Annie Lennox Net Worth: Annie Lennox OBE is a Scottish musician and activist who has a net worth of $60 million. Lennox is known as a member of the Eurythmics and for a successful solo career that has spanned more than four decades. To date, the Eurythmics alone have sold more than 80 million records worldwide. When combined with tens of millions of solo albums sold, Annie is one the best-selling musical artists in history. Lennox’s solo career began in the early ’90s with her debut album “Diva” (1992) landing at #1 in the U.K. and #23 in the U.S. It eventually went double platinum, and her follow-up effort, the 1995 cover album “Medusa,” claimed the top spot in the U.K. and eleventh in the United States. “No More ‘I Love You’s” became Annie’s best-debuting single in the United Kingdom at number two and earned her a Grammy Award for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance. She went on to release four more solo studio albums: “Bare” (2003), “Songs of Mass Destruction” (2007), “A Christmas Cornucopia” (2010), and “Nostalgia” (2014). In 2011, Lennox was appointed an Officer of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire for her charity work. Early Life: Annie Lennox was born Ann Griselda Lennox on December 25, 1954, in Aberdeen, Scotland. She is the daughter of Thomas and Dorothy Lennox, and she began studying piano, flute, and harpsichord at London’s Royal Academy of Music at the age of 17. Annie received a student grant, and she worked as a shop assistant, waitress, and barmaid to earn money and performed with a few bands during her time at the Royal Academy. In 1997, the school made Lennox an honorary Fellow. Career: Lennox played flute with the band Dragon’s Playground in 1976 and sang lead for The Tourists in the late 1970s. After The Tourists disbanded in 1980, Annie and band mate Dave Stewart formed Eurythmics, releasing the album “In the Garden” the following year. The duo released six more studio albums before Lennox went solo in 1990, spawning hit singles such as “Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)” (1983), “Who’s That Girl?” (1983), “There Must Be an Angel (Playing with My Heart)” (1985), and “Thorn in My Side” (1986). Eurythmics reunited in the late 1990s, releasing the album “Peace” in 1999. Annie released her debut solo album, “Diva,” in 1992, and it went 4x Platinum in the U.K. and 2x Platinum in the U.S. and Canada. The album featured the singles “Why” and “Walking on Broken Glass,” which both reached the top 10 on the U.K. charts. “Rolling Stone” magazine included “Diva” in their 1999 “Essential Recordings of the 90’s” list. Lennox’s second solo album, 1995’s “Medusa,” included covers of songs by Neil Young, Bob Marley, and Paul Simon and went 2x Platinum in the U.S., U.K., and Canada. In 2003, Annie released her third solo album, “Bare,” and embarked on her first solo tour, and in 2004, she toured North America with Sting. She then released 2007’s “Songs of Mass Destruction” and 2009’s “The Annie Lennox Collection” before putting out a holiday album, “A Christmas Cornucopia,” in 2010. In 2012, Lennox performed at the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Concert and the Summer Olympics Closing Ceremony, and two years later, she released the album “Nostalgia,” which included covers of songs she loved as a child, such as “I Put a Spell on You,” “Summertime,” and “Georgia on My Mind.” Activism: Lennox began working with the Sing Foundation in the late 1980s, and in 1990, she recorded a cover of “Ev’ry Time We Say Goodbye” for “Red Hot + Blue,” a Cole Porter tribute album that benefited AIDS awareness. Annie and Dave Stewart donated the profits from the Eurythmics’ 1999 tour to Greenpeace and Amnesty International. In 2007, Lennox created The SING Campaign, a charitable organization that raises money and awareness for women and children living with HIV and AIDS. That year she also took part in the Nobel Peace Prize Concert in Oslo, Norway.

