This Is How Much Catherine O'Hara Is Really Worth

Canadian actor Catherine O' Hara is one of the funniest stars on the big and small screens. Currently, she is best known for her role as the Givenchy-wearing, over-the-top Moira Rose on Schitt's Creek, but she has been a constant fixture on the comedy scene since the late 1970s. Also known for her performances in Home Alone, After Hours, and Beetlejuice, O'Hara has amassed a fortune — and that is nothing to laugh about.

The Emmy-winning actor previously became a household name in Canada for her stint in the sketch comedy series Second City Television, where she first acted alongside Schitt's Creek co-creator and co-star Eugene Levy. O'Hara credits the show for igniting something in her, recalling in a 2008 Playback interview, "Once I saw the Second City show I thought, 'Oh my Lord, that is what I want to do! This is what I am meant to do. Please let me in.'" In that same interview, the star also mentioned that she didn't like working on television and avoided sitcoms: "I have shied away from TV because of its long-term commitment ... especially the sitcoms I have been offered." At the time, O'Hara prioritized raising her sons, but it seems as if she finally found a tailor-made TV role as Moira Rose in the hilarious multi-award-winning Schitt's Creek.
