CHARLIZE THERON—EST. $130 MILLION

Charlize Theron, born in South Africa on August 7, 1975, is an American and South African film actress, model and producer. Charlize Theron started as a model and toured Europe when she was young. In 1997, however, she landed her breakout role. It was alongside Keanu Reeves and Al Pacino in the film The Devil’s Advocate.

She received multiple awards as well as critical acclaim for her role in the film Monster, where she played serial killer Aileen Wuornos. There were a few internet outlets that reported that Theron put some investment money toward bitcoin, which some have argued is where the bulk of her net worth had come from, but we’re here to tell you that that’s fake news. Theron made most of her money like every other Hollywood A-lister: by charging production studios millions of dollars in talent fees.
