Amanda Seyfried Net Worth: ‘Mean Girls’ Star Stirs Equal Pay Controversy After J-Law Salary Scandal, How Much Is ‘Ted 2’ Actress Worth?

At 29 years of age, Amanda Seyfried's net worth is the fruit of more than a decade working in show business, ever since she got her first start in the profession as a teen in the soap operas "As The World Turns" and "All My Children" - but it seems like her success hasn't been enough salary wise.

While she had been modeling and acting from her teens, it wasn't until the 2004 cult high school film "Mean Girls" that Amanda Seyfried's net worth really exploded, as she played the minor but memorable role of the dimwitted friend Karen.

Still, there was a little extra push needed for Seyfried to become a megastar and Amanda Seyfried's net worth to really grow, and that came from the HBO show about a fictional fundamentalist Mormon family, "Big Love," where she played a young woman who's having doubts about her religion.

Later on, she starred in two very successful adaptations of stage musicals (namely "Mamma Mia!" and the film that brought Anne Hathaway the Oscar, "Les Miserables") and a series of other successful films that made Amanda Seyfried's net worth grow further, with starring roles alongside the likes of Justin Timberlake in "In Time" and Megan Fox in "Jennifer's Body."

These days, she's found a new creative person to work with, "Family Guy" creator Seth MacFarlane, and she's starred in his two most recent films: the 2014 film "A Million Ways to Die in the West" and this year's "Ted 2," a sequel to the 2012 movie starring Mark Wahlberg and Mila Kunis.

Amanda Seyfried's net worth became news earlier this week, when the "Lovelace" actress confessed that a few years back she had been paid 10 percent of what her male co-star at the time was, even though they had the same status, raising major questions about equal pay in Hollywood.

Last year, Sony Pictures' leaked e-mails showed a similar situation with Oscar winner Jennifer Lawrence, as it was discovered that she and Amy Adams were paid less than their male counterparts (Bradley Cooper, Christian Bale and Jeremy Renner) in "American Hustle."

Currently, Amanda Seyfried's net worth stands at $10 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth - but it's hard not to wonder what it'd be like if she'd been paid accordingly.
