When you’re making headlines as often as J-Lo, it only makes sense to make some serious dough at the same time—and Jennifer Lopez‘s net worth proves that the multi-hyphenate star knows exactly how to make that happen.
Like every smart business person, Lopez has varied sources of income. There’s her movie career, including 1997’s Anaconda, 2001’s The Wedding Planner, 2002’s Maid in Manhattan, 2005’s Monster-in-Law, and 2019’s critically acclaimed blockbuster, Hustlers. On television, Lopez has also starred in the police drama series Shades of Blue, which ran from 2016 to 2018.
She also has her own skincare line, JLo Beauty; an alcohol brand, Delola; and of course, her music career (although that seemed to be suffering recently with the cancellation of her This Is Me … Live tour in support of the lackluster release of her ninth studio album This Is Me… Now.)
ЈеnnÑ–fеr Lореz’s nеt wоrth is estimated to be $450 mÑ–llіоn. Ð…hе еаrnÑ• an estimated $40 mÑ–llіоn per year, according to Celebrity Net Worth. By comparison, Lopez’s beau Ben Affleck’s net worth is a reported $150 million as of 2024.
According to Wealthy Genius, Jenny from the Block’s music career alone has earned her an estimated $95 million. Since breaking onto the scene in the ’90s, she’s released a total of nine studio albums and sold over 80 million records worldwide. She’s also embarked on four concert tours and two residencies over the course of her career.
These include her On the 6Â tour, for which she earned a reported $765,000, and her Dance Again world tour in 2012, which saw her earn over $50 million, according to Money Nation. Meanwhile, her three-year residency (2016 to 2018) at the Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino in Las Vegas raked in more than $100 million in ticket sales, as per People.
That being said, it hasn’t been all peachy. Her This Is Me… Now 2024 summer tour and Las Vegas Residency—the latter of which was worth a whopping $90 million, was reportedly delayed due to her album flopping and lagging tour sales.
While the amount J-Lo made for her hour-long music video This Is Me Now… A Love Story, she did sink $20 million of her own money into it. Lopez could have potentially earned a solid amount through a licensing deal with Prime Video, which could involve a one-time upfront payment, a per-stream fee, or a hybrid model combining both.
As it turns out, the National Football League doesn’t actually pay artists for performing during the halftime show—so Lopez didn’t earn a dime in 2020 when she performed with Shakira. A spokesperson for the NFL told Forbes in 2016, “We do not pay the artists. We cover expenses and production costs.” Instead, the NFL considers the halftime show as free advertising for artists, as they can expect to see extra sales and streams following their performance.
