The Rich And Famous Teens Of Hollywood

They are rich and famous and still teenagers. Daniel, Hayden, Rihanna and Hilary are four of the richest teens of Hollywood.

Daniel Radcliffe, 17
Already UK’s richest teen, he will be paid a reported $50 million for the next two Harry Potter films. He recently spent $17,000 on a mattress, and said, “People seem to expect me to splash out on a classic-car collection, but I’ve never been into cars.”

Hayden Panettiere, 17
A magazine estimated the Heroes star earns $2 million a year. Her untitled debut album will release in 2008. A beauty company’s spokesmodel, she knows her face is her fortune, “I get facials all the time.”

Rihanna, 19
The Barbados-bred singer, whose latest CD, Good Girl Gone Bad, sold more than 200,000 copies in its first two weeks out, says she’s a savvy spender, “I don’t like to waste money. I buy things that I’m going to get my money’s worth out of, things I’m going to use a lot. I like to splurge on make up and shoes. My mom loves bags. I bought her one.”

Hilary Duff, 19
As CEO of her own lifestyle company, she earns about $12 million a year. Still, she says, “I definitely don’t just buy what I want.” Case in point, she thought about buying a SUV for nearly $100,000, but her business manager said, “You’re a terrible driver. You don’t need that kind of power.” She took the advice!
