According to sources, Jamie-Lynn Sigler’s net worth is estimated to be $25 million. The majority of Sigler’s wealth comes from her acting career. Jamie-Lynn Sigler was born in 1981, in New York, US where she studied at the Jericho High School. Sigler’s passion for acting stems from her earliest childhood, as she started singing and acting when she was only seven. Sigler’s first professional acting role was in “The Sopranos”. She was cast for the role of Meadow in 1997 and when the series premiered in 1999, it became a remarkable success among its audience. Sigler’s appearance in “The Sopranos” helped her jump-start her acting career and provided many more acting opportunities.
Even though Jamie-Lynn Sigler was a regular in “The Sopranos” series until its final season in 2007, she also undertook other acting offers. In 2000, Sigler was acting for “Camping Stories” but unfortunately suffered from the Lyme disease during the filming, which resulted in a paralysis of her lower body for several days. Sigler fully recovered from that and went on to appear in a musical “Cinderella” and then starred in another musical performance on Broadway called “Beauty and the Beast”, where she played the character of Belle. More recently, in 2008, Jamie-Lynn Sigler made an appearance in several episodes of the comedy-drama series “Entourage” with Kevin Connolly, Kevin Dillon and Jeremy Piven. In addition to her acting career, in 2001 Jamie-Lynn Sigler launched her singing career with the release of her debut album “Here to Heaven”. However, the album failed to meet expectations and did not do well on the market. A famous actress, as well as a singer, Jamie-Lynn Sigler currently has a net worth of $25 million.

I have no Italian in me. I'm Cuban, Greek, Romanian and Sephardic Jew, so I couldn't get further from Italian. But I guess I've been adopted into that family, too.

[on changing her name from Sigler to DiScala] I never thought I'd do otherwise, even before I met A.J. I'm traditional that way. Once we have children, I'd love for them to have the same name as their mom.

[on ex-husband A.J. Discala] I began trusting this man with my career and now I trust him with my life.
