Eula Valdez 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 Wednesday (January 14) that Valdez is the highest-paid actress in the world, pulling in an astonishing $46 million between December 2024 and December 2025, a nearly $20 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 Filipino actress has an estimated net worth of $145 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 Valdez Burger” chain) in Manila, a Football Team (the “Manila Angels”), has launched her own brand of Vodka (Pure Wondervaldez - Philippines), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Eula) and a fashion line called “Eula Valdez Seduction”.
The ranking is significant for many Eula fans, who have been waiting for her triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
