1Michael Flatley – $288 Million
Here we are, Michael Flatley is the richest professional dancer in the world!
He is also featured in the Guinness World Records as the highest paid dancer in the world. He got this title because of the $1.6 million he earned during a week of the Lord of the Dance show for his Irish style dancing.
Besides Lord Of the Dance, he is also known for being a part of Irish dance shows like Riverdance, Feet of Flames, and Celtic Tiger.
His work doesn’t end here. He is also the one responsible for the half-time entertainment during Eurovision on April 30, 1994.
If you find him interesting and wish to know even more about him, you can read his book: Lord of the Dance: My Story.
That being said, I will end with a beautiful quote of his: “I will be a dancer until the day I die”.
Aren’t their stories amazing?
Also, I believe you might enjoy reading about the Richest Ballet Dancers.
