Peter Andre, 51, $16 Million

The twists and turns in the lives of performing artists can make for exciting reality television. That may sound odd for mortals like us, but for celebrity Peter Andre, that describes what happened to him.

Peter was a hunky singer that churned out a few pop hits like Flava and Mysterious Girl before falling out of the public eye. Then came the show I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!, and just like that, he was back on the map and started getting lucrative deals. It seems that the songwriter made the switch to acting in time to rejuvenate his finances.
