A total of $50 million dollars has been estimated to be the net worth of Criss Angel, an American illusionist, magician, and musician.
“Criss Angel Believe,” a stage performance at the Luxor casino in Las Vegas that ran from 2008 to 2016, was created in collaboration with Cirque du Soleil, and sold more than $5 million in advance tickets.
He is also the author of the 2007 book “Mindfreak: Secret Revelations,” and he was the lead vocalist of the rock band Angeldust, who issued four studio albums during his tenure.
Criss Angel’s real name is Christopher Nicholas Sarantakos, and he was born on December 19, 1967, in Hempstead, New York, the son of Greek immigrants.
Despite the fact that his parents wanted him to go to college, Criss chose to pursue a career in magic after graduating from East Meadow High School and began touring with other magicians following graduation.
Criss made his television debut in a 1994 ABC special titled “Secrets,” and the following year, horror writer/director Clive Barker cast him in the film “Lord of Illusions,” which was released the following year.
Criss was a judge on the NBC reality show “Phenomenon” with Uri Geller in 2007, and he also appeared at the MTV Video Music Awards during Britney Spears’ performance.
As of 2006, he was divorced from his first wife, JoAnn Winkhart.
As of 2016, the Johnny Crisstopher Children’s Charitable Foundation was renamed to “promote awareness of childhood cancer and offer funds for research, treatment, and – ideally – a cure” by Criss, the founder of the nonprofit organisation Believe Anything Is Possible.
Five times, from 2001 through 2008, the International Magician Society named Angel Magician of the Year, and in 2009 he was elected Magician of the Decade.
In less than a second, he performed the “Metamorphosis” illusion and escaped from a straight-jacket, all world records that Angel has set.
