J. Lo can earn as much as six figures a post advertising for companies like Virgin, J. Lo Beauty, Peacock TV, and more. Lopez isn’t just one of the most famous pop stars of all time. She is also one of the best businesswomen in Hollywood, too, as she knows how to add revenue streams through brand endorsements.  

3. Hailey Beiber

Lately, Hailey has been advertising for Rhode Beauty. She started this beauty line, which, while a bit more expensive than lines like Revlon and Maybelline, is still reasonably-priced, with most products starting at under $30. No doubt that Bieber’s promotion of and advertising for Rhode is part of her contract with the skincare brand, which has already raked in accolades from publications like Allure.

If you want to laugh, go follow the Netflix star on TikTok. In addition to the usual celebrity-esque promotional posts, we also get to see the Me Time actor doing what he does best: cracking jokes. One thing we love about Kevin Hart is, no matter how wealthy or famous he becomes, he never loses his down-to-earth sense of humor.

5. Kendall Jenner

Number of Followers: 4 million* 
Est. Net Worth: $45 million* 

Superstar Kendall Jenner has come a long way since she was a little kid on the set of Keeping Up With The Kardashians. She has become one of the world’s most famous models, walking the high-fashion catwalks for brands like Versace and more.

The model has around 258 million followers on META. According to her mom and manager, Kris Jenner, Kendall and the rest of the Kardashian-Jenner clan can make as much as “six figures” for a social media post advertising a brand.

Though he often uses the platform to advertise his latest Hollywood projects, as well as his brands, Mint Mobile, Aviation Gin, Maximum Effort, and Wrexham, his TikTok is jam-packed with jokes.

Reynolds’ TikTok is also a must-follow for soccer fans. Wrexham has been taking soccer by storm, and the Just Friends actor, along with FX star Rob McElhenney, invested $2 million of his money into making the F.C. a success.   

7. Jessica Alba

However, she has a special connection to Ulta as it sells her own products. Alba is the founder of HNST. This company has a valuation of $550 million, and it is famous for its cruelty-free, organic cleaning products, food, accessories, and more.

We even get to see some of Spears’ famous dance moves on her TikTok, as well as her gym routine. The singer most recently posted an ad for her new single, “Hold Me Close,” which she recently released with fellow superstar Elton John.   

10. Billy Ray Cyrus

Number of Followers: 1.1 million*

We get an inside look at the Cyrus family through Billy Ray Cyrus’ TikTok. In addition to behind-the-scenes family videos, we can also see clips of the country star’s performance.

Since 1992, he has released sixteen albums and more than fifty singles, and he has an Est. Net Worth of $20 million, making him one of the country’s wealthiest artists. Though he doesn’t do as much endorsing as his fellow TikTok celebrities, there’s no denying that Billy Ray’s TikTok is quite entertaining.

11. Selena Gomez

Number of Followers: 43.5 million* 
Est. Net Worth: $85 million* 

Selena Gomez is a mega-celebrity, but she’s way more down-to-earth than you might think. The singer-songwriter’s TikTok is a refreshing change from the usual airbrushed, too-good-to-be-true social media posts we see from other celebrities.

According to Who What Wear, Gomez’s TikTok is fun and informative. The singer often posts her own routines and beauty hacks, and they’re nothing crazy or super-expensive. She hawked beauty products like 24k Gold Gel Eye Patches, 7 Seconds Leave-In Conditioner, Nanogold Repair Lip Mask, and more. Celebrity TikToks are hit or miss, and Gomez’s helpful tutorials, as well as her body-positivity message that she has been praised for, are a total slam-dunk.

12. Jason Derulo

Number of Followers: 54.8 million* 
Est. Net Worth: $16 million*

Jason Derulo has millions of followers on TikTok, as fans love the singer-songwriter’s sense of humor. Whether the “Savage Love” singer is performing funny skits or directing mini-movies, he always has something fun going on with his social media.

According to PopBuzz, Derulo makes quite a chunk of change from his social media, too. He has said in the past that he earns more than $75,000 per video, thanks to the platform’s monetization scheme. If he advertises a product, he probably earns double that, if not more. Derulo’s TikTok is funny, though, so viewers don’t feel as though he’s posting just for the cash. 

13. Kylie Jenner

Number of Followers: 47.6 million* 
Est. Net Worth: $900 million* 

Kylie Jenner has 47.6 million followers on TikTok, with nearly 900 million likes. The wealthy millennial superstar is just as strong a businesswoman as she is a social media maven. After all, she grew up in the media, as we all remember her as a little kid, running around on the set of Keeping Up With the Kardashians.

The Kylie Cosmetics mogul has grown up a lot since then, and her TikToks, which cover everything from a “Get Ready With Me” video to behind-the-scenes of her photoshoots, get well over three million likes per video. Jenner, worth around $900 million, is one of the platform’s biggest stars.

14. JoJo Siwa

Number of Followers: 43.7 million* 
Est. Net Worth: $20 million* 

Even if you’re not a member of Gen Z, there’s a good chance you probably know who JoJo Siwa is. The LGBTQ+ icon, business mogul, and performer is a hit with kids. She has created her own empire, all stemming from her appearance on Ultimate Dance Competition when she was nine.
