Julie Chen Net Worth $18 Million

Julie Chen attended University of Southern California, graduating with a degree in broadcast journalism, as well as English in 1991. Chen began working as an intern at a morning television news program “CBS Morning News”. Her job mostly consisted of answering phones and distributing copied faxes. A year later, while Chen was still studying at school, she applied to work at ABC NewsOne, and secured a job as a desk assistant. Chen was then given an opportunity to showcase her skills as a producer, which she did until leaving in 1995, when she went to Ohio to work for WDTN-TV television station as a news anchor. She worked there for two years until 1997. All these positions added steadily to her net worth.

In 1999, Julie Chen returned to “CBS Morning News”, but this time to work as an anchor. Julie Chan’s fame, as well as her net worth began increasing at the time, since she also worked as an anchor for the popular morning show “CBS This Morning”, and a news program “The Early Show” where her co-workers were Jane Clayson, as well as Bryant Gumbel. Chen co-hosted the show for almost eight years, from 2002 until 2010, and even though she left the position, Chen remained an active supporter until the show was cancelled in 2012. During her lengthy time spent on “The Early Show”, Chen worked alongside many famous anchors, including Erica Hill, Harry Smith and Hannah Storm.

An already well-recognized figure, Julie Chen contributed to her rising popularity by appearing as a weekend anchor and reporter for WCBS-TV. Chen’s many appearances on television include an American version of the reality game called “Big Brother”. During the beginnings of “Big Brother”, particularly its first season, Julie Chen was faced with some struggles, and received a lot of criticism from the public for her scripted and stiff communication with the live audience present in the studio. Yet despite the drawbacks, Chen managed to maintain the position of an anchor and accumulate a significant amount of money from this job. “Big Brother” was also one of the reasons Chen met her soon-to-be husband, multi-millionaire Leslie Moonves, who was also a chief executive officer at CBS Television. Even though Moonves was married at the time, Chen and Moonves began dating and in 2004 were married at a private ceremony right after Moonves’ divorce from his previous wife. An anchor, journalist and television personality, Julie Chen is currently working on a TV show called “The Talk” with her co-hosts being Sara Gilbert, Aisha Tyler, Sheryl Underwood and Sharon Osbourne.
