Highest Paid Celebrities Under Age 25
Want to feel like an underachiever when it comes to bringing home the bacon? Then check out this list of the ten highest paid celebrities under the age of 25…
Ranked by annual income:
(1) LeBron James (Athlete), 21 years — $22.5 million
(2) Mary-Kate & Ashley Olsen (Actresses), 19 years — $21 million
(3) Maria Sharapova (Athlete), 18 years — $18.2 million
(4) Hilary Duff (Actor/singer), 18 years — $15 million
(5) Serena Williams (Athlete), 24 years — $12.7 million
(6) Lindsay Lohan (Actor/singer), 19 years — $11 million
(7) Frankie Muniz (Actor), 20 years — $8 million
(8) Paris Hilton (Personality), 24 years — $6.5 million
(9) Ashlee Simpson (Singer/actress), 21 years — $5.3 million
(10) Adriana Lima (Model), 24 years — $4.5 million
Wow. These are all pretty crazy, but I’d have to say that the most troubling one (for me, at least) is Ashlee Simpson pulling down better than $5 million/year.

Are Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen both making 21 million, or are they making a combined 21 million? Not that it particularly matters.
Comment by Blaine Moore — Jan 13th 2006 @ 1:13 pmYeah, if they have to split it, they’re not that wealthy, huh?
Comment by FMF — Jan 13th 2006 @ 2:45 pmBTW, where does Paris Hilton get her money. It HAS to be from her family interests, right? She doesn’t really earn that does she?
Comment by FMF — Jan 13th 2006 @ 2:46 pmShe gets paid to go to parties, paid for being on television (her reality show and commercials), she has a cosmetics or fragrance line or something, she got some money from her family, and I seem to remember something about a sex video. Not that I’ve ever seen it.
Comment by Flexo — Jan 13th 2006 @ 3:51 pmOh, and she was in some bad movie last year.
Comment by Flexo — Jan 13th 2006 @ 3:51 pmCan I get paid to go to parties???? What a life!!!
Comment by FMF — Jan 16th 2006 @ 6:22 amA lot of those celebreties get paid to go to parties and to perform at parties. The CEO of whatever companies supplies bullet proof vests had 50 cent (he’s a rapper, for you oldies in the crowd) perform at his daughter’s 16th birthday.
