Ellen DeGeneres Net Worth: New Lifestyle Brand, Hosting And ‘Ellen Show’ – How Much Is Portia De Rossi’s Wife Cashing In?

The hostess and actress is fast approaching the 12th season of her Emmy-winning show, Ellen DeGeneres' net worth keeps growing from her different business ventures, as she joins other Hollywood heavy weights in a completely new venture.

As Food World News has already reported, Ellen DeGeneres' net worth is about to take a new leap into the millions as she launches her own brand of clothing and houseware, created in her own style of both clothes and household items - but it's hardly necessary for the hostess to go through all the trouble of creating a whole new brand.

In fact, Ellen DeGeneres' net worth shows she's one of the richest people in the industry, which is hardly surprising considering she's been hosting one of the most popular talk shows in the world for over a decade, besides a number of other business ventures.

Although the most visible part of Ellen DeGeneres' net worth comes from her work in television (from her own talk show to acting and even hosting some of the entertainment industry's biggest awards like the Oscars, Grammys and Emmys), in fact the 57 year-old actress' fortune also comes from a fairly unlikely place: her own record company, eleveneleven, having signed Jessica Simpson among others!

She's one of the most successful openly gay people in the entertainment industry, joining the likes of Elton John, whose fortune is fairly higher to Ellen DeGeneres' net worth.

Last week, the hostess, who has been married to "Scandal" actress Portia De Rossi since 2008, got the 12th spot on Forbes' Celebrity 100 list after having earned $75 million over the past year, ahead of stars like soccer player Lionel Messi, Taylor Swift's boyfriend Calvin Harris, Justin Timberlake and even the likes of Kim Kardashian and Jennifer Lawrence.

Currently, Ellen DeGeneres' net worth stands at $330 million according to Celebrity Net Worth.
