What I'm getting from this is that India is the only country between the three with color TV.

truly the spearhead of civilization

What was Tyler Perry in that he reached those kind of numbers? All I know is that he's into model planes (the massive kind), which makes him cool in my book. But I don't think I've ever seen him in anything?

[-] bobs_monkey@lemm.ee 20 points 1 year ago

He's more into producing these days I believe. He created those Madea movies my wife goes bananas for.

Huh, weird that it is almost inversely proportional to who should be paid the most based on their talent

[-] GCanuck@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Unfortunately talent is less important than branding.

And in Jerry’s case being a writer and producer too, how is Larry not also on the list? Did he lose a bunch of his Seinfeld and Curb money?

[-] abbadon420@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

In that case I know a barista who makes the best coffee in the world. He should be millionaire

[-] fox2263@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

Besides being a bee and having a show named after him, why is he so rich?

[-] Somethingcheezie@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago

Contract negotiations gave him percentages of the shows royalties and not a fixed wage.

Seinfeld was and still is a ridiculously expensive property to get the rights for.

Syndication

Shah Rukh Kahn is by far the ritchest person on this list even though he isn't by USD.

He made this money in a country where the median income is less than $100 a month. The buying power in India of Rs 65 Billion is absolutely mindblowing and not even comparable to the other actors here.

Hollywood likes to swap out female leads for a younger model after a certain age.

[-] FrowingFostek@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Im an uncultured swine. I thought Jackie was American, he is in fact not.

[-] HowManyNimons@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Is this a list of actors, gender specific, or actors and actresses, gender neutral?

[-] LowtierComputer@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Probably yes

[-] driving_crooner@lemmy.eco.br 3 points 1 year ago

Must be only actors I guess, Julia Louis-Dreyfus got billions from his father when he passed away.

[-] Albbi@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

Might be earnings from acting and not just overall weath.

[-] norimee@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

If you take the gender pay gap that is also very prevalent in Hollywood I'd say "both".

You would have to extent the list way further down to find the first actress.

[-] HowManyNimons@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

This is what I suspect.

[-] Midnitte@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago

I'm surprised that the Hollywood elite haven't canceled Seinfeld and left him destitute. (/s)

[-] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

A bit much concentration ...
