Kyra Sedgwick (57) - $350K/Episode

The American actress Kyra Sedgwick is a rich woman in her own right. After all, she at one point earned a whopping $350K per episode to portray 'Brenda Leigh Johnson in the TNT hit police drama "The Closer." She also appeared in many other famous movies and TV series, including "Phenomenon," "The Woodsman," and, most recently, "The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special."

Despite all of that, she was lucky to be born into the Sedgwick family, which is very powerful and influential. Her father is the late Henry Dwight Sedgwick V, a successful venture capitalist. She's been married to fellow actor Kevin Bacon since 1988.

Armie Hammer (36) - Salary Undisclosed

The American actor Armie Hammer was born into the wealthy Hammer family, with a reported net worth of $180 million. Armie's father, Michael Armand Hammer, made a lot of money by operating several businesses, including a film/TV production company. As for Arnie, he first became famous precisely for portraying not one but two other famous heirs: the Winklevoss twins in "The Social Network."

His career's been going strong ever since, with the highlights being the acclaimed romantic drama "Call Me by Your Name" and the 2022 mystery flick "Death on the Nile." His per-movie salary was never publicly disclosed.

Paris Hilton (41) - $100K/Appearance

When one thinks of wealthy celebrity heirs, Paris Hilton is the first name that comes to mind. Paris' father, Richard Hilton, is a successful businessman and the co-founder of the Hilton & Hyland real-estate company, with a luxury portfolio worth billions. Paris's comfortable background helped her to amass part of her $300 million fortune.

The wealth of the Hiltons also allowed Paris to become a famous socialite. She made a lot of money by capitalizing on her celebrity status and appearing in movies, music videos, and ads. She also gets paid simply by showing up: after all, she earns a reported $100K by nightclub appearance.

Anderson Cooper (55) - $12 Million/Year

The Vanderbilt family has been at the top of the economic food chain since the Gilded Age days. The son of the late writer Wyatt Emory Cooper, the American journalist Anderson Cooper is currently the most famous of the Vanderbilt heirs. Contrary to his ancestors, though, Anderson didn't make a fortune by cashing in on the Vanderbilt's railroad and shipping empires.

Instead, Anderson decided to become one of the most influential and trustworthy news anchors in the United States. For his services, the "Anderson Cooper 360º" host gets a staggering $12 million salary yearly. In 2022, he continued working with CNN.

Aerin Lauder (52) - $284K/Month

While some rich heirs prefer to stay away from the family business, the American businesswoman Aerin Lauder was more than happy to embrace her heritage. The daughter of a former U.S. Ambassador to Austria and the granddaughter of the founders of the Estée Lauder multinational cosmetics corporation, Aerin keeps busy by serving as the company's image director. She also runs her own company, AERIN.

For her services, the American heiress gets paid a reported salary of $284K per month, much more than the average annual salary of $100K Estée Lauder pays its other employees. Her 2022 net worth? An unbelievable $3.2 billion.

Balthazar Getty (47) - $18 Million/Year

How is it to be the son of the wealthiest man in the world? If someone knows that feeling, it's the American actor/musician Balthazar Getty. The son of the late oil tycoon and former richest man on the planet John Paul Getty III, Balthazar has always been more interested in show business than oil-related affairs.

An accomplished actor, Balthazar was featured in movies such as "Lord of the Flies," David Lynch's "Lost Highway," and, most recently, "La Flamme Rouge." He gets paid a reported annual salary of $18 million, but it's unsure whether the money comes solely from his acting career or also from Getty-family dividends.

Julia Louis-Dreyfus (61) - $500K/Episode

Born in New York, the American actress Julia Louis-Dreyfus has roots in France, where her family built a massive merchant empire in the mid-19th century. At the time Julia's father, Gerard C. Louis-Dreyfus, passed away, he was worth a whopping $3.4 billion. Julia never rested on top of her gigantic heritage, though.

She decided to follow a different path and become one of America's top comedy actresses. After starring in the all-time favorite sitcom "Seinfeld," she portrayed the main protagonist in "Veep." For her work in the latter, she was paid a reported salary of up to $500K per episode.

Suri Cruise (16) - Salary Undisclosed

How is it to be worth $500K before turning 18? That's the type of question one must ask Suri Cruise. A celebrity kid who's presumably still studying, she's the daughter of two beloved Hollywood superstars: the action hero Tom Cruise and the "Jack and Jill" actress Katie Holmes.

