Natalie Portman and Benjamin Millepied

For this list, we're including professional dancers and choreographers as athletes. Much like the sports stars on our list, professional dancers undergo extensive training and demonstrate exceptional physical skills. Take, for instance, French dancer Benjamin Millepied, who became a member of the New York City Ballet in 1995.

That's many years of dedication and hard work on his toes! Benjamin Millepied may be more widely recognized as the husband of the celebrated actress Natalie Portman. He possesses a respectable net worth of $10 million, but she takes the lead with a net worth of $90 million.
