Ted Danson Net Worth: Ted Danson is a California-born actor who has a net worth of $80 million dollars. He is perhaps best known for his iconic role as Sam Malone on the show “Cheers” from 1982 to 1993, as well as his roles on the shows “Becker”, “CSI”, and “The Good Place”. He has won two Emmy Awards and three Golden Globe Awards, and has a star on the Walk of Fame in Hollywood. Early Life: Edward Bridge Danson III, better known as Ted Danson, was born in San Diego, California, on December 29, 1947. He was raised in Flagstaff, Arizona, along with his older sister Jan, because their father was an archaeologist and the director of the Museum of Northern Arizona from 1959 to 1975. He attended the Kent School, a prep school in Connecticut. There, he was a star basketball player. He continued his education at Stanford University, which is where his interest in acting began. In pursuit of a better acting program, he then transferred to Carnegie Mellon University, graduating with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in drama in 1972. Career: Danson’s first paid acting job in television was as a contract player on the daytime soap opera “Somerset”, playing the character Tom Conway from 1975 to 1976. Then, in 1977, he landed the role of Dr. Mitchell Pierson on the show “The Doctors”. Additionally, around this time he appeared in several commercials, most notably as the “Aramis man” for the Estee Lauder fragrance brand Aramis. In the late 1970s and early 1980s, he continued to appear as a guest on many television shows, including “Laverne and Shirley”, “B.J. and the Bear”, “Family”, “Benson”, “Taxi”, “Magnum P.I.”, “The Amazing Spider-Man”, and “Tucker’s Witch”. Then, Danson had his big breakthrough in 1982, when he was cast as the womanizing former baseball player Sam Malone on the NBC sitcom “Cheers”. Even though the show had poor ratings in its first season, the numbers slowly improved, and by 1986 it was one of the top shows airing on TV at the time. In total, the show had 11 seasons, and aired its last episode on May 30, 1993. It’s finale was actually watched by 80 million people, making it the second most watched finale in history at the time. For his performance on “Cheers”, Danson actually received eleven consecutive Emmy nomination, and nine Golden Globe nominations, winning two of each award. Following the end of “Cheers”, Danson tried his hand at drama, in a departure from his usual genre of comedy, and starred in “Something About America”, for which he won a Golden Globe Award for Best Actor in a Miniseries or Television Movie. He also briefly starred in the short-lived CBS show “Ink”, as well as the television miniseries “Gulliver’s Travels”. Then, Danson starred in the CBS sitcom “Becker”, which was produced by the same company that produced “Cheers”. The show was very popular, and ran for 6 seasons from 1998 to 2004. Beginning in 2007, Danson began starring as the corrupt billionaire Arthur Frobisher on the FX Network drama “Damages”, which aired for three seasons (although he was reduced to a recurring character in season 2). He has also appeared in shows like the HBO sitcom “Bored to Death”; the police drama “CSI: Crime Scene Investigation”; “CSI: Cyber”; “Fargo”; and the NBC sitcom “The Good Place” with Kirsten Bell. In addition to his long and lucrative television career, Danson has also occasionally acted in films. Some of the films he has appeared in include “The Onion Field” (1979), as Officer Ian Campbell; “Body Heat” (1981); “Creepshow” (1982); “Little Treasure” (1985); “Just Between Friends” (1986); “A Fine Mess” (1986); “Cousins” (1989) with Isabella Rossellini; “Three Men and a Baby” (1987) with Tom Selleck and Steven Guttenburg; and its sequel “Three Men and a Little Lady” (1990); Ted Danson Salary: From 2011 to 2015 when Danson starred on the CBS drama “CSI”, his salary was $250,000 per episode. He appeared in 86 episodes, which was around $21 million in annual earnings. At the peak of his time on “Cheers”, his salary was $500,000 per episode. Personal Life: Danson has been married three times. His first marriage was to actress Randall “Randy” Gosch (now known was Randy Danson professionally), from 1970 to 1975. His second wife was producer Cassandra “Casey” Coates, with whom he shares two daughters. His third wife is actress Mary Steenburgen. Divorce Settlement: Danson’s divorce from his second wife Casey Coates is one of the most expensive celebrity divorces of all time. His affair with actress Whoopi Goldberg contributed to the divorce. When they divorced, Danson was forced to pay Coates $2 million for every year they were together, a total of $30 million. That’s the same as around $50 million, after adjusting for inflation. Real Estate: Ted has been married to fellow actor Mary Steenburgen since 1995. Together they own a number of properties around the country, primarily in the Los Angeles area. In June 2019 they sold a nine-acre property in Ojai, California for $8.75 million. They bought the house in 2005 through a trust for $4.5 million. They own a different home in Ojai which they bought in 2017 for $2.4 million. In 2014 they spent $3.5 million on a home in Santa Monica, California and then in January 2019 they bought the property next door for $5.2 million to create a large private compound. They also own a small cottage in Nashville and a six-acre multi-residence spread on Martha’s Vineyard.