Even though the paparazzi try hard to find as much info as possible on Suri, she's been kept away from the spotlight for most of her life. Apart from a few TV appearances and a single acting job in 2013, she is yet to start her professional career. Considering Tom is worth $600 million, we expect her to have a bright future.

Travis Knight (49) - $275K/Month

According to Wallmine, the man in the picture earns a salary of $275K per month by serving as the director of the sportswear corporation Nike. His role at the company is hardy coincidental: after all, he's the son of the American billionaire businessman and Nike co-founder Phil Knight.

More than just a company director, though, Travis is a creative and versatile individual. He directed the movies "Bumblebee" and "Kubo and the Two Strings," founded a stop-motion animation studio (Laika), worked briefly as a rapper under the moniker Chilly Tee, and fathered three children! In the meantime, he landed two Academy Award nominations in the meantime.

Blue Ivy Carter (10) - Salary Undisclosed

The precocious success of the young American singer Blue Ivy Carter is unparalleled. The daughter of the billionaire music tycoons Beyoncé and Jay-Z, she was featured in the song "Glory" (released by her father) two days after being born and broke a Guinness World Record for such a feat.

Dubbed the world's most famous baby at the time of her birth, Blue Ivy appeared in a second major song in 2020, combining forces with her mother and two other singers in the song "Brown Skin Girl." This time, she broke yet another Guinness World Record, becoming the youngest person ever to win a Grammy Award.

Peter Brant II (28) - Salary Undisclosed

A magazine publisher, paper magnate, film producer, and art collector, the American businessman Peter M. Brant worked hard to provide for his children. However, his son Peter Brant II was never interested in the family business, deciding instead to become a famous heir and socialite.

Peter's salary was never disclosed, but many outlets report that his net worth sits at a comfortable $2 million (still far less than his father's $800 million). To date, his biggest claim to fame is founding a company called Mac Cosmetics with his brother Harry. He also made news after coming out as a proud gay man in 2011.

Ariana Rockefeller (40) - Salary Undisclosed

The philanthropist, model, and amateur equestrian Ariana Rockefeller is the heiress to one of the most immense family fortunes the world has ever seen. Her great-great-grandfather, John D. Rockefeller, was the founder of the Standard Oil company, once the largest petroleum company in the world.

Unlike her father and grandfather, Ariana is not an industrialist, banker, or businesswoman. Instead, she has a role on the board of the David Rockefeller fund, a non-profit humanitarian organization. She also used to own a pop-up shop and a line of handbags. While her salary was never disclosed, she has a reported net worth of $2.8 billion.

Megan Ellison (36) - Salary Undisclosed

Megan Ellison is the daughter of the American business magnate Larry Ellison, founder of the multinational computer technology corporation Oracle. In recent years, Oracle has been the third-largest software company in the world by market capitalization. Despite her heritage, Megan was always more interested in movies than computers.

She built a respectable career in Hollywood by working mainly as an executive producer. Some of her best films include the Academy Award-nominated "Her," "Zero Dark Thirty," and the coming-of-age comedy "Booksmart." She also started from the bottom, first working in the sound department of the movie "When All Else Fails."

Jared Kushner (41) - $120 Million/Year

According to Fortune.com, the American businessman Jared Kushner and his wife, Ivanka Trump, made up to $120 million annually when Donald Trump was sitting at the White House. Making money, however, is old news for Jared: he was born into a wealthy and well-connected family, as his father, Charles Kushner, built a massive real estate empire.

Jared took over his father's Kushner Companies following his incarceration (he has since been released), and that inspired him to pursue many other business endeavors. In addition to serving as a senior advisor to the President during Trump's term, he also founded a private equity firm with clients as powerful as the Saudi government.

Dylan Lauren (48) - $258K/Month

When it comes to business billionaires, few are as stylish as the great fashion designer Ralph Lauren. His daughter Dylan Lauren seems to have inherited his father's sophisticated taste, but she decided to follow a different career path. Her biggest claim to fame is founding Dylan's Candy Bar, a chain of boutique candy shops inspired by the movie "Willie Wonka & the Chocolate Factory."

Also known for her appearances as a judge in the reality series "The Toy Box," Dylan reportedly earns a salary of at least $258K per month (that's the average wage of the top executive at Dylan's Candy Bar).

Ally Hilfiger (37) - Salary Undisclosed

Founded by the American fashion designer Tommy Hilfiger, the Tommy Hilfiger Corporation sells products in over 100 countries and routinely makes more than $6 billion in annual sales. While not directly involved with the company, Tommy's daughter Ally Hilfiger made the most of her family's fortune to become a well-known socialite and film producer.

Her career in Hollywood is limited to her work in "Rich Girls" (in which she starred) and "Proud," a 2004 drama she helped to produce. A favorite of the paparazzi, she's constantly snapped attending parties and vacationing in St. Tropez. She also authored a book about Lyme disease.

Georgina Bloomberg (39) - Salary Undisclosed

Rich girls have a thing for horses, but no American heiress seems to love equestrianism more than Georgina Bloomberg, the daughter of the former New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg. According to Forbes, Michael is among the 70 wealthiest persons in the world, with a staggering net worth of $82 billion.

Not very interested in her father's media conglomerate, Bloomberg L.P., Georgina keeps busy by managing New York Empire, an equestrian team of her own founding. She loves the equestrian show circuit so much that she even released a few young adult novels inspired by the sport, including 2013's "Rein It In."

Tiffany Trump (29) - $1 Million/Year

Outlets such as Bio Overview have reported that Tiffany Trump gets paid an annual salary of $1 million. However, it's unclear how she makes that much money by working as a legal research assistant at Georgetown University Law Center. She presumably got some financial help from her famous father, the American businessman and former President of the United States, Donald Trump.

The daughter of Trump's second wife, American actress Marla Maples, Tiffany has been involved with the academic world for most of her life. Still, she knows what it feels like to be a rich heiress: she released music, partied with Lindsay Lohan, and has 1.4 million followers on Instagram.

Chloe Green (31) - Salary Undisclosed

Chloe Green is a British heiress with a reported net worth of $100 million and the kind of life most people can only dream of having. A well-known face among British tabloid readers, she loves to share details of her luxurious day-to-day life on Instagram and was once snapped by the paparazzi enjoying the sun aboard her father's $150 million yacht.

Speaking of which, she's the daughter of none other than Sir Philip Green, a British billionaire who made his fortune by working as the chairman of the Arcadia Group, a multinational retailing company. While away from business, Chloe once claimed she attended board meetings at the age of 10.

Ronald Lauder (78) - $650K/Year

According to data from SEC.gov, Leonard Lauder and Ronald Lauder get paid a base salary of $1.8 million and $650K per year for their role at their father's company, the Estée Lauder cosmetics empire. That's, of course, excluding bonuses, stock dividends, and earnings from alternative business endeavors.

With a net worth of $4.5 billion (according to Forbes), Ronald took her mother's business "by the horns" and helped to turn Estée Lauder into an S&P500 beast. Whenever he's not busy running the family company, he likes to collect art and focus on his role as president of the World Jewish Congress.

Françoise Bettencourt Meyers (69) - Salary Undisclosed

It's rare that a billionaire heiress manages to take the family business and do a better job than her parents. That, however, was precisely what the L'Oréal heiress and vice-chairman Françoise Bettencourt Meyers did. When her mother, Liliane Bettencourt, passed away in 2017, she took over and tripled her family's investments while helping L'Oréal get a high valuation in the stock market.

Somewhat of a business genius, Françoise is the wealthiest woman in the world, according to Forbes, with a whopping net worth of $95 billion. A French citizen, she raised $226 million to help repair the Notre Dame cathedral following the 2019 fire that damaged the building.

Eden Sassoon (49) - $100K/Episode

Despite spending his childhood at an orphanage, the late American hairstylist Vidal Sassoon made a fortune after creating the first worldwide chain of beauty salons. Before passing away in 2012, he married four women and had four children, to whom he left a reported heritage of around $200 million.

Aside from the American actress/singer Catya Sassoon, Vidal's most famous daughter is the socialite Eden Sassoon. She's best known for her appearances in the reality series "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills," for which most cast members get paid a salary sitting anywhere between just a few thousand dollars, $100K, and $500K per episode.

Allegra Versace (36) - Salary Undisclosed

While most people get a car when they turn 18 (if they're very, very lucky), the American socialite Allegra Versace received 50% ownership of her late uncle's luxurious empire, Gianni Versace! The daughter of the iconic Donatella Versace, Allegra has, however, proved again and again that she was deserving of such a gift.

Despite her young age, she's been working as a Gianni Versace director since 2011 and has helped the company to continue on the right path. While her salary as a director was never disclosed, multiple outlets claim she has a net worth of around $900 million. She's also interested in ballet, art history, and theatre.

Jamie Laing (34) - Salary Undisclosed

People have seen the English presenter Jaime Laing work in productions such as "Made in Chelsea," "Hollyoaks," "Drunk History," and "Murder in Successville." However, not everyone's aware that this BBC Radio 1 podcaster is the great-great-grandson of Sir Alexander Grant, a Scottish businessman who made a fortune by creating McVitie's digestive snack food brand in the late 19th century.

Now that we've digested that (pun intended), it's worth mentioning that Laing never rested on top of his family's heritage and made most of his $10-million net worth by working successfully in show business. According to his Wikipedia page, though, Laing also works as an investor.

Alice Walton (73) - $3 Billion/Year

Described as the "richest" and "wealthiest" family in the United States by Forbes magazine and Business Insider, respectively, the Walton family made most of its collective fortune by operating the multinational retail corporation Walmart. The famous American chain of hypermarkets is now in the hands of the businesswoman Alice Walton.

The American heiress has shown again and again that Walmart is safely under her control, and she is the second-richest woman in the world, according to Bloomberg. She has so many shares in her family's company that her annual earnings have reportedly reached a staggering $3 billion. She has a B.A. in economics from Trinity University.

Adam Sandler (56) – $440 Million

Adam Sandler, the beloved comedian and actor, has tickled our funny bones and amassed an impressive fortune throughout his career. He has become a household name in the entertainment industry with his infectious laughter and versatile performances. But just how much is this comedic genius worth?

As of 2023, Adam''s net worth is estimated at a staggering $440 million. From his early days on "Saturday Night Live" to his numerous box office hits, he has consistently delivered laughter and entertainment, winning the hearts of audiences worldwide. Beyond his on-screen success, Adam has proven his business acumen by establishing his production company, Happy Madison Productions.

Lydia Hearst-Shaw (38) - Salary Undisclosed

Lydia Hearst-Shaw was lucky to inherit a reported fortune of $100 million coming from her great-grandfather, the iconic American newspaper publisher William Randolph Hearst. While she was never one to dwell in the family's business, she's done much over the years, working successfully as a socialite, actress, journalist/blogger, and model.

Accustomed to the world of fame and glamour, Lydia collaborated with huge luxury brands such as Chanel and Fendi, worked for Page Six and the New York Post, starred in "The Face" as a supermodel coach, and acted in productions such as "Gossip Girl," "Z Nation," and the 2022 horror flick "Titanic 666."

Petra Ecclestone (33) - Salary Undisclosed

Being the heiress of the British Formula One billionaire Bernie Ecclestone comes with a few perks. Even though she spent most of her life working as a socialite (pretty much like her mother, Slavica Radic), Petra Ecclestone happens to be the owner of The Manor. This iconic mansion was once the largest house in Los Angeles.

While accustomed to the spotlight and living comfortably, thanks to her $400 million net worth, Petra didn't always have it easy. As a teenager, she struggled with viral meningitis, and the disease has since been a part of her life. She gives back to others by being a Meningitis Trust ambassador.

Douglas Durst (77) - $200K/Month

The triumphant American-Dream tale of the Durst family started when Joseph Durst, a poor immigrant from Austria-Hungary, became a successful real estate magnate in the United States. Joseph's rags-to-riches story inspired his son Seymour Durst to pick up the family's business. Years later, Joseph's grandson, Douglas Durst, did precisely the same.

Because business is in Douglas's blood, he's successfully run the Durst Organization while also serving as a Ladder Capital Corp director (a job for which he earns a reported salary of $200K). Douglas is the nephew of the infamous American heir Robert Durst, the subject of the HBO documentary "The Jinx."

Dakota Johnson (33) - $250K/Movie

The American actress Dakota Johnson wasn't born into a family of billionaires, but she grew up in a house filled with Hollywood royalty. The daughter of the American icons Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith, Dakota didn't have to wait long to make a name for herself in show business. In 2015, she started making headlines after landing the role of the main protagonist in the "Fifty Shades" film series.

Even though she landed an underwhelming payment of $250K per movie with "Fifty Shades," Dakota is probably earning more now that she's an established Hollywood superstar. In recent years, she starred in "Cha Cha Real Smooth" and "Persuasion."

Scarlett Johansson (38) - $56 Million/Year

Like Dakota Johnson, Scarlett Johansson isn't the heir to a multimillion-dollar empire—but she enjoyed a comfortable life as a child. The daughter of a famous Danish architect (Karsten Johansson) and a reputable actress (Melanie Sloan), Johansson has nonetheless overshadowed her parents' feats by standing tall as one of Hollywood's leading female actresses.

