Emma Roberts has been a mainstay on our screens since she was legit 10 years old, meaning 1) she's very rich, and 2) we're very old.

But the secret to the actor's continued success over the years seems to lie in Emma's work ethic and passion for entertainment. According to a July 2010 convo the celeb had with Young Hollywood, “You’d have to drag me off set. Like, I would go and visit, and my mom would be like, 'Aren’t you bored? Don’t you want to leave?' And I’m like, 'No, I’m working in hair and makeup now.' And my mom would be like, 'You’re seven.'”

Truly can't relate since the only thing I was this enthusiastic about was convincing my mom to buy me the Password Journal, but that would explain why my bank account looks vastly different than Emma's rn. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

And speaking of bank accounts, you're probs wondering how much $$$ the actor has in hers—so let's get into it!

She's practically television royalty 👑

Real ones (aka millennials 😬) know that Emma's breakout role was that of Addie Singer on Nickelodeon's forever iconic show Unfabulous, which aired on the network from 2004-2007. And despite it being literal decades since the project wrapped, this is still very much the vibe:

Luckily for us, fans got to relive watching the show in 2020 after the actor shared her audition tape on Instagram. Ahem:

As Emma grew, however, so did her star power and acting roles. Case in point? Her appearance on American Horror Story: Coven (aka the franchise's third season). However, what was initially supposed to be a short stint on the program turned into the actor becoming a regular on Freak Show, Cult, Apocalypse, 1984, and Delicate—the latter of which is also widely known as The One With Kim Kardashian in It™️.


As for how all of this screentime translated to actual $$$? Whelp, according to Parade, Emma likely received around *checks notes* $150,000 per episode.

The actor is also the famous face behind *the* Chanel Oberlin on the Fox comedy horror series Scream Queensa project we will always be beyond thankful for due to an endless amount of *chef's kiss* memes, including:

Like American Horror Story, Scream Queens is another production in the Ryan Murphy Cinematic Universe™️, and thus, it's likely Emma was paid a similar amount for her role. The more ya know!

Her list of movie creds is *chef's kiss*

Even back in 2006, the celeb was out here cashing massive checks thanks to starring in equally massive cult classic films such as Aquamarine alongside JoJo and Sara Paxton. A retrospective of this film's cultural impact, incoming:

I mean...NEED WE SAY MORE?!?!

Btw, Emma was also a part of the star-studded movie Valentine's Day, which boasts an ensemble cast that includes *takes deep breath* Julia Roberts (aka Emma's aunt!!!), Taylor Lautner, Taylor Swift, Bradley Cooper, Patrick Dempsey, Jennifer Garner, Kathy Bates, Anne Hathaway, Jaime Foxx, Ashton Kutcher, Queen Latifah, and Jessica Alba.

Correction: screaming!

Eventually, the actor found yet another home at Netflix, where she was a lead in the 2018 and 2020 films Little Italy and Holidate, respectively. According to some outlets, considering Emma's clear 'ship with the streamer—and level of fame—she likely earned around $2 million for her role in the projects, which 🤯.

Oh, and P.S. Emma *also* just starred in the Marvel film Madame Web, in which she portrayed the character Mary Parker. Unclear exaaaaactly how much the actor made for the project, but some reports estimate that it was in the ballpark of $800,000.

Her music career? Iconic.

Much like a buncha child actors, Emma has ~dabbled~ in the world of music—a major win for those of us who still listen to her recordings, lol. While filming Unfabulous, the celeb had a contract under Columbia and Nick Records that allowed her to release a soundtrack *and* a debut album for the show in 2005 titled Unfabulous and More.

^ It's the way this instantly transported us to our Limited Too days. 😭

Brands! Love! Emma!

Thanks to the actor's 📈📈📈 level of fame, companies like Neutrogena, BOSS, DSW, and Fiat have offered Emma lucrative brand deals to use her name and likeness. And all of those relationships = major $$$$.

Her real estate portfolio will make you weep

According to Celebrity Net Worth, Emma's first home purchase was a 2,124-square-foot, $1.25 million home back in 2010. And if that wasn't already impressive enough, the celeb then went on to purchase a s-t-u-n-n-i-n-g $4.02 million home in the Los Feliz section of Los Angeles in 2018, which she later wound up selling for a little under $6 million. (According to girl math, that means Emma ultimately cashed in on roughly $1.98 million in a truly impressive investment play.)

Most recently, however, she bought a Hollywood Hills home from British actor Minnie Driver for $3.6 million in April 2022, per Architectural Digest. So 😭 happy 😭 for 😭 her 😭.

So, what's the total?!?!

Oh, ya know...just a not-at-all-casual $25 million buckaroonies! Real-life footage of Emma right about now:
