Love and warmth from fans are indeed some of the things that motivate the world’s most famous people to keep their work going. However, fame and appreciation from the public wouldn’t be enough for celebrities to dedicate themselves completely to the pop industry. That’s why ordinary people are always interested in the size of their net worth.

Comparing the earnings of celebrities is one of the most entertaining activities for the fans. While some rich people tend to spend their funds on charities, others prefer to launch businesses or invest in real estate. Let’s find out more about the highest-paid celebrities in the world today and see how much funds they have accumulated throughout their careers.

He worked very hard during his early years and earned $15 million from 2003’s movie Paycheck, which was a highlight of his career. About two decades have passed, and now he has a net worth of $150 million.

Batman is not the only notable character from Affleck. He’s widely known for portraying Nick Dunne in David Fincher’s Gone Girl or George Reeves in Hollywoodland, for which he received a Golden Globe nomination. Despite having earned millions of dollars, he doesn’t plan to retire and has more than five upcoming projects, including The Last Duel.

His firm, Soros Fund Management, manages about $45 million in assets.

Soros is a Hungarian-American entrepreneur and stock investor, famous for his social activism and philanthropism. He studied at the London School of Economics and obtained Bachelor’s, Master’s, and Doctor’s degrees. As Forbes proves, once he earned $1 billion in just one day.

Years ago, nobody could have imagined that a young star from Nickelodeon’s TV series Victorious and Sam & Cat would become a highly demanded celebrity in the world. But today, Ariana Grande is one of the most popular and highest-paid singers with her estimated net worth of $180 million.

She recorded her first studio album, Yours Truly, in 2013. The album quickly got at the top of the US Billboard 200 albums, and afterward, Grande’s fame became unstoppable. She has recorded six studio albums and has won two Grammy Awards. In 2021 she will star in Don’t Look Up with Jennifer Lawrence, Leonardo DiCaprio, and other Hollywood stars.

Brian May – Net Worth: $210 million

2018’s Bohemian Rhapsody is just one of many things that prove legendary rock band Queen will never be forgotten, and their songs will remain hits forever. Queen’s lovers often wonder what Brian May, the band’s lead guitarist, is doing now. Currently, he’s 73 years old and has a net worth of $210 million.

In 2020 May suffered from a heart attack but survived and continued his career. Despite having hundreds of millions in the bank, he doesn’t plan to retire. It seems like he’s more energetic now than ever and enjoys performing on the stage. Queen continues to collaborate with Adam Lambert, and together they will be performing around the world.

Demi Lovato – Net Worth: $40 Million

Years ago, Demi Lovato was considered a young actress of Disney and was known for teen movies and TV shows such as Camp Rock movies, Princess Protection Program, or Sonny With a Chance. Since none of these movies had high revenue, no one imagined that she would earn a net worth of $40 million just a decade later.

Thanks to her amazing voice, she switched the focus to singing, and probably it was the best decision of her life. She has released seven studio albums and two video albums. Her singles Skyscraper, Heart Attack, or Confident remain hits even today. 2021’s Demi Lovato: Dancing with the Devil is a documentary about her career.
