Celebrities are just like us… except where we consider an SUV a luxury, they might think it’s appropriate to drive in a cool $400,000 Aston martin- to the grocery store.
These celebrities have all the money in the world and while some of the household names on our list, ahem ahem, the Kardashians drive around in cars worth millions of dollars other celebrities tend to opt for simpler rides.
1. Beyonce- Rolls Royce Silver Cloud II
The Crazy In Love singer is known for being a big spender, from her elaborate costumes to a “compound” as her home base, so it wasn’t a surprise to anyone when Queen Bee decided to shell out on this exclusive car.
She confirmed her pop star royalty status with her ride. The timeless and pricey car comes with a hefty price tag, a $1 millions – which includes the lifetime services of a chauffeur! But we have seen Beyonce usually drive the car, herself.
2. George Clooney-Tango 600
Mr. Clooney is not just known for his incredible acting chops but also his charismatic sense of humor. The multi-millionaire has a huge and always growing car collection but our favorite is this quirky one, which you won’t find many other celebrities drive around.
He owns a Tango 600, in a bright red color. The car only has two seats but rather than placed side by side, they are arranged one behind the other. This design structure allows this car to be extremely compact and relatively weird!
3. David Beckham- Cadillac Escalade
We all know that Beckham is a collector, from his tattoos to homes- the man just likes to have everything and that too, a lot of it and cars are no different for the “retired” soccer player.
He owns several luxurious cars but his most-used one is the Cadillac Escalade. The all-black exterior of the car is sleek and stylish plus makes for an easy family car for Beckam’s growing family!
4.Shaquille O’Neal- Ford F 650
No one is sure what to fully call or categorize O’Neal’s vehicle of choice. Is it a truck? Is it an SUV? Is It a Transformer? Our guess is that it is a little bit of all three. The custom-made car is the only one of its kind.
The 7’1 NBA star has always joked about “nothing fitting” him, from his clothes to even his cars and that is why he asked Ford to create this gargantuan car, which is a commercial-grade Ford F 650.
5. Kylie Jenner- Lamborghini Aventador
The Youngest Self-Made Billionaire likes to go all-out! Kylie not only owns several properties but has decided to fill them with cars worth more than most people’s houses! Her newest car though has caused quite a stir.
Lamborghini is a name that everyone recognizes today and while the basic version of Aventador is $400,000, Kylie wasn’t that impressed with it all! Her ride features a custom paint-job matched with a crystal in-lay interior.
6. Julie Roberts – Toyota Prius
To our extreme surprise, many Hollywood celebrities own Priuses, some of them are Leo DiCaprio, America Ferrera, Ryan Gosling, and Kristin Dunst. We could have included each one into our list but didn’t since all these actors and actresses own several other cars apart from the Prius, it really wouldn’t be fair.
It is only the beautiful and eco-conscious Julie Roberts who uses her Prius as her main form of transport and has been spotted on multiple occasions driving it around the glitzy streets of L.A.
7. Justin Timberlake- Jeep Wrangler
This car seems like an affordable choice for a multiple Grammy-winning, multiple Emmy-winning, Oscar-nominated performer like Justin Timberlake. But he seems to like it just fine.
His white Wrangler doesn’t feature any trademark celebrity stamps like custom-interiors or an over the top paint job. Our guess is Justin cares more about his music than cars, which is a refreshing approach to see in Hollywood.
8. Jay Z- Maybach Exelero
Not to be outshone by his wife, Jay-Z drives around a car that is worth a crisp $8 million. Yes, you read that right. What exactly does an 8 million dollar car do? Well, it drives much like every other car!
The price tag might have something to do with the fact that the Exelero boasts one of the most powerful V12 engines in the world and is more akin to a car ready for a formula one race track, rather than your weekly Target run- not that Jay-Z ever has to go on one of those!
9. Simon Cowell-Bugatti Veyron
At one point in time, Cowell was known for his insane spending on cars, boats and even a helicopter or two. Nowadays the self-proclaimed playboy and American Idol judge has turned into a family man.
His choice of a ” responsible” car is a $1.1 million Bugatti Veyron. Simon has spent his hard-earned cash into completely modifying the car, with an array of hard to find gadgets, leathers and much more.
10. Kendall Jenner-Range Rover
Most teenagers dream of getting a car on their 16th birthday and while some do get their wishes fulfilled, most are given a second-hand old and beaten beauty. But when you are a part of the Kardashian-Jenner clan, things are a little different.
For Jenner’s 16th birthday, she was given a brand new Range Rover, costing an easy $90,000. Since then, Jenner has added many updates to the car upping up the price tag and its celebrity factor.
