In the glitzy and glamorous world of showbiz, where success and wealth often go hand and hand. There is one celebrity whose wealth has defied all these norms. Despite not delivering a single hit in her career, she holds the title of the richest actress in the world.
Who is Jamie Gertz?
The person that we are talking about is none other than American actress turned entrepreneur Jamie Gertz. This 59-year-old actress holds a whopping net worth of Rs $8 billion (approx. Rs. 66,000 crore). In an industry where pay parity exists, this actress has outshone many male actors in net worth.

How Did She become the World’s Richest Actress?
Speaking of her early life and film debut. Jammie ventured into the world of acting in the year 1990. Her debut film was “Endless Love”. She gained attention and appreciation for her role alongside Robert Downey Jr. However, besides her appearance in several films, she couldn’t quite make a mark as a commercially successful lead actress. None of her films could garner her stardom or establish her as a film star.
After this, she tried her luck in television and worked in many popular series like Twister and Ally McBeal. Her latest appearance on television was in the series Difficult People, and she made a cameo in the 2022 film I Want You Back.
Besides this not-so-successful career in films, Jamie Gertz earned a staggering fortune. In 1989, she tied the knot with the billionaire businessman and co-founder of Apollo Global Management, Tony Ressler. The duo made smart investments across businesses and sports franchises. They are also co-owners of the NBA team Atlanta Hawks, and their diversified investments have grown exponentially over the years. The couple also has three children.
Even though Gertz couldn’t make a mark as a film star, her smart investment has made her a role model in her own right. Today, this 59-year-old woman is the richest actress in the world.
