Betty White tops annual list of highest-paid actresses

In 2023 it looked like the actress’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, she was back on top. People With Money reports on Saturday (November 15) that White is the highest-paid actress in the world, pulling in an astonishing $82 million between October 2024 and October 2025, a nearly $50 million lead over her closest competition.

People With Money’s factors

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

The American actress-producer has an estimated net worth of $245 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 White Burger” chain) in Washington, a Football Team (the “Oak Park Angels”), has launched her own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderwhite - US), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Betty) and a fashion line called “Betty White Seduction”.

The ranking is significant for many Betty fans, who have been waiting for her triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
