Giovanna Ewbank 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 Thursday (July 17) that Ewbank is the highest-paid actress in the world, pulling in an astonishing $96 million between June 2024 and June 2025, a nearly $60 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 Brazilian actress-model has an estimated net worth of $275 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 Ewbank Burger” chain) in Brasília, a Football Team (the “São Paulo Angels”), has launched her own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderewbank - Brazil), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Giovanna) and a fashion line called “Giovanna Ewbank Seduction”.

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