Diahann Carroll – 83-Years-Old, $28 Million

Diahann Carroll is undoubtedly a great inspiration for most African-American young women who dream of pursuing a career in the showbiz for themselves. For those who might not know, she became the first non-white actress to ever star on a TV show! And yes, it was for her work on Julia. Over her acting career, Carroll has been the recipient of numerous awards and nominations.

Unfortunately, Carroll has had to struggle over the last few years with breast cancer. Thankfully, the legendary actress managed to survive the ordeal. Since then, Carroll has chosen to focus on her health and retired from acting. We last saw her back in 2014 when she starred in the film Think Like a Man Too.
