Michel Teló Net Worth: Michel Teló is a Brazilian musician who has a net worth of $10 million. Born in Medianeira, Parana, Brazil, in 1981, Michel Teló started playing music as a kid. He formed a band when he was 12 years old while continuing to learn a variety of instruments, including the piano, harmonica, and guitar. Four years later, he became part of the group Grupo Tradicao. Teló stayed with the band for more than a decade as their lead singer. He’s featured on songs such as “Eu Quero Voce”, “Pra Sempre Minha Vida”, and “O Caldeirao”. After deciding he’d rather go solo, Teló was replaced by Guilherme Bertoldo in 2008. Teló’s debut solo album, “Balada Sertaneja”, dropped in 2009. He has since released three live albums as of 2014: 2010’s “Michel Teló Ao Vivo”, 2011’s “Michel na Balada”, and 2013’s “Sunset”. He earned a Latin Grammy Award nod for Best Sertanejo Album for “Michel Teló Ao Vivo”. He was also highly recognized at the Melhores do Movimento Country Awards, earning nominations for Hit of the Year, Best CD, Best Show, and Best Singer Solo. He is perhaps most famous internationally for his hit single “Ai Se Eu Te Pego”. The song’s accompanying dance is frequently used by popular football players during celebrations, which helped contribute to the song’s international appeal.
