Jennifer Lawrence earns more than any other actress thanks to her signature role as Katniss Everdeen in The Hunger Games trilogy. Those films proved Lawrence’s box office brawn as a female action hero and helped her negotiate a very favorable share of the more recent films’ profits. Outside Panem, Lawrence is reuniting with her Silver Linings Playbook costar, Bradley Cooper, for the comedic drama Joy. Beautiful actress Jennifer Lawrence also supplements her silver screen income with a lucrative Dior contract.

The Highest Paid Singers (Female Singers) Versus The Highest Paid Models Versus The Highest Paid Actresses – Do Models Make More Money Than Actresses, Musicians, And Singers?

Thousands of our fashion modeling fans from around the world have been asking our modeling agency if fashion models make more money than actresses and singers. We all know that famous actresses and singers make so much money per year that millions of girls and teenagers dream of following the career paths of their favorite actresses and singers such as Angelina Jolie and Taylor Swift, but do actresses and singers really make more money than female models and supermodels? Do actresses and singers get all the attention and all the media headlines when in reality female models and supermodels have superior earnings power, make more money modeling, and actually print more cash than the famous actresses and singers that we all hear about in the news?

The Highest Paid Singers (Female Singers) Versus The Highest Paid Models Versus The Highest Paid Actresses – Who Makes The Most Cash?

Madonna – $125 Million United States Dollars In Earnings For The Past Year

We start our list of the “Highest Paid Actresses, Models, And Female Singers In The World” with the one and only “Queen of Pop” known around the world as simply Madonna. Madonna takes the number 1 spot on the Billboard and Forbes lists for “The Highest Paid Female Singers In The World” for the last 12 months with earnings of approximately $125 million United States Dollars (according to Forbes Magazine). Thanks largely to her blockbuster MDNA tour, the “Queen of Pop” became the highest paid singer (female singer) in the world as the MDNA tour was last year’s biggest concert tour ($305 million gross which means what they made before paying all the tour expenses), and the 10th top grossing tour of all time. The 88 day tour earned Madonna an estimated $32 million (according to Billboard). The MDNA tour also supported the MDNA album from Madonna which debuted at number 1 on the Billboard 200 and generated impressive physical and digital album sales for the artist. Add the tens of millions earned from endorsements, merchandise sales, and sponsorships and you reach $125 million for the past year.

Lady Gaga – $80 Million United States Dollars In Earnings For The Past Year

Taylor Swift – $55 Million United States Dollars In Earnings For The Past Year Making Her The Third Highest Paid Female Singer In The World

Above: Beautiful Blonde Country Singer Taylor Swift Modeling For Taylor By Taylor Swift Fragrance Perfume Ads Modeling As The Third Highest Paid Female Singer In The World Earning $55 Million Dollars Over The Past Year.

Number 3 on the Forbes list for “The Highest Paid Female Singers In The World” is country singer and singing sensation Taylor Swift with earnings over the last 12 months of $55 million United States Dollars. Taylor Swift also earned big as one of the faces of CoverGirl (fashion modeling so in all fairness it was not all singing). For those that still believe that the music industry is dead, it is important to know that Taylor Swift released her fourth studio album “Red” in October 2012 and sold 1.2 million copies in week one. The album’s first single “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together” became her first to top Billboard’s Hot 100 chart.

Think about what was just said…Taylor Swift’s latest music album “Red” sold 1.2 million units during its opening week last fall. Call her country, pop, or both. Either way, Taylor Swift’s Nashville connections helped her music album “Red” sell 1.2 million copies in its first week but as successful as the music album was, the truth is that touring and endorsements (which include fashion modeling for major fashion brands) still make up the majority of her total earnings. That said, Taylor Swift is a record selling powerhouse, moving nearly 3 million physical units and more than 1 million digital albums, and a staggering 15.6 million digital tracks, driven by the release of “Red” and its mega-hit “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together”.

