I read that she had to pivot her career because roles for "older" women were scarce (roles were either you're the 20-something love interest or the 50-something mom). I love that her production company focuses on telling stories about strong "older" women as the front. I'm really happy that it's paying off very well for Reese Witherspoon!
Good business smarts, choices and being able to leverage her star power got her here. There is also probably an amazing team of trusted business managers and advisors around/under her. And by trusted, none of them are screwing her over (as far as we know).
Reese comes from a very privileged background. One of her ancestors signed the declaration of independence. Do im not surprised. That's why I questioned the self made part of this story.
The series she has produced are amazing. "Little Fires Everywhere" on prime video is phenomenal: the writing, the performances, the unique stories. She is really creating very interesting, high quality tv.
Really? I don’t actually think Angelina was ever the richest. She topped the highest paid list a couple of times, but while she is a big name, her net worth is only $120 million. She doesn’t work as much as other actresses and I don’t think she ventured into business at all. Actresses like Sandra Bullock ($250 mil), Jennifer Aniston ($300 mil), Julia Roberts ($250 mil) Jennifer Lawrence ($160 mil) all have higher net worths than her.
She didn't become rich just because of acting though. It's like saying guy X who earned his money through business, is the richest teacher, just because he was a teacher at some point, or currently is.
I'm glad she paved her own way to success after Hollywood kept casting her as the cute blonde when Legally Blonde's message was exactly the opposite of that.
Reese made most of her fortune as a result of her acting prowess and business-media expertise. Rihanna is a music artist who dabbles in other fields efficiently, and Oprah is a media magnate who dabbles in philanthropy and acting efficiently.
When i was younger,i had read that she didnt want to forward her relationship with Jake Gynenlhal. And i was like how is someone who looks like me is the same height as me rejecting my crush. Jake? But as i grow. I see how stromg she is and how much she hustled. and she defined everything on her own terms.👏and even followed up the publishing house news 2 years ago.
Why, because those products cater to women? As long as beauty standards are around, the cosmetic industry will always be booming. It is worth billions around the globe. It won't change anytime soon.
By working her tale off.. this lady has been in every limited series show I’ve watched since COVID began. ❤️ her since the movie Election. She’s such a chameleon that she doesn’t need heavy makeup or prosthetics to become the character she’s just a good actress.
Could Reese be the first blond female billionaire? It's crazy how there are so many billionaires in the world today. Apparently there is a new billionaire every 17 hours. To be fair all of these new billionaires have companies that are valued @ a billion. It's not that Rihanna, Kim, and Kylie have a billion dollars sitting in their bank accounts.
after I applied free to most in charities after being pronounced living in moon, also the supper of free couples by marriages, they still demand only from me, after being awarded the best philanthropic movie producer, somebody always hurts my philanthropic heart, mind, and body. nobody wants to belong to my philanthropic body is the worst happening.
It's 2021, and Forbes is still making RUclips videos with the background music louder than the voiceover.
Man u got a lot of likes which means we all agree with u
Ahahahahah TRUE
I had no idea she was the richest one around there.. besides being a great actress she must also be a good business woman 💛
You sure about that?
@@SideHustleInspiration By the looks of it..
She’s the richest American women actress.
@@anthonyrobinson8900 Who cares? Can't take money into eternity!

She’s definitely one of my favorite actresses. It’s very cool to see what she’s been able to do and accomplish outside of just being an actress.
Yes! Yes! Yes! (Did I sound like Hillary Clinton? 😁)
@@hyperlinguist5687 lol
Wow she truly is real life "Elle woods"!!!
I’m not surprised if she become a billionaire. I mean she is that person who know you can’t wash your hair 24hr after perming
The rules of hair care is simple and finite. Any Cosmo girl would've known.

Well she is married to her agent, so at least ONE of them is screwing her over........in the best possible way.

I hope she becomes a billionaire someday. then _that_ would be what I call a self-made billionaire
What about Rihanna
@@nb6570 definitely is.
@@nb6570 Kanye too
no billionaire is self made. they all exploit their workers.
@@sofia-rp4yz if that's the case, then those "workers" can start their own companies?! oh no, I don't think they will..
Most importantly, she played lovable characters.

Chandler:boy did we make friends with wrong sister?
i thought angelina jolie was the richest. but damn that entrepreneurial side of her is very impressive

She couldn’t have done it withouterspoon
That's the beauty of having your own business
Well deserved.
@ are you feeling well?
@@ginorako2176 ARE YOU????
Very interesting report thank you Forbes

she is one of the richest actor. What you're talking about is whether she is the highest paid actress which she isn't
Wait, I thought for sure that Jessica Alba would DEFINITELY hold this title. WOW!
She now owns Ethereum, therefore will be one of the richest people in the US.
What's Ethereum

What a stupid comment is this? A lot of people own Ethereum, and Vitalik owns the most coins.
Scarlett Johansson should do lunch with Witherspoon sometime.

