What Do YOU Think She Is Worth? Sarah Jessica Parker
Of course, Sarah Jessica Parker makes a ton of cash from her role in Sex and the City. But, the fact is, she would be broke a long time ago if she listened to Carrie Bradshaw!
Sarah makes more than a million dollars per episode playing journalist Carrie Bradshaw in the series “And Just Like That”. Since the sequel to the hit"Sex and the City" has only 10 episodes, there is no need to go and get your calculator. In fact, this is a hefty payout even for Parker. Her second HBO show "Divorce" – bagged her just a "measly" 275,000 dollars per episode. The films Sex and the City did pay off, Celebrity Net Worth reports. Even the second one, which, we must say, had terrible reviews and 85% negative votes for the Rotten Tomatoes.
Now it might be the right time for that calculator, as it gets a bit harder to follow all the money. Ready? Let's continue!
The first film brought her 15 million dollars, and for the second part, she was paid five million more. From the series "Sex and the City", which aired from 1998 to 2004, she bragged about 200 million dollars. Nonetheless, we know money comes and goes. However, the status and fame she got playing Carrie are invaluable and will last her for a lifetime. She learned a lot from her character too. She wasn't as careless with her money as Bradshaw. If she looked up to Carrie, Sarah would probably be on welfare by now, and this article would have a different title. Something like: What Happened To Sarah Jessica Parker? The Falling Star...or something similar. On the contrary, from the last season of the series until today, she has shown an amazing entrepreneurial mind. She even left behind her eternal love, the Beast, in his field.
SJP earned about $ 50 million just in the first three seasons
From the fourth season, she was already a producer and got, even more, almost $3.5 million per episode. Even though Parker did earn her first millions from "Sex and the City", she is still a millionaire thanks to other gigs, that she used her fame to get.
With her husband and colleague Matthew Broderick, she lives in a house in New York that she built by buying and merging two neighbouring buildings into a massive villa. The couple invested 34.5 million dollars, but, the property is now worth much more. There is no business without real estate, and the pair has been a success in that field too. They definitely know what smart investments are, as they bought a mansion for just $3 million, invested „a bit“ and in a few years, they turned it around. They made $15 million, and that is just one example.
Don't listen to Carrie! Nothing is
"just passion"
Parker earned $15 million in 2012, according to Forbes. Reruns of "Sex and the City" are not the only source of income for that year, of course. She makes a hefty sum on perfumes too! From sales and contracts with cosmetic giant Garnier, she earned $18 million in just one year. We know she loves vine, so instead of making it an expense, she instead launched the winery Invivo X in 2019. Now, her signature wine is exported all around the world and even wins prizes in competitions. We must not forget about shoes. She made that passion into a business too. Bloomberg called it the "Empire of the Stiletto", then let's assume that it is quite successful.
Now, let’s check your math! What is Sarh Jessica Parker's property worth? The correct answer is- much more than she earned in S&C, and the sequel can count as a bit of pocket money. It sums up to about $150 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth.
