Reese Witherspoon

Academy Award winner Reese Witherspoon is one of the highest paid actresses in the world. With a whopping $240 million net worth, she must have property investments all over the United States and she is only in her forties. Her fame and fortune are proof of her undeniable success in the entertainment industry. Reese has starred in critically and commercially successful films such as Legally Blonde, Walk The Line, and Sweet Home Alabama.

Witherspoon may be widely popular for being one of the greatest actresses in Hollywood, but she has a couple of hidden talents up her sleeve. This is not common knowledge, but apart from acting ever since she was a child, she actually has a knack for gymnastics. Seven years of her childhood was spent constantly training to be good at the sport. In fact, years later, this helped her performance for the movie Water For Elephants. Lucky for the actress, it became such a handy skill.
