This year, the international star of “Dancing with the Stars” on TF1 is none other than actor Ian Ziering, known for his role in “Beverly Hills, 90210”. Without knowing his fee for the show, we know how much he has in his bank account. You will be surprised!
On January 23, TF1 launched the new season of one of its flagship programs, presented by Camille Combal: Dancing with the stars. And this year, the cast is the star-studded variety. An international star even walks the floor on the arm of Denitsa Ikonomova: the American actor Ian Ziering.
Ian Ziering, not so rich: how much did he earn from Beverly Hills, 90210 ?
At 61, the actor made his name by participating in an extremely popular series in the late 1990s: Beverly Hills, 90210. For more than 300 episodes, he played the character of Steve Scanders in the cult series. And, despite his immense success, the actor who also joined the cast of the DC Comics series, Swamp Thingdoes not have colossal sums in his bank account. And for good reason, his personal fortune is estimated at “only” 2 million dollars by the site specializing in star money, Celebrity Net Worth. A trifle in Hollywood!
It must be said that the salary he received for Beverly Hills, 90210 may seem slightly skinny by Hollywood standards. He would have received the sum of $70,000 per episode, or $420,000 for a full season. Enough to accumulate zeros in the bank except that the actor and father was divorced twice and was forced to pay alimony to his ex-wives. Furthermore, he also had to spend a lot of money to buy a house in Los Angeles, where real estate is extremely expensive.
With a checkered acting career – he alternates with projects as a TV host and even participated in season 4 of Dancing with the Stars as a candidate in the US -, Ian Ziering has not always been well paid for his profession. He ended up agreeing to play in the Z series films: Sharknado ! For the complete saga, he would therefore have received around $500,000.
Ian Ziering at the bedside of the homeless in Los Angeles: “It’s an honor…”
Having lived in Los Angeles for many years, Ian Ziering lives in the City of Angels with his two daughters: Mia Loren and Penna Mae, both born from his union with his ex-wife Erin Ludwig. Very committed to the most deprived, particularly to the homeless who number in the thousands, the actor regularly participates in food distributions. And wants to set this example for his children!
“Homelessness in Los Angeles is one of our nation’s biggest problems. It’s an honor to be here today to help those in need.”he explained to the magazine People in December 2025. Before adding: “I feel very lucky in my life. I believe it is important, not only for me, but also for my children who are also here today, to volunteer to help those who are less fortunate, to instill in them a sense of gratitude, compassion for others, and a sense of community”.
