Michelle is of Hungarian and Irish-Catholic descent, but was adopted and raised by a Jewish family in New Jersey. She went to an arts high school and later attended the American Musical and Dramatic Academy in Manhattan. At the age of 16, Visage won a Madonna look-alike competition, which may have helped her decide to move permanently to New York soon after graduation, in pursuit of an acting career. However, Michelle actually launched her career as a singer, when she auditioned for and won a place in the dance-pop/house group “Seduction”, becoming the third vocal member. The group produced several hits, including “Two to Make it Right”, but then disbanded. Michelle subsequently collaborated with the freestyle dance act “TKA” on their song “Crash (Have Some Fun)”, and provided lead vocals to “The S.O.U.L.S.Y.S.T.E.M” on their song “It’s Gonna Be a Lovely Day”, a cover version of the Bill Withers’ song “Lovely Day”. The song was included on the soundtrack of “The Bodyguard” film and became a no.1 dance single that year, also peaking at no.34 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1993. These ventures all contributed to her net worth.

Visage started her television career in 1996 as the co-host of VH1’s talk show “The RuPaul Show”, and WKTU’s morning show for the next six years. In addition, she was featured on RuPaul’s Christmas album “Ho, Ho, Ho”, in the songs “With Bells On” and “Hard Candy Christmas”. In 1998 she hosted the red carpet coverage of the Grammys, and four years later the 25th anniversary of “Grease” party. She also co-hosted “The Jamz Session” in Los Angeles from 2002-2005. Her net worth was rising steadily.

Michelle then moved to work as a co-host of “The Morning Mix” on WNEW-FM, which spanned a year, and additionally she has also worked on various other radio stations, including Sirius Satellite Radio, SUNNY 104.3 in West Palm Beach, Florida and 93.3 MIA in Miami.

In January 2011 she moved back to Los Angeles to debut as a permanent judge on the reality television series “RuPaul’s Drag Race”, and then its spin-off show “RuPaul’s All Stars Drag Race”. Her collaboration with RuPaul continued, and she was again featured on his albums “Born Naked”, “RuPaul Presents:CoverGurlz 2”, “Realness”, “Slay Belles” and “Butch Queen”, all adding steadily to her net worth.

When it comes to her more recent activity, Visage became one of the contestants on the British reality series “Celebrity Big Brother” in January 2015, and left the house in fifth place. She is scheduled to to a judge in the TV series “Ireland’s Got Talent” from early 2018.

Michelle also published her first book, “The Diva Rules” in November 2015, the benefit of which to her net worth is still to be assessed.

When it comes to her private life, Michelle currently resides in California with her husband David Case and two daughters.

Karyn’s next appearance on the TV screen was in 1988, when she played Lynette from “CBS Summer Playhouse” in the episode entitled “Roughhouse”, but her real big break was came in 1990, when the actress had the opportunity to play Will Smith‘s cousin “Hilary Banks” in the NBC sitcom called “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air”. After this performance, Karyn Parsons had numerous roles in movies and TV shows. Many viewers also know Karyn Parsons as an actress from “Lush Life” – she not only appeared in it, but was also the co-producer, co-writer and co-creator of the show. However, in the show business industry Karyn has been working for a relatively short span of time, and maybe that is the reason her net worth isn’t rather higher.

She has starred in movies such as “Major Payne”, “Late Nights” and “The Ladies Man”, but her last notable appearance on screen was in 2002. Audiences saw Karyn as Lily in the comedy-drama film called “13 Moons” and since then the actress has appeared only a few times on TV.

In her personal life, Karyn Parson’s first husband was Randy Brooks, an American film and TV actor, most known for his role in the film called “Reservoir Dogs”, who is also well known in the soap opera community because of “The Young and the Restless”.

Stacey Dash Net Worth

Published

on

Stacey Lauretta Dash was born on 20 January 1967, in The Bronx, New York City USA, of Barbadian, Mexican and Afro-American descent. Stacey Dash is an actress in movies and on TV, perhaps best known for her parts in the TV series “The Cosby Show“ in the 1980s, and more recently “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air”.

So just how rich is Stacey Dash? Stacy is now relatively comfortable with an estimated worth of $10 million, which wealth she has earned by starring in numerous movies and TV shows during a career in the entertainment industry spanning more than 30 years.

Stacey Dash Net Worth $10 Million

Stacy Dash made her debut in 1982 when she appeared in “Farrell for the People” alongside Ed O‘Neill. Then followed such famous shows as “The Cosby Show“, “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” and “TV 101“. Her movie career started with the Richard Pryor film “Moving” (1988). The 80‘s were actually a really successful period for the young actress, since her other two movies, “Mo’ Money” and “Renaissance Man”, were also big hits. Her real big break, however, was in 1995 when she appeared in Amy Heckerling’s “Clueless” as Dionne Marie Davenport. The comedy, which was based on Jane Austen‘s novel “Emma”, was very well received and grossed $55 million, thus increasing Dash’s net worth considerably. The film also made her and fellow actresses  Brittany Murphy and Alicia Silverstone true international stars, probably more so as it was soon made into TV series and Dash reprised her role as Dionne. The series ran from 1996 till 1999, and also featured actress and singer Cher. During that period, Stacy also appeared in films like the crime drama “Cold Around the Heart” (1997) and comedy “Personals” (1999). Naturally all of these appearances enhanced Stacy’s net worth.

Stacey Dash is also known for her appearances in music videos. In 2001 she was a part of the music video for the Carl Thomas song “Emotional”, and in 2004 she appeared alongside Kanye West in the music video for his single “All Falls Down.” At the same time Dash continued to have a successful film career with movies “American Primitive”, “I Could Never Be Your Woman”, “Nora’s Hair Salon II”, “Ghost Image” and “Fashion Victim”. She did not, however, forget television and appeared in the series “Single Ladies” in the role of Valerie Stokes but, unfortunately, she did not return for the second season. She was also a part of the reality TV show “Celebrity Circus”, in  which celebrities had to perform circus tricks. Dash was one of the finalists, finishing second after Antonio Sabato, Jr. In addition, she also had guest roles in “CSI: Crime Scene Investigation” and “The Game”. All these roles in movies and TV shows helped to increase her overall net worth.

Besides her acting career, Stacey Dash also has her own lingerie line “Letters of Marque” and posed for Playboy in 2006.

In her personal life, Stacy Dash was first married to Brian Lovell(1999-2000), and then James Maby(2005-06). She married Emmanuel Xuereb in 2007, but divorced him in 2010 and asked for restraining order against him, claiming physical abuse. Stacy also has a son fathered by R&B singer Christopher Williams, and a daughter (born 2003). She is very open about her political views and often uses Twitter to criticise certain public figures. Interestingly, she supported Barack Obama in 2008, but in the presidential elections of 2012 she expressed her support for Republican candidate Mitt Romney.
