Shake your money maker, but what happens if you break your money maker? You can always get them insured.
That’s what some stars have reportedly done.
Supermodel Heidi Klum recently revealed that a client ponied up $2 million to insure her legs.
Through the years, a bevy of boldfaced names have created buzz for supposedly having their physical attributes protected in the event of damage or loss. Here are a few:
It’s been widely reported for years that singer Jennifer Lopez, known for her famous derriere long before Kim Kardashian became a new beauty standard and Brazilian butt lifts became a deadly trend, had her ass-ets insured.
And while the amounts have been reported to be anywhere from $27 million to $300 million, the “Booty” singer put the rumors behind her when she appeared on a segment of “Carpool Karaoke” with James Corden in 2016.
When the British late-night talk show host asked about the insurance rumors, Lopez proclaimed “No!”
“There is no such thing as that,” she said, referring to an insurance policy for someone’s behind. However, she mused, “I think there is a place — in your homeland — where you can insure certain things, parts of your body.”
The Boricua beauty was talking of the special insurance market, Lloyd’s of London, which insured the voice of Bruce Springsteen for a whopping $6 million, as Time magazine reported in 2010.
Rolling Stones’ guitarist Keith Richards has reportedly also had his hands insured for $1.6 million by the same UK-based marketplace consisting of multiple financial backers.
Meanwhile, the woman People magazine named the “world’s most beautiful” five times has another reason to smile. Julia Roberts insured her toothy smile for $30 million, the 2014 book “Infographica” by Martin and Simon Toseland revealed.
In 2011, former Playboy Playmate and reality star Holly Madison said she insured for her breasts for $1 million, confirming to People: “If anything happened to my boobs, I’d be out for a few months and I’d probably be out a million dollars.”
ABC News reported that country music legend Dolly Parton‘s “girls” – as she calls her breasts – were insured for $600,000.
According to TMZ, in 2016, Mariah Carey took out two $35 million policies: one for her famous voice, the other for her legs.
And when Rihanna was honored with Gillette’s Venus Breeze Celebrity Legs of a Goddess award in 2007, the Bajan beauty insured them for a million.
When NFL player Troy Polamalu became a pitchman for Head & Shoulders shampoo, Procter & Gamble took out a $1 million policy with Lloyd’s of London for his long locks.
“Infographica” also listed world renowned soccer great Cristiano Ronaldo‘s legs at $144 million and recent James Bond franchise star Daniel Craig‘s entire body for $9.5 million.
