How Rich Are The World’s Most Popular Celebrities? Their Net Worth Will Leave You Stunned!

Paul McCartney – Age 78 – $1.2 Billion

It’s probably no surprise to you that Paul McCartney is worth $1.2 billion. One of the last two remaining band members of Beatles, McCartney is not just another majorly successful English singer-songwriter, but arguably the best composer of all time! Best known for his fruitful partnership with John Lennon, McCartney’s influence on the history of pop music is unparalleled.

At the age of 78, McCartney continues to record and release original tunes, and some of his most recent songs (such as the contagious “Queenie Eye”) are still incredibly catchy! In 2020, McCartney released the album McCartney III, the last in a three-records trilogy that started in 1970.

Holly Willoughby – Age 40 – $14 Million

Holly Willoughby is the embodiment of  successful woman and a TV personality who’s also worked as a model and author. She’s a beautiful and wealthy 40-year-old with over 20 years of experience in the show business. She started as a child presenter and eventually made it to Dancing on Ice, Celebrity Juice, and This Morning.

She is said to have an impressive $14 million in the bank, and we don’t think her bank credit is going down anytime soon. She’s still one of British TV’s most-cherished professionals, and she’s recently made it to the gameshow Michael McIntyre’s The Wheel as a contestant.

Jimmy Carr – Age 48 – $16 Million

For a man who makes a living out of making other people laugh, Jimmy Carr is a notoriously “serious” individual. Seeing Carr laugh is a little bit like watching a solar eclipse: it happens once every couple of years, and you shouldn’t look at it directly!

Jokes aside, Carr’s extensive career has earned him a solid reputation as a major stand-up comedian and TV personality, and he totally deserves it! He has a net worth of $16 million, and his fortune is always on the rise, despite the fact he was involved in a major tax avoidance scandal roughly 10 years ago.

Paul McCartney – Age 78 – $1.2 Billion

It’s probably no surprise to you that Paul McCartney is worth $1.2 billion. One of the last two remaining band members of Beatles, McCartney is not just another majorly successful English singer-songwriter, but arguably the best composer of all time!

Frank Skinner – Age 64 – $8 Million

The English comedian Frank Skinner is best known for being the former co-host of Fantasy Football League, a British program that gave a funny spin to the world of soccer fandom. A bonafide soccer fan himself, Skinner is a West Bromwich Albion fan with a big fat bank account of $8 million.

While Skinner is certainly not poor, his finances took a heavy hit in the late ’00s. He was the victim of a credit crunch after depositing millions of pounds of his own money in an AIG investment. As a stand-up comedian, Skinner released 6 original live shows between 1992 and 2014.

Amanda Holden – Age 50 – $6 Million

Amanda Holden is an English actress/media personality who worked on musical shows and ITV series for years before becoming one of the judges of Britain’s Got Talent. In the televised game show, Holden made it to the U.K.’s primetime spot and became one of the country’s most beloved celebrities.

In 2019, she decided to stop judging to see what it’s like to be judged herself, as she entered Comic Relief’s satirical version of the American reality series The Celebrity Apprentice. Also known for being one of the faces of Tesco’s advertisements, Holden has collected a reported fortune of $6 million over the years.

Pippa Middleton – Age 37 – $1 Million

Fame works in mysterious ways, and Pippa Middleton (Kate Middleton’s sister) surely knows about it. She went from stranger to tabloid favorite after making it to her big sister’s wedding and has since become a popular English socialite and columnist, with a reported fortune of $1 million.

While Pippa never got a Royal wedding, she surely celebrated her love for James Matthews with a lavish ceremony. Matthews is a former professional racing driver who made millions as a hedge fund manager. He and Pippa tied the knot in 2017. In 2020, Pippa confirmed her pregnancy with their second child.

Simon Cowell – Age 61 – $600 Million

The English TV personality Simon Cowell is partly responsible for the unmatched success of shows such as Pop Idol, The X Factor UK, and British Got Talent. Rightfully dubbed “Mr. Nasty”, judge Cowell presented himself as a hard-to-please antagonist—and surprise surprise—the crowd loved him from the very start!

While judges on television shows tend to be kind and comprehensive, Cowell made a fortune out of giving the audience what they really wanted: a bossy celeb who’s never going to settle for the averagely talented. An unstoppable show business force, Cowell has judged a spin-off virtual version of Canada’s Got Talent in 2020.

David Attenborough – Age 94 – $35 Million

It’s funny: for someone who made a living out of introducing the western world to nature’s most exciting animals, Sir David Attenborough makes for a quite fine representative of the human species himself! It’s increasingly harder to find gentlemen of the like of Attenborough, who’s mainly known for his decades-long collaboration with the BBC, where he hosted countless nature-based series.

At the impressive age of 94, Attenborough is still active and is still adding up to his $35 million fortune. Yet, Attenborough’s greatest legacy has nothing to do with money: he will be remembered forever for his deep voice, universal charm, and great love for the planet.
