6. Milla Jovovich

Estimated Net Worth: $36 Million. This multi-talented actress is also well known for her modeling work, but not too many people know that she’s also dabbed in the music biz and fashion industry. Her breakthrough role in the movie biz was in the French sci-fi flick The Fifth Element, where she starred alongside Hollywood veteran, Bruce Willis. From there, the Resident Evil franchise shot her to new heights and in 2006 she was deemed “the reigning queen of kick-butt” by VH1. Jovovich has released several albums: The Divine Comedy, and the reportedly unauthorized The People Tree Sessions. Milla now releases her singles for free on her official website.  In 2003, she and fellow model Carmen Hawk launched their own clothing line, Jovovich-Hawk. While it ceased operations in mid-2008, Jovovich says that they stopped production due to their busy schedules. And busy, she has been. This year she’s returned to the Zoolander franchise and next year we’ll see the release of the final installment in the Resident Evil saga.
