It’s strange, but I was kind of shocked yesterday (or was it the day before?) when I finally realized, more than two decades after she became famous on Seinfeld, that Julia Louis-Dreyfus is really, really loaded. She’s the daughter of billionaire Gerard Louis-Dreyfus, chairman of the Louis Dreyfus Energy Services. Forbes says her family is worth about $3.4 billion. Some superstars are worth $150 million or $200 million (i.e., Brad Pitt, etc.) but there’s something about the word “billion” that has a huge impact of some kind. I don’t think I’ll ever be able to watch her again in quite the same way.