Still not impressed with all of Taylor Swift’s achievements? Well, we also forgot to mention that the 23 year old singer Taylor Swift is also the highest paid female country singer in the world and has taken advantage of that success by signing endorsement deals with Diet Coke, Sony, and CoverGirl (fashion modeling) while making millions touring on the road. Taylor Swift should earn even more next year as she transitions from arena shows to stadium sellouts, and if you are still not impressed with all of these incredible achievements then you really do have very high standards! Our congratulations to you!

Number 6 on the list of “The Highest Paid Female Singers In The World” is Barbados born music diva known around the world as Rihanna who has parlayed the success of her music into lucrative endorsements with the likes of Vita Coco and Nivea, a perfume fragrance called Reb’l Fleur, and a heavy touring schedule. Reb’l Fleur is the first perfume fragrance for women endorsed by Barbadian music recording artist Rihanna. The perfume fragrance was promoted with the accompanying tagline “Bad Feels So Good”. Reb’l Fleur was positively received upon its release and has become highly successful adding even more cash to Rihanna’s bank accounts.

The Highest Paid Singers (Female Singers) Versus The Highest Paid Models Versus The Highest Paid Actresses – Who Makes The Most Cash?

By now our millions of fashion modeling fans around the world might be wondering…Where in the world are the fashion models on this special celebrity list of actresses, fashion models, and female singers? Well, the first model on the list (Brazilian beauty Gisele Bundchen) appears at number 7 with $42 million United States Dollars for the past 12 months with other supermodels following behind (see our “Highest Paid Models In The World” articles and lists throughout our website). Thus, it appears that singers have incredible earnings power and some stability in those earnings thanks to their music royalties and their ability to tour around the world whenever they are low in cash and their bank accounts start looking a little depressing.

What about actresses? Only when we get to $33 million United States Dollars does the first actress appear on the list with American actress Angelina Jolie. Following close behind Angelina Jolie is Colombian actress Sofia Vergara with $30 million United States Dollars in earnings over the past 12 months. Thus, while there appear to be more actresses than models that earn anywhere from $20 to $33 million United States Dollars (including actresses Jennifer Lawrence at $26 million, Kristen Stewart at $22 million, and Jennifer Aniston at only $20 million) the truth is that the earnings of actresses are very unstable compared to the earnings generated by models and supermodels. Many actresses rely on one or two blockbuster films to be able to make the amount of money that these actresses have made over the past year, and if any of the above actresses do not get a major role for a new movie or major television show the following year they can drop from “The Highest Paid Actresses In The World” list faster than you can blink an eye.

Beautiful South African Blonde Victoria's Secret Model Candice Swanepoel Modeling In Beautiful Sexy Victoria's Secret Black Lingerie Modeling As The 10th Highest Paid Model In The World Earning $3.1 Million Dollars Over The Past Year.

Above: Beautiful South African Victoria’s Secret Blonde Model Candice Swanepoel Modeling In Beautiful Sexy Victoria’s Secret Black Lingerie Modeling As The 10th Highest Paid Model In The World Earning $3.1 Million United States Dollars Over The Past Year.

Instability in earnings (as compared to actresses) is not so much of a problem for models and supermodels as many models and supermodels represent a fairly large and diverse number of clients in various industries which gives them the added benefit of revenue diversification. This is the reason why the list of “The Highest Paid Models In The World” rarely changes by much while the list of “The Highest Paid Actresses In The World” can be very different from one year to the next. In fact, Brazilian supermodel Gisele Bundchen has earned $42 million over the past 12 months, $45 million over the previous 12 months, and another $45 million during the 2010-2011 time period. Talk about stable earnings for the world’s highest paid model!