Joe Francis Net Worth: Joe Francis is an American entrepreneur and film producer who has a net worth of $25 million. After a decade of legal and financial ups and downs, it is somewhat difficult to peg Joe’s exact net worth at any given moment. Since 2015 he has lived somewhat of an exiled life in Mexico. He allegedly left the US to avoid the consequences of several lawsuits and judgments in the United States. Much more detail on these lawsuits and judgments later in this article. Francis is best known for producing Girls Gone Wild, Banned From Television, and other films and TV series. Outside of his career in film, Joe Francis has repeatedly been the subject of controversy. His activities allegedly include excessive gambling, slander, tax evasion, and bribery. In addition, he has pleaded no contest to charges of child abuse and pornography. Francis has been engaged in a number of high-profile legal battles before moving full-time to Mexico. As of 2015, this was his last known location, and he reportedly lives alongside his girlfriend and children. Mexico and the US have no extradition treaty for civil contempt warrants, so Joe Francis could potentially remain living there for the foreseeable future. Early Life: Joseph R. Francis was born on April 1st of 1973. He attended several boarding schools while growing up in California, and eventually studied film and television at the University of Southern California, graduating with a Bachelor’s Degree in 1995. Career: Joe Francis began his career as a production assistant for Real TV. While working on the show, Francis developed the initial concept for Banned from Television. Using unused footage that he licensed from Real TV, Joe Francis created videos under the Banned from Television brand that showed real fatal accidents, suicides, executions, motorcycle crashes, and many other shocking scenes. Joe Francis found this work to be disturbing after a time, and he shifted his focus towards a new project: Girls Gone Wild. Created in 1997, the Girls Gone Wild videos showed young, college-aged women exposing their bodies and acting in a raucous manner. The videos were a resounding success for Francis, and by the first two years, he had earned over $20 million dollars. The company, which became famous for its constant barrage of late-night infomercials, generated hundreds of millions in revenue during its lifetime. Relationships: One of the girls featured in the Girls Gone Wild videos was Abbey Wilson, and she later became Francis’ long-term girlfriend. In 2013, Wilson’s iPad was stolen, and the device allegedly contained sex tapes of her and Francis. In 2014, Abbey Wilson gave birth to twin girls with Francis through in vitro fertilization. Legal Issues: After a lengthy legal battle with Florida officials who wanted to prevent Francis from filming more Girls Gone Wild videos, he was forced to plead guilty to record-keeping violations. Joe Francis subsequently spent 339 days behind bars and paid $60,000 in fines. He also pleaded guilty to having contraband in his jail cell during his imprisonment. In 2004, Joe Francis was kidnapped from his home in Bel-Air by Darnell Riley, a known conman. Riley put Francis in the trunk of his own car, drove him to a remote location, and filmed him doing degrading acts before abandoning him. This was all part of Riley’s scheme to blackmail Francis for $500,000. After hearing about the situation, Paris Hilton stepped in and helped bring Riley to justice. She was also being blackmailed by the conman in a similar manner. Multiple women have sued Joe Francis for filming them without permission, some of whom have been minors. In 2008, Francis pleaded no contest to prostitution and child abuse charges after it became obvious that he had filmed two minors in a Girls Gone Wild video. After an incident in 2011, Joe Francis was charged with assault, false imprisonment, and dissuading a witness. Francis had allegedly taken three girls to his residence by force after meeting them at a nightclub. Once at his house, Francis allegedly assaulted the girls