Patrick Duffy Net Worth: Patrick Duffy is an American actor who has a net worth of $30 million. He is probably best known for his role as Bobby Ewing in the original, long-running CBS primetime soap opera “Dallas” which debuted in the late ’70s (and again in the new version of the show on TNT in 2012). In the 1990s he also starred in the series “Step By Step.” Early Life: Patrick Duffy was born May 17, 1949 in Townsend, Montana, the son of tavern owners Terence and Marie “Babe” Duffy. The family moved to Everett, Washington where Duffy attended Cascade High School. During his teenage years, Duffy participated in the Drama and Pep Clubs. He graduated from the University of Washington in 1971 with a degree in drama and credits in theater arts that allowed him to teach. During his senior year of college, Duffy ruptured his vocal cords and worked as an interpreter for ballet, opera, and orchestra companies around Washington, and he also taught mime and movement classes. Career: Duffy moved to Los Angeles, California in the early ’70s where he spent several years trying to make it as an actor. After appearing in minor roles in a few TV movies and in an episode of “Switch” in 1976, his big break came in 1976 when he landed the lead part on the science-fiction series “Man From Atlantis.” On the show, Duffy played Mark Harris, a being from the lost continent of Atlantis who was discovered unconscious on a beach by a research scientist. While he looked human, Harris had webbed hands and feet and could only spend a certain amount of time out of the water. The show only lasted a season, airing from the fall of 1977 to the following spring. His next role would turn out to define his career, though “Dallas” was not an immediate hit. Despite the show’s eventual, almost-cult success, Duffy grew tired of playing the nice guy and left the series in 1985 in search of more adventurous roles. He was ‘killed off’ in the show. After Duffy’s departure, “Dallas” took a dive in ratings and in 1986 Duffy was convinced to return to the show and to his character as nice guy Bobby Ewing. The show’s writers explained Ewing’s disappearance with a now-famous shower scene where he reappeared, revealing that his demise had been ‘only a dream’. While this tactic was not popular with everyone, it has become a noted part of TV history (just as the cliffhanger ‘Who Shot J.R.?’ will forever live on in the legacy that is Dallas). Not long after returning to “Dallas,” Duffy suffered a huge personal tragedy when his parents, Terence and Babe, were killed during a robbery attempt at their tavern in Boulder, Montana. Out of respect for Duffy and his immense loss, the series’ production was briefly paused. Duffy then remained with “Dallas” until its cancellation in 1991. Duffy also appeared in several episodes of the “Dallas” spinoff, “Knots Landing” between 1979-1982. Throughout “Dallas”‘s 13 years on air, Duffy directed several episodes of the series. Meanwhile, Duffy was also trying his hand at a singing career and had a hit in Europe in 1983 with “Together We’re Strong”, a duet with French singer Mireille Mathieu. Their song reached No. 5 in the Netherlands in April 1983. From 1991 to 1998, Patrick starred as Frank Lambert on the family sitcom Step By Step alongside Suzanne Somers. The show aired 160 episodes over 7 seasons on ABC as part of its Friday night TGIF lineup and eventually has become a staple of syndicated television. Patrick directed 49 of the show’s episodes. Also in the ’90s, Duffy appeared in two Dallas reunion movies: “J.R. Returns’ in 1996 and 1998’s “War of Wings.” He also co-produced both movies. In 2004, the “Dallas” cast reunited for the non-fiction TV special “Dallas Reunion: Return to Southfork.” Duffy continued to act in the occasional guest starring spot or voice acting appearance, including for the series “Family Guy,” “Justice League,” and “Touched by an Angel.” He also starred in many TV movies including “Falling in Love with the Girl Next Door” and “Desolation Canyon.” Duffy began appearing in the recurring role of Stephen Logan on the soap opera “The Bold and the Beautiful” in 2006. In the spring of 2008, Duffy hosted the interactive game show “Bingo America” on GSN. In 2012, Duffy, along with fellow original cast members of Dallas Linda Gray and Larry Hagman, joined the reboot of the series. Sadly, in November of 2012, Larry Hagman died from complications of cancer. In 2016, Duffy participated in the experimental documentary “Hotel Dallas” by artist duo Ungur & Huang. He played a surreal double of Bobby Ewing in the film, which premiered at the 2016 Berlin International Film Festival. Personal Life: Duffy married professional ballerina Carlyn Rosser in February 1974. They lived in Eagle Point, Oregon with their sons Padraic Terence Duffy (b. 1974) and Conor Frederick Duffy (b. 1979.) They remained married until Carlyn’s death in January 2017. In an April 2020 interview, he disclosed that he still feels very much “married” to his late wife. She had encouraged and helped him convert to Buddhism after his parents’ painful deaths in 1986. The two teenagers, Kenneth Miller and Sean Wentz, who killed Duffy’s parents during an armed robbery, were convicted of murder and sentenced to 75 years in prison. Miller was released on parole in December 2007 and Sean Wentz was granted parole in 2015. Real Estate: For over two decades Patrick and Carlyn owned a home in Tarzana, California. They placed the 1.5-acre property on the market in 1999 for $2 million. They sold the home in 2000 for $1.5 million to Jonathan Davis, the lead singer of the rock band Korn. Davis sold the home in 2004 for a little under $2.1 million. After selling their Tarzana property, the Duffys bought a townhouse in LA’s Pacific Palisades neighborhood to have a SoCal foothold. Outside of California, Patrick spends most of the year on his 600-acre farm/ranch near Medford, Oregon. He bought the property in 1989 soon after accompanying his Dallas co-star Larry Hagman on a fishing trip in the area. Art Collection: One of the primary reasons Patrick and Carlyn moved to the Oregon property was to have more space for their impressive collection of art. Their collection grew to include pieces by John Singer Sargent, Charles Burchfield, Milton Avery, Andrew Wyeth and more. Several of the pieces were worth millions of dollars on their own. He auctioned several of the pieces in May 2018. At that auction, Patrick sold a Milton Avery piece titled “The Seamstress” for $2.75 million.
