5 Celebrities Infamous for Outrageous Spending and Poor Money Management

Christy Turlington

American supermodel, filmmaker, charity founder, and campaigner Christy Turlington is an example of a powerful woman. Born on January 2nd, 1969, the model has represented Calvin Klein's Eternity campaign twice while also working with Maybelline. The 52-year-old was named one of Glamour's Women of the Year in 2013 and was included in Time Magazine's 100 lists of the most influential people in the world in 2014.

Despite earning fame in the late 80s and early 90s as a supermodel, Turlington became more famous for her investments as a social entrepreneur. However, Christy's life took a turn after she became a mother.

In 2010, 5'10" former supermodel produced a documentary No Woman, No Cry to raise awareness about how thousands of women die in childbirth worldwide. This also led her to establish a nonprofit organization called Every Mother Counts that promotes safe childbirth.

Turlington also works with the international humanitarian organization CARE and is also the ambassador for Product Red. In addition, she serves on the Harvard Medical School Global Health Council and is the advisor for the Harvard School of Public Health Board.

The mother of two is also a member of the White Ribbon Alliance for Safe Motherhood and Mother's Day Every Day. In addition, she has a whopping net worth of $40 million which is being used for a good cause rather than on herself. 

Gisele Bündchen

Gisele Bündchen is not just one of the highest-paid supermodels but also a businesswoman and activist. In 2014, the Brazilian model was Forbes 89th Most Powerful Woman, and in 2007 she was the 16th richest woman in the entertainment industry. Married to NFL superstar quarterback Tom Brady, the 40-year-old has appeared in more than 1,200 magazine covers.

Aside from fame, the Brazilian goddess is also a natural skincare entrepreneur and has her own line, Sejaa Pure Skincare. Its products are inspired by Bündchen’s love for earth & nature, due to which they create products with as little impact on the environment as possible.

Since she is one of the highest-paid supermodels, Gisele Bündchen’s net worth is $400 million. Besides having her own company, the mother of two has invested $100 million in 3G Capital Inc., an investment firm controlled by Brazilian billionaire Jorge Paulo Lemann

This powerhouse firm has acquired Burger King, Tim Hortons, H.J. Heinz, and Kraft Foods. With her investment, the goodwill ambassador of the United Nations Environment Programme is said to have her hands on Mondelez International Inc., which owns brands like Basico, Cadbury, Chips Ahoy!, Oreo, and Pillsbury & Betty Crocker.

Sarah Jessica Parker

American actress and producer Sarah Jessica Parker is mostly known for her role on the hit HBO television series Sex and the City. She won two Emmys, four Golden Globes, and three Screen Actors Guild Awards for her performance in the show. The 57-year-old has had an impact in the fashion industry for her role as the fan-favorite Carrie Bradshaw

In 2014, she teamed with Nordstrom to bring Carrie's show line to life as SJP Collections which later became a huge deal. The shoes cost from $185 to $500 and are accessible to SJP's millions of fans. Other than her shoe line, Parker signed a multimillion deal with Gap, which was quite the opposite of the high-end fashion show she was part of.
