The average American spends over $1,000 yearly on lottery games and scratch cards. But did you know that the famous also participate?<\/p>\n

Perhaps they have tired of celebrity status and lost their zest to collect millions of dollars in royalties! So, they decide to trust chance, fate and the game. Indeed, something is exciting, appealing and compelling about lottery and games, and having plenty of money available doesn\u2019t turn you off trying your luck.<\/p>\n

How many of your favourite celebrities buy lottery tickets?<\/p>\n

If you want to get rich through the lottery, read on for inspiration from people you have probably heard of.<\/p>\n

\"\"Madonna<\/strong><\/p>\n

Madonna, the Queen of Pop, is a lottery winner. She is fond of playing SuperEnalotto regularly to commemorate her Italian ancestry.<\/p>\n

She has received her fair share of lottery wins, too; \u20ac120,000 on a European tour in 2012 and another US$250,000 when she bought 100 lottery tickets. She donated that prize to charity.<\/p>\n

Chris Singleton<\/strong><\/p>\n

This NBA athlete invested heavily in Mega Millions lottery tickets valued at US$10,000. He reportedly said he would spend the money on lottery tickets or \u201cblow it in a club.\u201d We now know which option he picked.<\/p>\n

50 Cent<\/strong><\/p>\n

Thanks to a succession of smash albums, the Jamaican-born rapper who soared to global fame in the early 2000s had to declare bankruptcy in 2015.<\/p>\n

Just months after declaring bankruptcy, he came close to winning the Powerball jackpot. He was lucky to have chosen three of the five winning numbers, only a few numbers away from having the winning ticket for the $900 million jackpot.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"
\nHugh Jackman<\/strong><\/p>\n

Another star who likes playing the lottery is Hugh Jackman. The Australian actor is well-known for appearing in X-Men, Les Miserables, and The Greatest Showman. He is also famous for spending a lot of money on lottery tickets.<\/p>\n

The most noteworthy incident occurred in 2011 when Jackman purchased tickets for the entire cast of the film Real Steel. What an incredible gesture! The movie star did not win, but there were rumours that someone on the staff did.<\/p>\n

Chrissy Teigen<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Chrissy Teigen, John Legend\u2019s wife, purchased her first lottery ticket as the Mega Millions jackpot reached a record-breaking $656 million. We guess everybody has their price.<\/p>\n

Wayne Rooney<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney is a big fan of the lottery. Despite having millions in the bank, he enjoys playing the lottery and dreams of winning a multi-million jackpot. According to reports, Rooney does not buy tickets himself, but has his friends do it for him.<\/p>\n

\"\"Woody Allen<\/strong><\/p>\n

In August of this year, it was revealed that famed film director Woody Allen is an avid lottery player. Allen told the Guardian that he spends $100 weekly on lottery tickets but that winning the jackpot would not be life-changing.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve discussed this with my wife. We\u2019d still live in the same house, I\u2019d keep working, I don\u2019t want a boat, and I don\u2019t wish to have an aircraft. I\u2019m not one of those who naturally have an aversion to riches. I enjoy looking at wealthy folks. I like going on a tour of an affluent estate.\u201d<\/p>\n

Of course, the elephant in the room is that he\u2019s already pretty rich. According to recent estimates, his net worth is $65 million!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"
\nDan Bilzerian<\/strong><\/p>\n

Do you remember the man with the Instagram account? With all the ladies, guns, and a beard? Who is this man with the money?<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve all heard of Dan Bilzerian, the millionaire and poker prodigy. We all know this guy enjoys gambling, but did you know he\u2019s a big lottery fan? Bilzerian spent $100,000 on tickets for this January\u2019s world record-breaking billion-dollar Powerball jackpot. We\u2019re relieved to report that he did not win!<\/p>\n

Liz Hurley<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Another celebrity lottery player with good intentions is Liz Hurley, who purchased 500 lottery tickets in 2010, intending to give any prizes to victims of the tragic Haiti earthquake<\/a> that year. George Clooney also purchased lottery tickets to help the exact same cause.<\/p>\n

Paris Hilton<\/strong><\/p>\n

The hotel heiress and star Paris Hilton allegedly purchased 1,500 tickets for an Italian SuperEnalotto lottery draw in 2008. When questioned about the purchase, she was keen to point out that she would donate 10% of her money to charitable organisations if she won. However, there is no proof of whether she continues to routinely play lotteries.<\/p>\n

Simon Cowell<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cI still buy lottery tickets,\u201d the X Factor judge told reporters. \u201cI\u2019m still playing.\u201d He also said he would do so anonymously if he won the jackpot. With a net worth of more than $550 million, Cowell would have to win one of the most significant lottery prizes ever to double his nest egg.<\/p>\n

Play the lottery and win<\/strong><\/p>\n

As you can see, celebrities do not deny themselves the joy of playing the lottery. On the contrary, stars who play the lottery enjoy the thrill and taste of triumph. Some play for their emotions, while others play to win.<\/p>\n
