Jeffree Star has been able to create a beauty empire that’s resulted in some incredible
purchasing power.
If you take a quick look through Jeffree’s Instagram, it’s pretty easy to tell that
the make-up star loves cars!
Especially ones that are painted pink
He has a pink BMW i8 Coupe worth around $150k
And while the car unfortunately got wrecked in an accident, it was no problem because
Jeffree went and picked up a pink Lamborghini Huracan worth $200k
Is it Huracan? Huricane? Hurica... I'm gonna roll with Huracan.
A BMW Z4 worth around $70 thousand
A pink Rolls Royce Wraith which go for more than $300k
And a pink Tesla Model X worth more than $82 thousand dollars
But not all of the pink cars he takes pictures with are his own…
The Dipset legend, Camron, called Jefree out for posting a picture with his Pink Audi
His Instagram caption read: “Damn @jefreestar u coulda left my plates
out da pick bro #BowWowChallenge Lol.
Congrats on ya success.
But one thing that Jefree definitely does own, is his 7,000 square foot Calabasas home
reportedly worth 3.6 million dollars.
According to wealthygorilla.com Jeffree Star is worth $50 million, Elle.com estimates he
is worth closer to $70 million after taxes, while celebrity net worth pegs Jeffree Star
at around $75 mill.
Through a highly successful YouTube channel with more than 14 million subscribers and
over a billion views, a cosmetic line, brand partnerships and according to Jeffree, about
ten other businesses that he’s currently running besides the cosmetics company, to call Jeffree
successful is an understatement.
But most recently, Jeffree’s net worth might have dropped by a couple million dollars after
his store was robbed!
Stating:
"One of my stock and shipping facility warehouses was broken into and over 2.5 million dollars
of product was stolen from me."
After pictures leaked online of Jeffree Star’s new make-up products being sold prior to the
official release, people began to suspect that there were some samples stolen.
Although details are still being revealed by the police, and the FBI is even investigating
the case, according to Star, the burglars came in through the roof of their facility
at 1 am on Friday March 15th and had a truck waiting outside.
Jeffree believes that it was an inside job done by someone who temporarily worked at
the facility.
"They took thousands of Northern Lights, they took thousands of lip liners, and they took
an entire shade of f***ing concealer ... Shade C5 ... I have a few hundred left."
But hey, the video Star posted explaining the robbery has over 10 million views on YouTube,
so at least he made some of that money back!
the last month of my life has been an insane rollercoaster of emotions.
What’s going on good people in the comment section?
I hope you’re having one Hecht of a day, my name is Jeremy Hecht and today we’ll
be going through the rich life of Jeffree Star.
If you’re new here, I’m the LA host for this channel and I’ve covered other people
like Billie Eilish and Liza Koshy so be sure to check those out after you’re finished
watching this video and let me know what you thought and who to cover next in the comments
down below!
And if nobody’s told you yet today, I love you!
As always with our rich life videos, I’ve got a question for you.
Today’s question is:
What is so different about Jeffree Star’s inhaler?
Stick around until the end to find out!
Alright, let’s get into it.
Jefree star was born Jefreey Lynn Steininger Jr. on November 15, 1985 in Orange County,
California.
His dad passed away when Jefree was only 6 years old.
But it was his mother, who provided inspiration for a young Jeffree through her modeling career.
He would tag along with his mom to her photoshoots and began to experiment with make up at the
age of 12.
And by middle school, he would wear full make up to school.
After high school, Jeffree got a fake ID and made connections in the industry, eventually
landing a gig as a makeup artist for bands, through the company Hustler.
But it was when Myspace launched in 2003 that Jeffree really made his online presence known.
He ended up having over 1 million friends on the site.
I only had 4 Myspace friends, and one of them was Tom.
Anyways…
Jeffree ended up dabbling in the music world and somehow, he gained a huge audience.
And while his music career didn’t exactly have too much longevity, he found his true
calling in the world of makeup.
And it was actually when he started his own YouTube channel, that his career that blew up
But if you’ve heard the name Jeffree Star, it hasn’t always been in a positive light.
Jeffree has been notoriously known for controversy.
In fact, he’s had beef with multiple members of the Kardashian Jenner family, Laura Lee,
random fans, Kat Von Dee and many more.
But it was former collaborator Kat Von Dee who released footage of Jeffree back in the
day where he was spewing insulant racism that was beyond ignorant.
Kim Kardashian originally defended Jeffree, but then took back the comments later on.
And honestly, while he has since apologized for the remarks stating that’s he’s grown
a lot, in my opinion, the comments were made when he was still old enough to know better,
but chose not to do better.
I believe in growth and I’m open to change, but some of the things said were just flat
out racist and hard to get over, so I still feel a way about it Jeffree.
Not to mention the more recent comments.
But maybe I’m just mad because he came for Paris Hilton at one point.
Apparently he said:
“In the beginning, I was just a makeup artist and I never really pictured myself doing anything
else.
