Mark Tremonti Net Worth $25 Million
Mark Tremonti was born into a family of American and Italian descent, the youngest of three sons of Michael and Mary Tremonti. His interest in guitar playing, and music in general, dates back to the age of 11 when he bought his first guitar, a Les Paul imitation TARA for $25. Although he started guitar lessons, after just one class he abandoned it and started practicing alone. Mark attended Lake Highland Preparatory School, where he met his future bandmate Scott Stapp. Mark Tremonti continued his education, and graduated from Clemson University, majoring in finance.
In 1993, Mark Tremonti, alongside Scott Stapp, founded his first band, initially named Naked Toddler but later rebranded as Creed. The band’s debut album, “My Own Prison” was released in 1997, and was a huge success with over six million sold copies. Four singles reached No.1 on Billboard’s Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks chart – My Own Prison, What’s This Life For, One and Thorn. These accomplishments, besides providing the basis for his later significant net worth, helped Mark Tremonti to establish himself as a songwriter as much as a musician.
In 1999, Creed released their second studio album – “Human Clay”, which immediately became a huge success and was certified diamond and platinum by the RIAA, 11 times in total. The hit single “Higher” peaked at the top of the rock radio charts for 17 weeks! For the song “With Arms Wide Open”, written with Scott Stapp, Creed was honored with the Grammy Award for the best rock song in 2001. These achievements have positively impacted Mark Tremonti’s popularity as well as his wealth.
In 2004, Mark Tremonti started another project, another band – Alter Bridge, with Myles Kennedy, Brian Marshall and Scott Phillips, releasing their debut album “One Day Remains” in 2004. Although the album was poorly welcomed and negatively reviewed, it later became Alter Bridge’s only album certified gold. Three years later, in 2007, the band’s second album “Blackbird” hit the charts. For his solos on this one, Mark Tremonti’s performance was heralded as the greatest guitar solo of all time by the Guitarist magazine in 2011. These ventures have definitely helped Mark Tremonti to increase his wealth.
In 2008, Mark Tremonti and his brother, formed FRET12, a production company, record label and an online musician’s community which later released “Mark Tremonti: The Sound & the Story”, a guitar instructional and documentary DVD. In 2010, Mark announced a solo album, but the idea evolved and in 2011 he formed his own, eponymous band, Tremonti, including Eric Friedman, Garrett Whitlock and Wolfgang Van Halen. Their first album “All I Was” hit the charts in 2012, and the band has released two more studio albums, “Cauterize” (2015) and “Dust” (2016.) All these engagements have brought millions to Mark Tremonti and have helped him over the years to establish his name among the other rock legends.
When it comes to his personal life, Mark Tremonti has been married since 2002 to Victoria Rodriguez, and they have two children. With his family, Mark Tremonti currently resides in Orlando, Florida.
He is a passionate collector of guitars and amplifiers as well as pinball machines.

Milla Jovovich Net Worth
Milla Natasha Jovovich was born on 17 December 1975, in Kiev, Ukraine (then in the USSR), and is a model, actress and singer, perhaps best known for her breakthrough role in the film “The Fifth Element” in 1997, with Bruce Willis and Gary Oldman.
So just how rich is Milla Jovovich, as of late 2017? Authoritative sources estimate that Milla has a net worth of over $45 million, accumulated from her various career elements spanning almost 30 years since she began modelling in 1987.
Milla Jovovich Net Worth $45 Million
Milla had a really unusual childhood, maybe that’s one of the reasons for her multi-million dollar net worth. Jovovich started her carrier in modeling from the early age of nine, a few years after she and her parents moved from Ukraine, which at that time belonged to the Soviet Union, to Los Angeles, California, in 1980. She even dropped out of school at the age of 12, when Gene Lemuel discovered her, and she signed a contract with Prima Modeling Agency. Milla Jovovich was covered by magazines including Vogue, Glamour, Madmoiselle, Cosmopolitan, Seventeen, and has been advertising brands including L’oreal, Christian Dior, Calvin Klein, Donna Koran, Revlon for many years.
However, exclusive looks and beauty was not the only value she had: Milla Jovovich has a great voice, a talent to write songs, design fashion and find herself in acting as well. Milla started her acting career in 1988 in the film “Two Moon Junction”, but the roles that gave this girl much more attention were in “Dazed and Confused” in 1993 and “The Fifth Element” in 1997 directed by Luc Besson, in which she worked with Bruce Willis. Of course, subsequently all five films based on “Resident Evil” made Milla Jovovich’s popularity and net worth go through the roof. The original movie was so successful that it was even turned into a video game.
Between her acting in those two movies, Milla tried the shoes of a singer and a song writer, and released her debut album – “The Divine Comedy – which was really appreciated by the audience and critics and even received positive feedback from Rolling Stone magazine’s, John McAlley; in his opinion the album was remarkable. In 1999 Milla Jovovich became a member of the band named Plastic Has Memory, and performed some gigs in New York and Las Vegas, but unfortunately not with her new band, and Milla has never released a second album.
As for her career in fashion, Milla launched her first line in 2003, and her brand was successful until 2008 when she decided to close her business because of lack of time, which is perhaps no surprise, assuming that all of her free time was taken-up by her daughter Ever Gabo Anderson, who was born in 2007.
As for other details of Milla’s personal life, aside from several well-known relationships, she has married three times, all husbands met when taking some part in films in which she was acting. She first married Shawn Andrews in 1992, which was apparently quickly annulled by her mother; ironically, he and Milla were starring in “Dazed and Confused”! The second was with the director of “The Fifth Element” – Luc Besson (1997-99), and she has been married to Paul W. S. Anderson, who worked with Jovovich on the set of “Resident Evil”, since 2009, and he is the father of her two daughters. The family is based in Los Angeles.
Milla is something of a philanthropist too, and often participates in and supports various charities including UNICEF, World Education, Ovarian Cancer Research Fund and many more.
