Just because Jenna Dewan is best-known for being an actress, doesn’t mean that’s the only way she makes her money! In fact, the Connecticut native, 38, has a number of impressive careers under her belt — which, by the way, have culminated in a staggering $20 million net worth. Not too shabby, huh?
If you’re interested to learn how Jenna keeps raking in the mega bucks, we went ahead and detailed her different business ventures below!
Acting: Movies and TV
Yes, we know what we said above, but we still have to discuss Jenna’s successful movie career! While the brunette beauty hasn’t appeared in anything major — a.k.a. award-winning — Jenna has landed parts in some pretty beloved flicks over the years, including The Hot Chick, Tamara and of course, Step Up.
As it happens, Jenna and her now-ex-husband, Channing Tatum, met on the set of the classic dance movie and went on to have a nearly nine-year relationship. While the former costars are no longer romantically involved, they do share a 6-year-old daughter named Everly. Jenna has since moved on with boyfriend Steve Kazee and the pair are expecting their first child together.
In addition to film, Jenna has also appeared on television. She hosted World of Dance on NBC for two seasons, as well as appeared in Witches of East End, The Playboy Club and The Resident.
Dancing
Early on in Jenna’s career, she appeared in two popular music videos: Sean Paul’s “Give It Up to Me” and Ciara’s “Get Up.”
Writing
That’s right, ladies and gentlemen, Jenna is a published author! In October, she released a book titled Gracefully You: Finding Beauty and Balance in the Everyday. In the text, Jenna discusses everything from her style choices to her painful breakup with Channing. Gracefully You is described as a self-help book with an uplifting message. Who couldn’t use a read like that? Sales have sky-rocketed since the release. Congrats, Jenna!
