The 10 Richest Celebrities with Little to No Talent
If you ask my mother, she will tell you that life is not always fair; something I occasionally hear coming out of my mouth when my kids want something unreasonable, like a puppy I’m going to have to take care of myself. Life, it seems, is not fair; and that’s just how it goes. It’s all right, too, since we need a little bit of unfairness in our lives. I, for one, was not born rich and I have to work hard to ensure I have all things I’ve ever wanted.
Maybe it’s not fair, but it’s taught me some very valuable lessons (such as it’s okay to work hard and play hard and also that a dollar has a lot of value when you have to earn it yourself). However, even I can get on board with the concept that life is not fair when you take into consideration how wealthy these celebrities are considering they have absolutely not talent to speak of at all.
Blac Chyna – $500,000
She’s not all that wealthy but for someone who was previous a stripper, she is doing pretty well for herself. What she does now seems to be torment Kylie Jenner on social media to make a point that she is actually seeing her boyfriend on the side. We don’t know what’s true and what is not true, but we know that Tyga has a thing for woman with big lips because these two could be long lost cousins from another mother (or whatever rhymes).
Rob Kardashian – $2.75 million
Now this is an absolute slap in the face for many. We are not without respect for what are obviously some very deep and personal life issues he needs to work out, and we have no doubt he really does need professional help. However, we know that he does nothing. He has no job, he has no skill, he doesn’t spend much time on social media, and he doesn’t even hang with most of his family anymore. Yet he still has millions.
Snooki – $4 million
She’s the girl from the Jersey Shore who became famous using weird words no one else has ever heard of and making it a point to show off her orange tan. She was in fights, she was in and out of relationships and now she’s a mother with two kids, a suddenly huge weight loss and a fiancé and she’s looking to change her image. But at the end of the day, all that matters is that she does approximately nothing, yet she’s worth $4 million.
Amber Rose – $5 million
We dare she was once a model, and we hesitate even more to call her an author. However, she did just release a book about how to be a bad…rhymes with witch and that’s all I’m saying. However, having never read the book and having not one intention on ever reading the book (I like to think I’m a bad mamma jamma on my own, thanks very much), I can’t say for certain whether or not it is a good book. I’m going to say with certainty, however, she did not actually write it herself.
Nicole Richie – $10 million
We are going to go out on a limb here and say that she’s better at some things than some of the other people on this list. She, at least, is good at changing her life for the better. She cleaned up, she got healthy and she’s started her own line of clothing and jewelry that apparently does quite well. She focuses much of her time on her two kids with her rock star husband, and she does a good job of staying out of the press for things she used to be in the tabloids for all the time. She’s not really doing much, but she’s doing more than others.
Kylie Jenner – $5 million
She’s the youngest of the Kardashian/Jenner clan, and also the least talented. I’m saying that she has a lot of older sisters who, while perhaps not talented, have at least branded themselves and started their own businesses that have led tremendously to their fame. Kendall is a successful model. Kourtney and Kim and Khloe have written books, modeled and they have started their own clothing line. They’re the stars of several reality television shows, too. Kylie, however, pretty much takes after Kim with the mostly naked selfies and pretty much nothing else.
Scott Disick – $12 million
Here is a man who has a job making public appearances, getting drunk and impregnating a Kardashian, and he’s rolling in the dough. We don’t know what he does for a living, but he does state he has some brands and some other things in his life, but he has no real talent. I mean, he contributes nothing to the world in terms of, well, anything. And that’s too bad, because he really does have a lot of money for no apparent reason.
Kim Kardashian – $85 million
She’s the woman who rose to fame when her sex tape went public, and now she is one of the most famous faces in the world. She is richer than ever, and she is continuously making money by taking photos of herself and turning them into books, starring in reality television shows and doing a lot of nothing. She is a Kardashian, and she has a famous booty, and sometimes that’s all that matters.
Paris Hilton – $100 million
She’s kind of the original reality star famous for doing nothing but being famous; and she’s good at that. She isn’t good at much else, though. I’m pretty sure she has no other discernible talents. She’s not a good actress, she’s not that good of a model and she’s got nothing else going for her. She does say she has a job as DJ from time to time, but it seems to us that she’s really good at partying and having a good time. And that’s earned her $100 million. I could become really good at partying; I’m just saying.
Kris Jenner – $125 million
It’s probably not fair to say she has no talent. In all fairness, she probably has more talent than all the people on this list, combined. She is worth more than one hundred million dollars, and it’s all because she found a way to pimp out her talentless children in an effort to make more and more money, exploiting the 15 minutes of fame her daughter got for her released sex tape, her marriage to an Olympic star and her former marriage to a famed attorney. Well done, Kris Jenner; well done.