and kicked one of them out before telling her not to call the police (dissuading a witness). In 2013, Francis was sentenced to 270 days in jail after being convicted on multiple charges. In 2007, Joe Francis was charged with tax evasion after allegedly claiming around $20 million in false deductions between 2002 and 2003. In 2009, he pleaded guilty to the tax evasion charges and bribery, paying $250,000 in restitution to the IRS. During one ill-fated trip to Las Vegas in 2007, Joe Francis ended up losing over $2 million dollars while playing blackjack. The owner of the casino, Steve Wynn, grew concerned when Francis showed absolutely no intention of ever paying the debt. Eventually, Wynn was forced to sue – and that’s when things got even crazier. Not only did Francis refuse to pay, but he also accused Steve Wynn of threatening to kill him, hiring prostitutes to encourage him to gamble more, and other “deceptive practices.” The court showed absolutely no interest in these allegations, and they took Wynn’s side when he sued Francis a second time for slander and defamation. Four years went by, and interest on the initial debt mounted. This brought Francis’ full debt to more than $7.5 million. However, the real trouble for Francis began when he started to appear on national television, repeating his allegations that Wynn had threatened to have him killed. With no real basis for these allegations, the court agreed with Wynn’s accusations of slander. Eventually, the damages relating to the slander charges completely eclipsed the original gambling debt, and at one point a judge ordered Francis to pay over $40 million. Wynn argued that the defamatory remarks threatened the livelihood of not only his gambling empire but also his 12,000 employees. For his slanderous remarks on Good Morning America alone, Francis was ordered to pay $11 million in damages. Although Joe Francis was clearly digging himself into an ever-deeper hole by this point, he doubled down and stalwartly refused to pay. This led the authorities to seize many of his assets by force, including his mansion in Bel-Air. Eventually, the $40 million sum in defamation damages was diminished to just $19 million by a judge. In a statement after his court victory, Steve Wynn announced that he was donating 100% of his court-awarded funds to charities for battered women and wounded soldiers. Girls Gone Wild Bankruptcy: In February 2013, GGW Brands, the parent company that owned the Girls Gone Wild brand, filed for bankruptcy. This move, which was initiated by Joe, was reportedly an effort to prevent Steve Wynn from seizing the company’s assets. Real Estate: After his company declared bankruptcy, Joe reportedly continued to fund his lifestyle through his famous 40,000 square-foot estate in Mexico called Casa Aramara. Casa Aramara is a popular destination for many celebrities and other wealthy elites. It rents for as much as $35,000 per night. Celebrities including Kim Kardashian, Eva Longoria, Demi Moore, Jennifer Aniston and Ashton Kutcher have rented the home from Joe. Mario Lopez got married at the resort-like property in December 2012. Kim and Kanye honeymooned at the property in June 2014. In 2002, Joe Francis purchased a property in Bel-Air for $5.45 million. Built in 1995, the estate features 6,446 square feet of living space and is situated alongside properties owned by many other celebrities in the exclusive neighborhood. In 2019, after many years of being foreclosed due to Francis’ legal issues, the property was auctioned off to Steve Wynn. When Francis lost the home to Wynn, it was appraised at $6.7 million. However, the IRS stepped in almost immediately and bought the property from Wynn for $6.8 million. In an effort to finally get some of the money Francis owed in back taxes, the IRS then flipped the property to Francis’ former next-door neighbor Bassam Alghanim. The billionaire neighbor paid the IRS $8.65 million for Francis’ property, completing his massive, 20-acre compound that includes seven separate houses that is easily worth $100-150 million today.
