In 2022 it looked like the actress’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, she was back on top.

In compiling this yearly list, the magazine considers factors such as upfront pay, profit participation, residuals, endorsements and advertising work.

The American actress has an estimated net worth of $215 million. She owes her fortune to smart stock investments, substantial property holdings, lucrative endorsement deals with CoverGirl cosmetics. She also owns several restaurants (the “Fat Brooks Burger” chain) in Washington, a Football Team (the “New York Angels”), has launched her own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderbrooks - US), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Amanda) and a fashion line called “Amanda Brooks Seduction”.
