Da Brat Net Worth
Shawntae Harris's Net Worth as of 2024
$1.5 Million
American actress and rapper Shawntae Harris, known to the wide audience as Dr. Brat or Da Brat, was born on 14 April 1974, in Joliet, Illinois, and is one of several females who broke into the hip-hop scene in the mid-90’s, and whose first album made her extremely popular. Da Brat was the first female who managed to create an album which was certified platinum, and there is no doubt that this increased her net worth considerably.
So just how rich is Da Brat, as of early 2017? Authoritative sources estimate that she has a net worth of over $1.5 million, accumulated during a career which now spans more than 25 years in the music world.

Da Brat was raised by both mother and father, however, her parents didn’t marry, and so she actually had two homes. At an early age, Da Brat learned to play the drums, and sing in the choir while attending Pentecostal church several times a week. She was educated at Kenwood Academy, and matriculated from the Academy of Scholastic Achievement in 1993.
Da Brat then started her serious career when she won a contest of rappers in her hometown, sponsored by MTV. As a prize she had the opportunity to meet with famous rappers Chris Kelly “Mac Daddy” and his partner Chris Smith “Daddy Mac” from the American duo “Kriss Kross”. With the help of the duo, Da Brat was introduced to Jermaine Dupri – American songwriter and record producer, and from then onwards, after signing a contract with the So So Def label, her net worth started to rise extremely quickly as she debuted with the album “Funkdafied”, released in 1994. She rocketed to fame as this album peaked at number 11 on the Billboard 200, which increased her net worth considerably. After this success, Da Brat released three more albums: “Anuthatantrum” in 1996, “Unrestricted” in 2000 and “Lilelite, Luv & Niteclubz” in 2003.
Until 2006, Da Brat also appeared in several TV shows and even movies. The first time she appeared on TV in 1994 was as a musical guest in the American live-action comedy show entitled “All That”, and just two years later she was already playing herself in the movie “Kazaam”, directed by Paul M. Glaser. Her most recent notable appearance in a movie which increased her net worth was in 2006, when she played the main character Camisha in “30 Days”.
Since then Da Brat hasn’t made any progress in the film industry, partly because her personal life took over – after a couple of assaults she was sentenced to three years jail in 2007, released in 2010, since when she has continued her musical career, but producing numerous remixes, including one called “Motivation” featuring Lil Wayne, as well as collaborating with Notorious B.I.G., Missy Elliott, Mariah Carey, Destiny’s Child and Lil’ Kim among others.
Most recently, since 2015 Da Brat works for the Rickey Smiley Morning show as a co-host.
In her personal life – well, there isn’t one that hasn’t been mentioned. There are no rumours of any relationships, and if there are she keeps such info very quiet.

Many viewers also know Karyn Parsons as an actress from “Lush Life” – she not only appeared in it, but was also the co-producer, co-writer and co-creator of the show. However, in the show business industry Karyn has been working for a relatively short span of time, and maybe that is the reason her net worth isn’t rather higher.

Stacey Dash Net Worth $10 Million
Stacy Dash made her debut in 1982 when she appeared in “Farrell for the People” alongside Ed O‘Neill. Then followed such famous shows as “The Cosby Show“, “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” and “TV 101“. Her movie career started with the Richard Pryor film “Moving” (1988). The 80‘s were actually a really successful period for the young actress, since her other two movies, “Mo’ Money” and “Renaissance Man”, were also big hits. Her real big break, however, was in 1995 when she appeared in Amy Heckerling’s “Clueless” as Dionne Marie Davenport. The comedy, which was based on Jane Austen‘s novel “Emma”, was very well received and grossed $55 million, thus increasing Dash’s net worth considerably. The film also made her and fellow actresses Brittany Murphy and Alicia Silverstone true international stars, probably more so as it was soon made into TV series and Dash reprised her role as Dionne. The series ran from 1996 till 1999, and also featured actress and singer Cher. During that period, Stacy also appeared in films like the crime drama “Cold Around the Heart” (1997) and comedy “Personals” (1999). Naturally all of these appearances enhanced Stacy’s net worth.
Stacey Dash is also known for her appearances in music videos. In 2001 she was a part of the music video for the Carl Thomas song “Emotional”, and in 2004 she appeared alongside Kanye West in the music video for his single “All Falls Down.” At the same time Dash continued to have a successful film career with movies “American Primitive”, “I Could Never Be Your Woman”, “Nora’s Hair Salon II”, “Ghost Image” and “Fashion Victim”. She did not, however, forget television and appeared in the series “Single Ladies” in the role of Valerie Stokes but, unfortunately, she did not return for the second season. She was also a part of the reality TV show “Celebrity Circus”, in which celebrities had to perform circus tricks. Dash was one of the finalists, finishing second after Antonio Sabato, Jr. In addition, she also had guest roles in “CSI: Crime Scene Investigation” and “The Game”. All these roles in movies and TV shows helped to increase her overall net worth.
Besides her acting career, Stacey Dash also has her own lingerie line “Letters of Marque” and posed for Playboy in 2006.
In her personal life, Stacy Dash was first married to Brian Lovell(1999-2000), and then James Maby(2005-06). She married Emmanuel Xuereb in 2007, but divorced him in 2010 and asked for restraining order against him, claiming physical abuse. Stacy also has a son fathered by R&B singer Christopher Williams, and a daughter (born 2003). She is very open about her political views and often uses Twitter to criticise certain public figures. Interestingly, she supported Barack Obama in 2008, but in the presidential elections of 2012 she expressed her support for Republican candidate Mitt Romney.
