20+ Celebrities Who Insured Their Body Parts for Millions
Julia Roberts
For this celebrity, the moneymaker is her smile, which she’s insured for $30 million. Being an A-list actress, she can afford the luxury. In 2000, the film Erin Brockovich earned her $20 million!
She also made $3 million on Mother’s Day in 2006; all she had to do was a four-day shoot. With her bringing in all that money, it’s fair to say that she deserves to spend that much on her expensive smile, especially considering it’s the thing that earned her the money!
Keith Richards
Some of the most legendary rock songs are the work of the one and only Keith Richards. The Rolling Stones wouldn’t be where they are if it weren’t for this man’s hands. So it shouldn’t be a surprise to hear that they’re insured for more than $1.5 million by Lloyds of London.
The group still tours today, and he’s considered one of the greats. He was honored in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the UK Music Hall of Fame. Rolling Stone magazine ranked him at number four in 2011 in the list of top 100 guitarists.
Heidi Klum
While doing Project Runway, Heidi kept her legs protected and insured them for $2 million. However, they’re not guaranteed at the same price; the star told Maria Menounos that the left one is worth a bit less than the right.
The reason being she has a scar that came about from her falling on glass. She also talked a bit more about what happens during the insuring process; she says that when she was in London, she had to go to a specific place where they checked her legs.
America Ferrera
America Ferrera is an actress who starred in Ugly Betty in 2007, and the body part she insured was her smile. Aquafresh White Trays insured her pearly white smile for $10 million as part of a promotion to raise money for the charity.
Ferrera said, on Lloyd’s website, that she felt flattered her smile had insurance. She further went on about how it was something she never imagined happening.