Reese Witherspoon is a sweetheart. 😏✌🏾
She actually should become the president someday.
Have any Forbes app on playstore
Happy labor day everybody ✌
Reese Witherspoon is so adorable 🥰 to me!!!
Good for her ! Amazing actress and very humble person.
The music is too loud
Why is the music so unbearably loud?
Rihanna and Oprah are actresses too.
Reese made most of her fortune as a result of her acting prowess and business-media expertise. Rihanna is a music artist who dabbles in other fields efficiently, and Oprah is a media magnate who dabbles in philanthropy and acting efficiently.
I thinking they mean made money mostly from acting otherwise it will be Oprah with around 3 Billion

Looks like you?
Jessica Alba is a Billionaire
For sure, he must be new.
No she’s not lol her company is worth over a billion not her
Slow down with background music . Buddy!!
her business model seems better than Rihanna and Kardashian they just sell cosmetics.
Why, because those products cater to women? As long as beauty standards are around, the cosmetic industry will always be booming. It is worth billions around the globe. It won't change anytime soon.
wait a minute! the richest actress is not even a billionaire?
Jlo is on track to be a billionaire with her beauty line
Her current networth is 450
did he say she was raised in TN? oh my gawd she and we are all REARED cattle crops are raised and we are reared by parents family etc
Go girl! 🎉
Oprah is an actress too and she is worth nearly 3 Billion
Oprah is highly overrated
@@Zubair11230 does she care? 🤣 she’s got 3 Billion!
Patrick Bateman, investment banking does pay a lot.
Were we supposed to listen to the voiceover or the obnoxiously loud bgm? Do y'all not listen to your video before publishing?
By working her tale off.. this lady has been in every limited series show I’ve watched since COVID began. ❤️ her since the movie Election. She’s such a chameleon that she doesn’t need heavy makeup or prosthetics to become the character she’s just a good actress.
Congrats Reese for being a classy woman to accomplish much.
Music makes it unbearable to watch.
Didn't Jessica Simpson or the Olsen twins had a billionaire business?
Doesn't Oprah count? She's got a lot of roles, she should be considered.
Oprah is a billionaire but not an actress
Oprah has acted ......over the past decades ....so you are right she would be the richest actress.
I thought Julia Louis-Dreyfus was the richest actress.
Her and Rooney Mara were born billionaires but I think the Forbes list is for wealth acquired after becoming actresses.
I remember her from FRIENDS
Want to become famous become an actor. If you want to become wealthy become a producer.
She is one powerhouse!
She should run for president. I means seriously!! She should run.
I was just watching legally blonde. Such a happy feel movie!
She is a cutie 😍
Just love her... simply amazing
Julia Louis-Dreyfuss is still a billionaire. So what are we talking about here? How are we calculating this?
400M is poor by tinseltown.
Could Reese be the first blond female billionaire? It's crazy how there are so many billionaires in the world today. Apparently there is a new billionaire every 17 hours. To be fair all of these new billionaires have companies that are valued @ a billion. It's not that Rihanna, Kim, and Kylie have a billion dollars sitting in their bank accounts.
Love this....love Reese! I'm going to put my wife in Draper James like there's no tomorrow. Nothing like preppy and southern.
She made huge amounts of money and got rich 😊
I thought Jessica Alba was.
She is a genius businesswoman
Good for you Reese go get it
❤️❤️❤️
Jessica Alba is a billionaire, just what R U talking bout? Love cruel intention series dont @me
Her company was valued at over a billion. She didn't own all of it. Just a fraction. So not a billionaire.
Good for her. But the question is how much is she paying in taxes...if she is paying at all
Why wouldn’t she be paying taxes? Of course she is
By being paid too much?!
Yeah okay and the men aren’t overpaid?
after I applied free to most in charities after being pronounced living in moon, also the supper of free couples by marriages, they still demand only from me, after being awarded the best philanthropic movie producer, somebody always hurts my philanthropic heart, mind, and body. nobody wants to belong to my philanthropic body is the worst happening.
Obsessed....
My mom had cruel attention on DVD she used to watch that movie all the time when I was a kid
Your attention is cruel.
Yeah, Co-founder of Media company and Producer and Actress if you multi-hyphen reality stars...
Shes incredible
Amazing
Music ruined it
So, Oprah, who was nominated for being an actor is not worlds richest actor.
thought she was worth more after selling her movie production company
I never heard about her
That’s a ton of money to bail yourself out when one goes to jail for interfering with a police officer and your drunk husband.
But ….. don’t you know who she is? (Reference to Reese Witherspoon’s arrest for intoxicated and in charge of a vehicle).
Who mixed the audio, a first week intern's 5 year old niece... FFS
Because Vegans deserve the best of all humans
She is not dead yet.. So let's vote for her in next election.
The rich get richer and the poor get poorer
Entrepreneur!
Oprah is an actress too. so this seems to be spin.
I'm suprised...
It’s almost like youtubers don’t have access to Google. Jami Gertz is the richest actress with 3 billion in net worth
We don’t
if u compare her to julia roberts, than yes, mama is richer than julia.
control the means of production and boom! you get Fyou money
Had no idea she was this filthy rich
Salma Hayek's husband is billionaire isn't he?
winning
Legends know her from FRIENDS 😁😁
how about her ...you know......first dream as a child......you know.... that dream of hers....become the first female american président............?
By no
I thought she was dead.
is it me or does Rees'es book club looks manipulative and unethical?
Why #MeToo @forbes
😃🌺
She deserves it. She's quite a good actress
She used her spoon. Duh.
