Celebrities are always a popular topic in our day to day conversations. With the glitz and glamor of Hollywood and stardom, many celebrities seem to have endless wealth. But that was not always true. These celebrities have the most shocking net-worths that you will never believe.

1. Serena Williams – Net Worth: $1.5 million

Serena Williams is estimated to be worth around $180 million. Her 23-year tennis career is the largest percentage of this, but Williams is also a major media presence and savvy investor. There’s no shortage of income streams for the tennis titan.

2. Lena Headey – Net Worth: $1.5 million

It may sound shocking when you learn that Lena had only $5 in her bank account 2 years ago. Due to a very tumultuous divorce battle, she was nearly broke despite making $150,000 per episode of Game of Thrones.

3. Bill Cosby – Net Worth: $400 million

Bill is best known for his hit sitcom “The Cosby Show” and has won numerous awards, including 9 Grammy Awards, 7 Emmy’s and 2 Golden Globes. However, the bulk of his fortune was made from endorsement deals from corporate giants like Coca-Cola, Ford, Kodak, and of course, J-E-L-L-O pudding.

4. Lindsay Lohan – Net Worth: $500,000

Lindsay’s bank account was seized at the end of 2012 because she owed the IRS $233,000 in back taxes. Reportedly, Charlie Sheen wrote her a $100,000 check to pay her debts and Oprah paid her $2 million to promote her own network.

Last year Mayweather topped the Forbes annual list of highest-paid athletes by a wide margin with $300 million, demolishing the previous record held by Tiger Woods, who earned $115 million back in 2008.

In 2003 Tyson filed for bankruptcy, but since then he has managed to increase his net worth back to $1 million.

9. Dolly Parton – Net Worth: $500 million

10. Nicolas Cage – Net Worth: $25 million

Cage has starred in more than 70 films and was once one of the highest-paid actors in the world earning over $40 million a year.

11. 50 Cent – Net Worth: $15 million

He made a cool $150 million from selling Vitamin Water where he held a 2.5% stake, but all that money has gone on booze, cars, and hoes.
