Paulina Gretzky, the queen of versatility

Looking on the other side, Paulina Gretzky reportedly supersedes Spiranac with an estimated net worth of $5 million. Even though she is largely referred to as the wife of Dustin Johnson, the title has a negligible share in her net worth. Born in California, Johnson kicked off her journey in the year 2003 with her singing performance at the 2003 Heritage Classic.

Three years later, in 2006, she released her own single, ‘Collecting Dust.’ However, it isn’t her singing career that put her in limelight. Instead, the daughter of ice hockey legend, Wayne Douglas Gretzky, rose to fame with her modeling career. Known for her looks, Gretzky has been on the cover of Flare, as well as Golf Digest.

In addition to singing and modeling, the Californian celebrity has also been a part of a handful of films like ‘Grown Ups 2’, and ‘Fame’.