11. Paris Hilton – Bentley GT Continental
Oh, Paris! The original reality star has always been known for two things a) being an heiress and b) liking pink. Both of these qualities are perfectly mixed into her Bentley GT Continental.
The established-luxury car was completely overhauled by Hilton, from its interior to exterior to give it a makeover, barbie would definitely approve off! Fun Fact: Paris owns 8 other cars but this one is said to be her favorite.
12. Tom Hardy, Audi R8 Spyder
Tom Hardy is a self-professed speed junkie and has a car collection which allows him to live out his adrenaline-filled days to the max. While he owns several cars, his most precious is the “batmobile”.
The Audi R8 Spyder was given this fond nickname by fans, when the actor was seen driving in the car while shooting the Batman movie, The Dark Knight Rises. Some think it was a promotional strategy but considering Hardy had the car shipped from London to L.A, we think it has an emotional connection for the actor.
13. 50 Cent- Lamborghini Gallardo
Funnily enough, 50 Cent was buying this supercar while also filing for bankruptcy which led many fans, including us to speculate that 50 Cent was in fact, not “broke” and still lived the Hollywood life, despite all his court claims.
Finances aside, the Lamborghini Gallardo is said to be one of the fastest cars ever made and costed the rapper 2 million dollars. This price-tag doesn’t even include the custom electric blue paint job and multiple interior updates, the rapper requested.
14. Kim Kardashian – Ferrari 458 Italia
We could have created this entire list with Kim Kardhains’s cars and we still wouldn’t be done with her collection. The soon-to-be-lawyer loves all things shiny and you can see that through her cars.
She currently owns a mind-boggling 10 cars. Two black and white Rolls Royce Ghosts, a Mercedes-Benz G63, two black and white Range Rovers, a Bentley Continental GTC, and a Porsche Panamera. However, her favorite car is her white Ferrari 458 Italia.
15. Missy Elliot – Lamborghini Diablo 3
She not only carved the way for female wrappers but Missy Elliot also showed that women can be just as into lavish cars as men! The “Worth It” singer definitely proved her devotion when she purchased this coveted car.
Her Lamborghini Diablo 3 has quite the story attached to it. Missy spent a small fortune updating the car and getting it painted in a bright purple color. As the story goes, while taking the car out on its first drive, it was absolutely wrecked -thankfully no one was harmed and Missy had insurance!
16. Meghan Markle – Jaguar E-Type
What do you get as a wedding present from your royal husband? Well, a $470,000 car to be exact. Meghan Markle chose to display her car and new husband when she scheduled a photo op with it on her wedding day.
Enzo Ferrari himself called the Jaguar E-type, ‘the most beautiful car in the world”. This particular model was finished with a custom wedding date numberplate and tons of glam, all thanks to Meghan.
17. Kanye West-Lamborghini Aventador
Every list of celebrity cars has to have two things, ungodly pictures of Lamborghini Aventadors and Kanye West! The rapper turned fashion designer also has 10 cars, much like his wife – they each have their own car collection, obviously!
While every one of his cars is better than the next, our eye goes only to the Aventador. Not only because it’s a celebrity staple but also because this custom matte car was gifted to him by his famous wife!
18. Lebron James – Lamborghini Aventador Roadster
The man is worth 275 million dollars so, it was no surprise when Lebron James splashed on a Lamborghini Aventador Roadster. When purchasing the car, he liked its custom paint job so much that he decided to give nine of his other cars the same treatment!
We love the daring matte graphic print of the Aventador Roadster, especially since more or less, all of hollwood opts for high-gloss finishes and jarringly bright colors! Tell us, If you had that type of cash, would you ever take the chance on a similarity daring paint job?
19. Flo Rida- Bugatti Veyron
The Veyron is the second most popular car amongst celebrities and when Flo Rida purchased his, we knew he wasn’t just going to have an “ordinary Bugatti Veyron”. The rapper kept true to his flamboyant nature and completely transformed the car.
His already $1.7 million cars was given a bright, reflective and true gold paint job which included flecks of real gold! We bet the auto repair bills on a car like this is a nightmare but we doubt that Flo Rida ever worries about it!
20. Jay Leno – 1955 Mercedes 300SL Gullwing Coupe
Leno was always the butt of his jokes when it came to cars since the retired show host has spent a mind-numbing amount of money on his car collection. He not only buys new cars but also helps refurbish vintage ones.
One of his most coveted cars in the 1955 Mercedes 300SL Gullwing Coupe, which he spent years repairing. Many believe that the car’s price will dramatically increase in the next ten years! Now, that is one good looking investment!