But the truth is that none of these female singers and music stars, models and supermodels, and famous actresses can even come close and rival Sports Illustrated beauty Kathy Ireland. Kathy Ireland was a supermodel in the 1980’s and 1990’s (if you have never heard of Kathy Ireland ask your dad) best known for appearing in 13 consecutive Sports Illustrated swimsuit issues. In 1993, Kathy Ireland started licensing her name in thousands of products around the world and founded a brand marketing company known as “kathy Ireland Worldwide” which has become a multi-billion dollar fashion empire making her perhaps the wealthiest self made model in the world and creating a business empire that not even Madonna or any other famous female singer or actress in the world has been able to match, and that in itself is reason for us models (and our fans) to celebrate as we sincerely hope that models and Supermodels will someday rule the world! Enjoy!

How To Get Started In Acting – Do I Need An Acting Agent (Talent Agent) To Become An Actress? How To Become An Actress And What Is SAG-AFTRA? Why You Need An Acting Agent (Talent Agent) To Become A Successful And Famous Actress

Many models at some point in their modeling careers consider the option of acting for major motion pictures, television shows, and television commercials with speaking roles. Many models are able to get started in acting with no problems while other models do not do as well in their acting careers and constantly struggle to get major acting roles or even secondary acting roles. Becoming an actress is not extremely difficult, but becoming a very successful and famous actress is something completely different that requires acting training, education about the acting industry, discipline, personality, very well developed acting skills, charisma, networking, passion, and most importantly having the right acting agent (talent agent) to help you to become as successful as possible in your acting career.

Above: The Highest Paid Actresses In The World – The Highest Paid Actresses In Hollywood.

How To Get Started In Acting And How To Get An Acting Agent (Talent Agent) To Become An Actress

The business of acting covers many different things such as unions, acting auditions, acting casting calls, acting contracts, and of course acting agents (talent agents). While many will not agree with this, specially because there are always exceptions, it is safe to say that in general (again, there are always exceptions) having an acting agent and an acting agency (a talent agency) is the first step in distinguishing amateur and sometimes professional actresses from highly successful and famous professional actresses. For example, if you live in Los Angeles it will be extremely difficult to get principal leading roles in major motion pictures and movies without an acting agent (talent agent) representing you. You might be the most talented actress in the entire world but it will be extremely difficult for you to get major acting roles if no one in the acting industry knows who you are and what amazing things you can do as an actress.

Promoting an actress (in this case you) is the job of an acting agent and the acting agency which represents actresses (in this case you being one of the actresses). An acting agency (talent agency) could have dozens or even hundreds of acting agents, talent agents, and/or employees (this is common for the largest acting agencies and/or talent agencies in Los Angeles Southern California) with the objective of getting their actresses as much acting work around the world as possible. Try to find a successful and famous actress that is currently acting in major motion pictures and movies and does not have acting representation from a major acting and talent agency. While certainly possible, it is indeed rare.

What Kind Of Agent Do I Need?

Now that we have explained why you need an acting agent (talent agent) it is important to explore the different types of agents that are available to represent actresses. Commercial agents handle television commercials, voice-over agents handle radio and off-camera work, theatrical agents handle movies, television shows, stage, and theatre. There are also other types of talent agents such as modeling agents (think ZARZAR MODELS), as well as talent agents that focus on professional sport athletes, musicians, authors and writers, film directors, producers, broadcast journalists, and other members of the entertainment industry. Even within each major area you can find different specialties such as fashion runway, commercial print, editorial print, fashion print, etc. for modeling agents and modeling agencies (all these areas of modeling are covered by our modeling agency). Typically, the larger the agency the more specialized the agents.

For actors and actresses, theatrical and commercial is where most of the acting work is so from a business perspective you probably want to make sure that you are represented by an acting agency (talent agency) that handles acting work in these areas. Acting agents are also franchised or not franchised. A franchised agent is one who is licensed to represent union performers. Union pay is sometimes much better than non-union pay, and you will get benefits that non-union actors might not get, which brings us to one of the most common questions that beginning actresses ask and that is “what in the world is SAG-AFTRA and why should I care?” which is the subject of our next section.

How To Become An Actress And What Is SAG-AFTRA?

