Some people aim to become singers, actors and reality stars to become rich and famous. However, some of these famous celebrities were born rich even before they made a name for themselves in the industry.
Taylor Swift, before selling out concerts and breaking her own record in album sales, was already enjoying a privileged life as the daughter of a financial adviser. Her father, Scott Swift, reportedly invested in Big Machine Records and still owns three percent of the company.
Before he owned his own clothing line and fragrances, Adam Levine was already involved in the retail industry. His father founded M. Fredric, which was successful enough to send the Maroon 5 frontman to the famous Brentwood School in Los Angeles and later, a private camp at the French Woods Festival of Performing Arts.
Julia Louis-Dreyfus didn't just get rich because of "Seinfeld". The TV star's father is actually French billionaire Gérard Louis-Dreyfus and their family is reportedly worth $3 billion!
Another famous TV personality, Anderson Cooper, was also born into an old affluent family. His mother, Gloria Vanderbilt, supposedly worth $200 million, is an heiress from the famous Vanderbilt family.
Lana Del Ray, as the daughter of a real estate broker as well as the president and CEO of Web Media Properties, attended a boarding school that costs over $40,000 per year!
Disney alums Ariana Grande and Miley Cyrus are also famous celebrities who were born rich. Grande's rich family co-founded the South Florida youth singing group, Kids Who Care, which earned thousands of dollars for people in need. On the other hand, Cyrus' dad, Billy Ray Cyrus, made millions with his hit song "Achy Breaky Heart".
While Psy's Youtube's views for "Gangnam Style" helped him become famous worldwide, his family was already quite well-off in South Korea. They lived in Gangnam (equivalent to California's Beverly Hills) thanks to his family's wealth. His dad is the chairman of DI Corporation and his mother owns her own restaurant.
Last but not the least, Lady Gaga grew up in luxury in the Upper West Side of New York City before she started showing her eccentric side to the world. Her parents built their wealth by installing Wi-Fi accessibilities in hotels and restaurants.
Other famous celebrities who were born rich, such as Robin Thicke, Jake and Maggie Gyllenhaal, Darren Criss and more.
