It’s obvious that landing a gig with the Black Ink Crew will not only boost your profile, but also boost your bottom line. The stars of the tattoo-themed show may not make the kind of money that others in the entertainment industry are bringing in, but they’re still doing pretty darn well. In fact, at least two members of the crew are millionaires!
It shouldn’t surprise you that Ceaser Emanuel, the owner of Black Ink Tattoo Studios and a key figure in the show’s success, reportedly has the most money among the cast members, but you may be surprised to find out that he’s sitting on a fortune of around $2.5 million. And he’s not the only millionaire connected to the reality TV show. Ryan Henry of Black Ink Crew: Chicago is estimated to be worth about $1 million.
While Dutchess Lattimore left the show, she still has an estimated $800 thousand to her name, so she could become a millionaire soon enough if she manages to snag another lucrative deal or continues to find success with her other creative pursuits.
Of course, money isn’t the most important thing in life … but it’s certainly nice when your passion earns paper — and lots of it.