At one of her peak years, in 2019, the "Marriage Story" star made a whopping $56 million. For her participation in two of the "Avengers" movies alone, she collected an impressive $15 million. In 2021, she starred in and produced the Marvel Cinematic Universe blockbuster "Black Widow."

Jim Walton (74) - $3 Billion/Year

According to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, the American businessman Jim Walton is one of the 20th wealthiest persons in the world, with a net worth of $61 billion. It's a staggering number but a hardly surprising fact when one considers that Walton earns a reported $3 billion per year and is one of the heirs of the Walmart fortune.

The youngest son of the late business magnate Sam Walton, Jim studied Business Administration in Marketing at the University of Arkansas to continue his father's work and serve as the CEO of the Arvest Bank, also owned by the powerful Walton family.

Victoria Mars (66) - Salary Undisclosed

It's appropriate that she's called Victoria Mars... Because her fortune is otherworldly! Victoria's surname, however, comes from the fact she's the daughter of the late American businessman Forrest Mars, himself one of the heirs of the Mars family fortune. For four generations, they have been running the multinational confectionery manufacturers of Mars Incorporated.

Now serving as the chair of a non-profit organization called Salzburg Global Seminar, Victoria spent most of her professional life working as the chairwoman of Mars Incorporated, amassing a net worth of $9.7 billion in the meantime. She's also a philanthropist and mother of four.

Julia Koch (60) - $5 Billion/Year

Many people around the world are pushing for a green-energy revolution, but there's no doubt that refined oil is still what makes the world turn. For that reason, the American socialite/philanthropist Julia Koch is said to earn a whopping $5 billion per year. Following the passing of her husband, David Koch, she became one of the world's wealthiest women.

While Koch Industries is at the basis of Julia's fortune (they manufacture paper, minerals, and fertilizers in addition to refined oil), she spends most of her time working on the charitable David H. Koch Foundation, in which she serves as president.

Clare Bronfman (43) - Salary Undisclosed

Not all billionaire heirs are destined for greatness. The daughter of the late Canadian-American Seagram chairman Edgar Bronfman, Clare Bronfman had all the advantages she could hope for while growing up. However, she ended up joining an infamous cult after a brief equestrian career; it all culminated in a six-year-and-nine-months jail sentence.

As one of the leaders of the personality cult NXIVM, Clare was directly involved in some major crimes—as brilliantly depicted in the HBO documentary "The Vow." She ended up pleading guilty to conspiracy in 2019 and receiving her jail sentence one year later. She was worth a reported $500 million.

Bradley Cooper (47) - $10 Million/Year

Most people don't know that the Hollywood superstar Bradley Cooper is the heir to a comfortable fortune. It's not surprising: after all, this Pennsylvania native has been working hard in showbiz for years, making a name for himself and a respectable fortune of $100 million.

Recently featured in movies as beloved as "Thor: Love and Thunder," "Licorice Pizza," and "A Star Is Born" (which he also directed), Bradley is the son of the late Charles Cooper, who worked for years as a Merrill Lynch stockbroker. He wasn't a billionaire, but he made quite a comfortable salary. As for Bradley, he reportedly earns around $10 million per year.

Lady Gaga (36) - $25 Million/Year

With her every red-carpet appearance, Lady Gaga proves that she's more than a brilliant pop singer and actress: she's also the epitome of elegance. Her glamorous personality probably comes from the fact she's the daughter of Joe Germanotta, a successful American restaurant entrepreneur.

But while Gaga may have capitalized on her family's fortune, she outdid her father's feats by taking Hollywood (and the music industry) by storm. Now busier with her work in movies such as Bradley Cooper's "A Star Is Born" and "Top Gun: Maverick," this Grammy Award winner is said to get paid around $25 million per year.

Jake Gyllenhaal (42) - $500K/Movie

Sometimes, the best heritage one can get from one's family isn't measured in money but in culture. That's certainly true when it comes to the Hollywood hunk Jake Gyllenhaal. The son of the accomplished screenwriter Naomi Foner and the film director/poet Stephen Gyllenhaal, Jake was exposed to a lot of great things before becoming a famous actor.

The impact of Jake's parents is also exemplified by the fact his sister, Maggie Gyllenhaal, also did great things in the entertainment industry. Known for productions as beloved as "Donnie Darko," "Nightcrawler," "Prisoners," and "Strange World," Jake reportedly earned $500K for his work in the movie "Brokeback Mountain."