I kind of want to be that indie rock Paris Hilton, but with actual intelligence, she’s
just stupid”…
Hey, First of all, Stars Are Blind is an absolutely classic song, and second of all, Paris created
a business empire for herself, so she is definitely not stupid.
Okay?
Plus, you tweeted this in 2009, so I know you’re a fan
I know the stans are gonna get at me for that take but I’m okay with that.
Alright, now that you know my thoughts and Jeffrey’s come up, let’s get on with the
video.
So how does Jeffree make so much money?
Well YouTube views will bring in a good amount of revenue, especially since he has over 1
billion of them.
But his biggest revenue stream comes through his cosmetics brand.
For each product launch, Jeffree reportedly makes $7.2 million dollars.
He owns his own shipment and fulfillment center, a merchandise company and prints and manufactures
all of his own stuff.
I guess they just need to make sure they have a more secure roof…
Jeffree also invests in properties around the world as well as marijuana businesses.
And, he’s got a very successful clothing line:
All of that, brings in millions of dollars for the beauty star.
And a lot of spending power.
So what does Jeffree spend his money on?
It seems like Jeffree’s biggest purchases are his cars.
He bought a BMWi8 worth $150 grand, and with West Coast Customs hitting him with the custom
pink interior, that price tag definitely went up.
But since that one got a little banged up though, it looks like he got a new one, this time
with a light blue finish:
His pink Lambo has a 5.2-liter V10 engine, 600 horsepower and can go from 0 to 60 miles
per hour in 3.4 seconds.
That’s almost as fast as I’ll run to the door if you tell me you have poptarts.
When he posted a picture of his pink lambo to Instagram, Jeffree said this:
Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would ever buy a Lamborghini...
Sometimes my life feels like a crazy dream but then I pinch myself and remind myself
of all the struggles, hard times, sleeping on friends couches to get to work when I couldn’t
afford my own place..
I remember my first car was a 1991 Nissan and it would break down all the time when
I was a freelance makeup artist and worked at MAC.
What am I getting at?
That ANYTHING is possible.
Long way from a ’91 Nissan.
On the BMW Z4, he has custom pink exterior of course but rocks black rims and dark tints
on the windows.
He has a Tesla with the license plate misery, although I think driving that car would be
anything but miserable.
A yellow Lambo SUV and posing in front of it, he’s repping the red Balenciaga’s
on his feet with Fendi trackpants.
That’s an expensive Instagram pic.
Here he’s posted with Louboutin shoes and Givenchy sunglasses again in front of the Lambo.
You can’t just be rocking a Hanes white tee if you’re going to be posing in front
of a car that’s worth an entire Target store combined
Seems like Jeffree also likes to hit Taco Bell, but I have a feeling they’re paying
him some good money to eat their food.
Here Jeffree is also seen in front of a Jeep Wrangler
And I have to mention the Black Badge Edition of the 2018 Rolls Royce Wraith that has a
V12 engine and 624 horsepower.
The grill and the hood are painted black with the exterior barbie pink and white leather
seats on the interior.
This was a dream of mine to own when I was a little girl growing up playing with makeup
and watching music videos and MTV Cribs and seeing all this crazy s*** to have it translate into your driveway
Is a little f***ing crazy.
Plus who can forget the stars on the roof:
you can adjust how bright they are,
you can dim them down at night when you're driving they're so stunning and probably my favourite thing about the car.
But when Jeffree is travelling, he always makes sure to fly in style wearing Louis Vuitton
pajamas and slippers on a private jet
And he makes sure his dogs are comfortable during the flights.
Damn, when I paws to think about it, those dogs are flying way more luxuriously than
I ever have…
Jeffree’s also has taken private helicopter rides.
And always makes sure that no matter where he’s going, there is no shortage of designer
brands on the outfits.
Here Jeffree’s got a Balmain matching outfit and a red tom ford jacket
Gucci purses galore.
A lot… and I say a lot…of Hermes purses, which can run anywhere between 3 and 90 grand
online.
He even gives away Gucci backpacks to his fans during contests…
That’s an expensive giveaway…
Jefree likes to stay pretty icy in terms of jewelry.
From the custom diamond grills made by Johnny Dang who has made grills for Travis Scott,
Quavo, Big Sean, Lil John and even Beyonce.
The price of custom grills isn’t even listed on his site, but I’m guessing they are worth
a lot…
To whatever this iced out Balmain outfit is:
These iced out Dolce and Gabana glasses
And of course, this chain that reads a word that I will never be caught saying out loud…
But Jeffree’s not too big to shop at TJ Maxx
And I respect that, TJ Maxx is legendary.
He’s got gold beats
and even his earbuds are expensive…
And they aren’t just airpods…
They’re Louis Vuitton headphones…
And who can forget, Jeffree’s Louis Vuitton inhaler.
Yeah, I said that right.
On the caption he asks, who else here has asthma?
Well, I do, but I have the regular blue one and not one made by one of the most expensive
brands in the world.
But there's the answer to your question and anyways, that’s it for this video!
Let me know who to cover next in the comments down below and I’ll see you in the next one
Dream Good, Live Better and I hope you have one Hecht of a day.
