Renee Zellweger has an estimated her net worth at $45 million. The small-town girl from Katy, Texas, shot to stardom a decade ago with her role opposite Tom Cruise in Jerry McGuire. But it was her turn as the chain-smoking singleton Bridget Jones that put her in the $15 million-per-picture price range. The Oscar winner often eschews big-budget pictures–which earn her fat paychecks–in favor of smaller films like the recent Miss Potter.
