t have an off switch. I don’t drink at all, either.”

"But at the same time, even you saying that – you, the most extraordinary, perfect human being on the planet, inside and out – is reassuring, because it shows that it’s a mental state most women find themselves in, rather than actually being something that’s important. I feel like when I’m on set working with people I love, with my head in the work, all those things fall away. I stop caring about any of that shit."

Zoe Saldana (Guardians of the Galaxy III) shared some of her skincare and wellness secrets with Byrdie. She says that she gets creative with things. “Growing up in the Dominican Republic, I learned to be very organic with my beauty routine,” Saldana said. “Cooking products are not just for cooking; you can actually use them for beauty, for wellness. If you live in the islands, you get a coconut, and you use every part of that coconut. You drink the water, you make food with the meat, you can squeeze it and make coconut milk, and that milk you can put on your skin, on your hair. And then you can make coconut oil and coconut butter. I grew up using the environment to its full potential. And that just made me feel really, what’s the word, grounded. Because I was using everything around me in so many different ways, not just conventionally.”

Lots of push-ups, lots of sit ups. There’s lots of lifting weights. During COVID, you could get lots of frustration so I kind of got [producer] Jeremy [Latcham] to hook me up with a punching bag by my trailer. That helped a lot with the stressful days. I had a blast training.”

Jennifer Lawrence (No Hard Feelings) worked with Kurt Foreman to prep for her role in Red Sparrow. Foreman opened up about the process to Body + Soul. “What we started off with was her posture – how she walked, how she stood, and I knew that what we needed from her for all the visual effects to work and for all the close up shots to work, was I needed her upper body to look as polished as possible, and I needed it to match with what the dance double was doing.”

Anthony Ramos (Transformers: Rise of the Beasts) does a lot of core workouts to stay in shape. He shared some of his favorites in a video for Men’s Health. In it, he is seen doing exercises like bear plank to planks, bear planks to a push-up, back extensions with rotations, and skin the cat exercises. The Mayo Clinic states that having a strong core is important. “Strong core muscles make it easier to do many activities. When your core muscles are strong, it's easier to swing a golf club, get a glass from the top shelf and bend down to tie your shoes. Strong core muscles help athletes, such as runners. That's because weak core muscles can lead to more fatigue, less endurance and injuries.”

Stankovic does squats to keep herself in shape, as you can see in her Instagram video. Piedmont says that this exercise has a lot of health benefits. “Whether you’re hoping to tone your muscles, strengthen your core or just improve overall health, squats are one of the best exercises you can do. Although the movements appear relatively simple, squats can take time to master. Joel Hardwick, ACSM EP-C, EIM2, an exercise physiologist at Piedmont Atlanta Fitness Center, says practice will pay off…Hardwick explains that squats are a compound, multi-joint movement, which means they exercise several muscle groups. When you perform a squat, you work your calves, quads, hamstrings, glutes, core and part of your back.”

            
                She Does Lunges

Stankovic is also seen doing lunges in her Instagram video. The Mayo Clinic reports that lunges are very beneficial to do. “The lunge is a body resistance exercise that works the leg muscles. Specifically, the lunge targets the quadriceps and the hamstring muscles in the thigh, the gluteal muscles in the buttock, and to a lesser extent, the lower leg muscles. The lunge is a great conditioning exercise for many sports, especially those that involve lunging movements, such as tennis, basketball or soccer.”

            
                She Does Cardio

Stankovic likes to do cardio workouts to keep herself in shape. She shared this video of herself doing fast box jumps in different directions on Instagram. Stankovic captioned it, “Morning cardio challenge.” Cardio exercises have a lot of benefits. The Cleveland Clinic says, “When you work your heart and other muscles of your body during cardio exercise, this increases oxygen supply to your whole body, allowing all muscles to work harder and more efficiently. Over time, regular cardio exercise allows your muscles to adapt to an increased workload, making regular activities seem easier.”

Stankovic shares a lot of her favorite workouts in an Instagram story highlight. In some of the stories, she is seen doing Pilates exercises on a reformer. Pilates is very beneficial. The Cleveland Clinic says, “One of the reasons Pilates is such a good workout is that it specifically focuses on building core strength.”

Stankovic likes to strength train to keep herself in shape. She shared this Instagram story of herself using dumbbells. ACE Fitness says that strength training and using weights has a lot of health benefits. “Strength training with heavy weights improves muscle definition. Muscle definition occurs as the result of muscles remaining in a state of semi-contraction and heavy strength training recruits the larger type II muscle fibers responsible for a muscle’s appearance.”

French is seen doing deadlifts in her Instagram post. This exercise has a lot of benefits. NASM says, “A Romanian deadlift is a hip-hinge pattern that works the hamstrings and glutes. It is a form of deadlift with noticeably less bend in the knee, leading to greater hamstring engagement than traditional deadlifts. The move was introduced to the masses in the 90s by Romanian weightlifter Nicu Vlad (an Olympic and World Weightlifting champion) and his coach Dragomir Cioroslan. The two invented the move to help Nicu strengthen his back for the clean and jerk. Today, RDLs are commonly used to strengthen the posterior chain, using the core muscles to stabilize and the hamstrings and glutes to drive the movement.”

            
                She Does Lunges

Another exercise that French is seen doing in her Instagram post is lunges. NASM says that they are very beneficial. “The lunge is a versatile, simple and effective movement for lower body training. Various positions, planes of motion and speeds can all yield different training adaptations for the exerciser. Lunges are the gift that keeps on giving!”

            
                She Does Squats

Burns calories. Strengthens your core. Improves lower body strength. Enhances stability and balance. Betters your posture.”

French is seen doing hamstring curls in her Instagram post. According to The Mayo Clinic, hamstring curls are very beneficial. “The seated hamstring curl is an exercise you can do with a weight machine to work the muscles in the back of the thigh. As the name implies, the seated hamstring curl targets the hamstring muscles here in the back of the thigh. Strong hamstring muscles help to protect your ligaments in the knee.”

            
                She Does Hip Thrusts

French shared this video on Instagram of herself doing hip thrusts. She captioned it, “Hip Thrusts are no doubt one of the best exercises for building your Glutes but of course with any exercise, the form has to be correct for you to see the maximum benefits…✖️ Feet too far forwards will engage your hamstrings more ✖️ Feet too close to you will engage your quads more ✔️ Feet placed so your calves are vertical will engage your glutes more.”