Ariana Grande (29) - $20-$30 Million/Year

The American singer Ariana Grande is unmistakeably successful: she starred in a Broadway musical at the age of 15, sold 85 million records worldwide, earned a reported $20 to $30 million per year, and licensed a fragrance line that exceeded $1 billion in sales in 2022. But where does her drive come from?

While few people know it, Ariana is the heir to a comfortable fortune. After all, the Grande family is known for running Hose-McCann Communications, a major communications company. Since the company's currently run by her mother, Joan Grande, it's no wonder Ariana has always been a confident and strong woman—it's in her blood!

Brooke Shields (57) - Salary Undisclosed

Recently featured in the HBO Max movie "Holiday Harmony," the ever-gorgeous Brooke Shields is an accomplished American actress/producer. However, she made most of her $40 million fortune by working as a model in the '80s. Extremely precocious, she started making money as a child and starred (quite controversially) in the movie "Pretty Woman" at the young age of 12.

Throughout her life, though, Brooke was lucky to count on the support of her parents, both of them very successful. Her mother is the late American actress/socialite Teri Shields, while her father is the late Revlon businessman Frank Shields.

Michelle Williams (42) - $1K/Reshoot

A salary of $1K per reshoot? You're probably as baffled as we are! But the fact is that the American actress Michelle Williams once raised awareness of the pay gap between men and women in Hollywood when she received a mere one-thousand dollars for her "All the Money in the World" reshoots. Her male co-star Mark Wahlberg, on the other hand, was paid... $1.5 million!

Deep systemic issues aside, Williams was lucky to grow up quite comfortably, as she's the heir to the fortune of her father, the American author/commodity trader Larry R. Williams. In 2022, she starred in Steven Spielberg's "The Fabelmans."

Ed Sheeran (31) - $41 Million/Year

Considering that the Award-winning English singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran once earned more than $41 million in a single year, it's safe to say he's already more affluent than his parents have ever been. But would the "Shape of You" singer be as successful if it wasn't for the influence of his two sophisticated parents?

Sheeran's father worked as an art curator in Bradford, while his mother was a Manchester City Art Gallery employee. Exposed to art from a very young age, Sheeran was undoubtedly inspired by his parents to pursue a career in the entertainment industry and become a musician. He has a net worth of roughly $242 million.

Adam Levine (43) - $13 Million/Season

Everybody should recognize the "Maroon 5" lead singer Adam Levine. Also known for his multiple Grammy Award nominations, beauty-symbol status, and role as a coach in "The Voice," this multi-talented celebrity is the son of Fredric Levine, the founder of the retail chain M. Fredric.

While he was lucky to grow up in a home where money wasn't an issue, Adam achieved so much over the years that he fully eclipsed his father's fortune. Now a bonafide millionaire, this Californian native reportedly received up to $13 million per season while working in "The Voice." He also owns a men's clothing line and record label.

Olivia Wilde (38) - $300K/Movie

In recent years, the stunning American actress Olivia Wilde has proven to be a talented director. Her first movie, "Booksmart," was a commercial hit, while her second motion picture, "Don't Worry Darling," became an acclaimed psychological thriller. For her work in the latter, Wilde was paid a reported $300K.

The former "House" star is an all-around big player in Hollywood now, but where does she get her knack for showbiz from? Perhaps from her parents, who have also been involved in entertainment for years. Her father is the British journalist Andrew Cockburn and her mother, Leslie Cockburn, works as an investigative journalist and filmmaker.

Chevy Chase (79) - $12.5 Million/Movie

The veteran American actor Chevy Chase was popularized for his work as a comedian, but he comes from an Ivy League family. After all, his late father, Edward Chase, was a Princeton-educated book editor/writer. Without ever attending Princeton, though, Chevy turned out more than okay.

Featured in more than 100 movies and TV series, this Hollywood icon was once paid $12.5 million (adjusted to inflation) for his work in the late '80s flick "Christmas Vacation." With that kind of paycheck, it's no wonder he managed to amass a fortune of $50 million over the years. His father would be very proud of him.

Kate Hudson (43) - $50 Million/Year

There's no doubt that Kate Hudson is Hollywood royalty. The daughter of the American musician/actor Bill Hudson and the American actress Goldie Hawn, she was destined to become a superstar even before landing her breakthrough role in "Almost Famous." Now, she's one of Hollywood's best and one of the stars of the "Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery" movie.

Outside of show business, Kate makes moves by running the activewear company Fabletics. Due to her 20% stake in the company, she earned a staggering $50 million in 2017 alone. Add that to her acting paychecks, and it's easy to see why she has a net worth of $80 million.
