Celebrities live in a world where their looks, voice, or even legs can be worth millions. And when your body is basically your brand, it only makes sense to protect the moneymakers, right? Over the years, some stars have taken that very literally—by insuring specific body parts for jaw-dropping amounts. From legs to lips, here are 10 famous celebs who said, “Better safe than sorry!”
1. Jennifer Lopez – Booty: $27 Million
Let’s kick things off with the queen of curves. Rumors have swirled for years that J.Lo insured her most iconic asset—her booty—for a cool $27 million. While she’s joked about it in interviews, it’s not hard to imagine someone putting a hefty price tag on something that’s practically pop culture history.
2. David Beckham – Legs: $70 Million
When you’re one of the world’s most famous soccer players (and a global fashion icon), your legs are your livelihood. Beckham reportedly took out a $70 million insurance policy on his legs at the height of his career. Makes sense—those legs scored more than just goals.
3. Mariah Carey – Vocal Cords and Legs: $70 Million (Each!)
Only Mariah would double down with two massive insurance policies. In 2016, she reportedly insured her voice and her legs for $70 million each. Let’s be real—her five-octave range and those famous “gams” have both earned diva-level protection.
4. Rihanna – Legs: $1 Million
Back in 2007, Gillette named RiRi their “Celebrity Legs of a Goddess” and, in the process, insured her legs for $1 million. It’s not the biggest number on this list, but hey—those legs helped launch a fashion empire and many red carpet slays.
5. Cristiano Ronaldo – Legs: $144 Million
Yep, even more than Beckham. Real Madrid reportedly insured Ronaldo’s legs for a staggering $144 million. When you’re one of the most valuable athletes in the world, it’s not just about talent—it’s also about protecting the goods.
6. Heidi Klum – Legs: $2 Million
The supermodel and TV host had her legs insured, but here’s the twist—one leg was valued more than the other! Turns out, a small scar on one leg dropped its value a bit. Proof that even perfection has its price tags.
7. Julia Roberts – Smile: $30 Million
Julia’s million-dollar smile? Try $30 million. Her trademark grin lit up countless rom-coms and sold even more tickets, so it’s no surprise it was considered worth insuring. Talk about putting your money where your mouth is.
8. Daniel Craig – Body: $9.5 Million
When you’re James Bond, your whole body is basically a weapon (and a ticket-selling machine). During the filming of Quantum of Solace, Craig reportedly insured himself for nearly $10 million due to all the stunts he insisted on doing himself. Commitment!
9. America Ferrera – Smile: $10 Million
When she became the face of Aquafresh’s “Million Dollar Smile” campaign, her teeth were insured for—wait for it—$10 million. That Ugly Betty smile wasn’t just charming, it was priceless.
10. Miley Cyrus – Tongue: (Rumored)
Okay, this one’s a bit of a curveball. While it’s more rumor than confirmed fact, there’s been talk that Miley insured her tongue during the peak of her twerking, tongue-out era. Honestly, it was basically a co-star in every performance back then, so it wouldn’t be the strangest thing.
Final Thoughts
We insure cars, houses, even phones—so it’s really not that wild when celebs insure their most iconic features. Whether it’s about preserving a brand or just playing it safe, these policies show that fame isn’t just about talent—it’s a business. And sometimes, that business means making sure your legs (or smile, or tongue) are covered for millions.
