Mariah - $100 million personal fortune
Princess of pop Mariah Carey did not even have digs of her own after leaving the $10 million mansion she shared with her ex-hubby, music titan Tommy Mottola - until she bought a posh $9 million Manhattan penthouse. Then she splurged on a fitting centerpiece - Marilyn Monroe's cherished white baby grand piano, which she snagged for a cool $662,500.
"My accountant was dying," Mariah says with glee. No big deal - since the multiple Grammy winner has sold more than 128 million albums since htting the big time in 1990. The 30-year-old "Heartbreaker" currently makes sweet music with Mexican singer Luis Miguel. (The National Enquirer)
