Jenny McCarthy Net Worth $17 Million

Jenny’s father was a mill worker, and mother a courtroom custodian. Jenny matriculated from Mother McAuley Liberal Arts High School in 1990, and then entered Southern Illinois University to gain a speciality in nursing, but she dropped out in her second year as she decided to start a modeling career, which she thought would be more remunerative.

In 1993 she participated in the audition for a model of Playboy’s calendar in the nude, and was chosen to be October’s model, apparently conquering 10,000 other models to be a lucky one. Jenny  was initially paid $20,000 which considerably increased her net worth, but then $100,000 as Playmate of the Year. In 2012 Jenny completed a similar shoot – ‘before my 40th birthday’ – salary undisclosed!

In 1994 Jenny moved to Los Angeles, and the following year was cast in MTV’s popular dating show “Singled Out”, then over the next 10 years starred in the popular movies: “Scarry Movie 3” (with Anna Faris), “Scream 3” (with Rory Culkin), “The Stupids” (with Tom Arnold), “Dirty Love” (with Carmen Electra), “Diamonds” (with Kirk Douglas), ”John Tucker Must Die” (with Brittany Snow), which had a consistently positive influence on McCarthy’s net worth. Concurrently, after her participation on the show “Singled Out”, Jenny started hosting the TV broadcast “The Jenny McCarthy Show”, and also participated in the show “Jenny” but it was soon cancelled. Subsequently Jenny has appeared as a guest star in such TV shows as “The Drew Carey Show”, “Charmed” and “Two and a Half Man”, and more recently has appeared as herself in “Wahlburgers” and “Donnie Loves Jenny”, still adding to her bank account.

Aside from acting, McCarthy is an autism activist, a supporter of individuals and organizations related to the illness, as her son suffers from the disease. McCarthy has published several books for parents raising children with autism: “Healing and Preventing Autism”, “ “Louder than Words: A Mother’s Journey in Healing Autism”, “Mother Warriors: A Nation of Parents Healing Autism Against All Odds”. Recently, she is somewhat controversially one of the hosts of “The View” – because of her sometimes anti-vaccination statements – which is a popular TV talk show, and a current source of Jenny’s net worth.

Also in her personal life, Jenny McCarthy dated her manager Ray Manzella in the ’90s, but in 1999 Jenny married actor and manager John Mallory Asher, and in 2002 their son Evan was born, subsequently at the age of three being diagnosed with autism; the same year his parents divorced. In one of her interviews, Jenny stated that Asher left his family because he was not capable of dealing with his son’s diagnosis. In 2005 Jenny started dating Jim Carrey,  then they lived together, with Jim promoting Jenny and her activity concerning autism, however, the couple separated in 2010, with rumours that Jim Carrey paid McCarthy  between $25-$50 million. Since 2014 Jenny has been married to Donnie Wahlberg.

Karyn’s next appearance on the TV screen was in 1988, when she played Lynette from “CBS Summer Playhouse” in the episode entitled “Roughhouse”, but her real big break was came in 1990, when the actress had the opportunity to play Will Smith‘s cousin “Hilary Banks” in the NBC sitcom called “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air”. After this performance, Karyn Parsons had numerous roles in movies and TV shows. 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.

She has starred in movies such as “Major Payne”, “Late Nights” and “The Ladies Man”, but her last notable appearance on screen was in 2002. Audiences saw Karyn as Lily in the comedy-drama film called “13 Moons” and since then the actress has appeared only a few times on TV.

In her personal life, Karyn Parson’s first husband was Randy Brooks, an American film and TV actor, most known for his role in the film called “Reservoir Dogs”, who is also well known in the soap opera community because of “The Young and the Restless”.

Published

on

Stacey Lauretta Dash was born on 20 January 1967, in The Bronx, New York City USA, of Barbadian, Mexican and Afro-American descent. Stacey Dash is an actress in movies and on TV, perhaps best known for her parts in the TV series “The Cosby Show“ in the 1980s, and more recently “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air”.

So just how rich is Stacey Dash? Stacy is now relatively comfortable with an estimated worth of $10 million, which wealth she has earned by starring in numerous movies and TV shows during a career in the entertainment industry spanning more than 30 years.

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.
