With a list of gigs you could never say out loud without running out of breath — World of Dance producer and judge, star of Shades of Blue, headliner of a Las Vegas residency, award-winning singer with a Spanish album in the works — it might come as no shock that Jennifer Lopez [1] is, to be blunt, rolling in dough. But the actual number of her net worth might make you fall off your chair.
According to Forbes, J Lo made a whopping $39.5 million in 2016 alone [2], making her No. 68 on its list of 100 highest-paid celebrities, behind other Latinos like Lionel Messi and Sofia Vergara. But that was just one year (12 months, people!). In 2012, J Lo took the top spot on that same list [3], earning $52 million and dethroning Oprah Winfrey [4], who had held the top spot in 2011. Several outlets report Jennifer has accumulated all those hefty paychecks into a net worth of around $320 million — that includes beauty contracts, real estate, and more. All we have to say is wow!