One of the first things that confuses beginning actresses and beginning actors is SAG-AFTRA, specially when a beginning actress is asked for the very first time if she is a member of the union or a member of SAG-AFTRA (a beginning actress will generally be asked this question during her first acting role either as a principal actress, a supporting actress, or a background actress which is known as an extra). Her first response is usually a blank stare followed by “what union” or “SAG-AFTRA what?” followed by a very confused look which even an actress can generally not fake. The union that most actresses and actors generally refer to in the United States is called SAG-AFTRA. Better known by the general public as the Screen Actors Guild or SAG for short it was an American labor union representing over 105,000 film and television actresses, actors, principals, and background performers (known as extras) worldwide. On March 30, 2012 the SAG union leadership announced that the SAG membership voted to merge with the American Federation Of Television And Radio Artists known as AFTRA to create SAG-AFTRA.

SAG-AFTRA For Actresses And Actors – Should I Join SAG-AFTRA? Is SAG-AFTRA Right For Me As A Beginning Actress?

Today SAG-AFTRA represents more than 165,000 actresses, actors, announcers, broadcast journalists, dancers, DJs, news writers, news editors, program hosts, puppeteers, recording artists, singers, stunt performers, voiceover artists, and other media professionals. SAG-AFTRA members are the faces and voices that entertain and inform America and the world. With national offices in Los Angeles and New York, and local offices nationwide, SAG-AFTRA members work together to secure the strongest protections for media artists into the 21st century and beyond.

SAG-AFTRA brings together two great American labor unions: the Screen Actors Guild and the American Federation Of Television And Radio Artists. Both were formed in the turmoil of the 1930’s with rich histories of fighting for and securing the strongest protections for actresses, actors, and other media artists. Its members united to form the successor union known as SAG-AFTRA in order to preserve those hard-won rights and to continue the struggle to extend and expand those protections for actresses, actors, and other members of the entertainment industry. If you do decide to join SAG-AFTRA it is important to remember that you will have to pay membership fees every single year (this will be covered in detail in other ZARZAR MODELS articles for actresses) and you will not be allowed to work on non-union movies, non-union television shows, non-union television commercials, etc.

By this point fashion models and runway models that are interested in expanding into acting and developing an acting career might be wondering if there is an equivalent union for fashion models and runway models. The answer is that there is no comparable union for models, fashion models, and runway models in the modeling industry which is why you want to make sure that you are represented by a world class modeling agency if possible (for example, many of our models from around the world have appeared on magazine covers and/or fashion editorials from prestigious fashion magazines and publications as well as appeared in national and international fashion advertising campaigns).

“If there are no acting agents, acting agencies, or talent agencies within several hundred miles of where you live, there probably is no paying work where you live.”

Remember that the focus of this article on how to become an actress is to also discuss the business of acting: earning money, making a living thanks to your acting jobs, and building a professional acting career. You are probably going to spend a lot of time, energy, and money developing your acting career so it is extremely important for you to take a lot of time thinking about which acting agency (talent agency) is right for you. What might be the perfect acting agency (talent agency) for your best friend might not be the best acting agency (talent agency) for you. Also, if you live far away from Los Angeles or New York in a very small town in the middle of nowhere you might be doing yourself a favor by eventually moving to Los Angeles or New York where the agents (and the money) are located. Try driving several hundred miles for a five minute acting audition and then driving back home, then do the same thing the next day for the call back (a second audition to see if you can get the acting job). You will be exhausted from acting in no time, and your travel expenses will definitely diminish your earnings from acting.

If there are no acting agents and acting agencies (talent agencies) in your small town, it is probably because there is no acting work in your small town (if that is the case try to find the nearest town with an acting agency and ask if they work with the larger acting agencies in Los Angeles Southern California or New York). Local libraries, colleges, and universities with acting programs and acting degrees are also great starting points for starting your research and your search for your perfect acting agency and acting agent. Some beginning actresses go as far as contacting local production companies and local television stations and asking them for recommendations on reputable and prestigious acting agencies (talent agencies) which is what we meant by saying that you will probably spend a lot of time, money, and energy in developing your acting career.
