Whether in Bollywood or Hollywood, it's widely acknowledged that actresses are generally compensated less than their male counterparts.
However, have you ever come across an actress who surpasses renowned Indian actors such as Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Prabhas, Nagarjuna, and others in terms of wealth? Well, it's true.
Jami Gertz holds the distinction of being the wealthiest actress globally, with a net worth exceeding USD 3 billion.
What's astonishing is that Jami has not starred in a single blockbuster film thus far and has only been featured in five productions over a span of more than two decades.
Moreover, her name is not as recognizable in Hollywood as figures like Julia Roberts, Angelina Jolie, and Jennifer Aniston, among others.
Interestingly, Jami primarily amassed her fortune through astute business investments.
Furthermore, she shares ownership of the NBA team Atlanta Hawks. Presently 57 years old, Jami embarked on her acting journey in the 1970s as a child artist.
Her cinematic debut was in 1981 with 'Endless Love,' and she subsequently appeared in numerous films and TV series like 'Twister,' 'Still Standing,' and 'The Neighbours.' However, her on-screen appearances dwindled post the 1990s.
Her most recent involvement was a cameo in the 2022 release 'I Want You Back.'
