Barbra Streisand – $32K, Ford Explorer

Having recently failed three attempts at her driving test, one would assume A Star is Born’s Barbra Streisand doesn’t own a vehicle herself. When she hopped into a Range Rover alongside James Corden in an installment of Carpool Karaoke, the Brooklyn native dropped a huge bombshell on camera.

Calmly commandeering the vehicle as the two cruised around California, Streisand revealed that she was in fact an unreliable driver who had failed her driving test on numerous occasions. The Funny Girl actress has been spotted driving a black Ford Explorer on multiple instances, though. Streisand recently unveiled her I’d Want It to Be You duet with Willie Nelson.

William Shatner – $77.3K, 2002 Aston Martin DB7 Volante

After his breakout success as Captain James T. Kirk in the Star Trek franchise, actor William Shatner splurged his new money on toys that he always wanted. One such purchase turned out to be a 2002 Aston Martin DB7 Volante.

With a price premium of almost $23K above the base model, the range-topping Volante came with upgraded trim and a retractable soft-top. In April 2016, Shatner sold his Aston at the Palm Beach Barrett-Jackson Auction for $55K. He recently appeared opposite Mike Tyson in a commercial for CopperGel, a medical and wellness company intended to provide pain relief.

Rowan Atkinson – $11M, McLaren F1

British actor Rowan Atkinson is adored by television and film audiences for his unforgettably hilarious roles like Mr. Bean and Johnny English. Thanks to his astronomical success in showbiz, Atkinson is believed to be worth an impressive $150M.

With his deep pockets, it came as no surprise when the comedian bought an ultra-rare McLaren F1. Designed by legendary Formula 1 designer Gordon Murray, the F1 was the fastest production supercar of its time. After crashing it twice, Atkinson sold the F1 in 2015 for a cool $11M. He recently starred in the mini-series Man vs. Bee and reprised his iconic Mr. Bean character in Handy Bean.

Jamie Lee Curtis – $33.4K, Honda FCX Clarity

When Honda started a production run of the FCX Clarity, it was a revolutionary moment. The move signaled a step away from traditional diesel and gas-powered vehicles in favor of more environmentally friendly and renewable power sources. Equipped with a 100KW powerplant, the electric vehicle was powered by a hydrogen fuel cell.

When Jamie Lee Curtis got delivery of her FCX Clarity, the True Lies actress was one of the first people to adopt the electric vehicle trend, followed by celebrities like Ron Yerxa, Laura Harris, and Jon Spallino. Curtis recently joined the cast of Lionsgate’s Borderlands as Dr. Tannis, alongside fellow co-stars Cate Blanchett and Kevin Hart.

Diane Keaton – $100K, Mercedes-Benz G550

When we think about American actress and filmmaker, Diane Keaton, rugged and tough are not two words that immediately spring to mind. When it comes to her everyday vehicle, however, the Annie Hall actress went with a rugged and durable Mercedes-Benz G-Class wagon.

With a twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 engine producing 416hp, this is one beast of a truck. Keaton is regularly spotted cruising around the streets of Hollywood in her $100K SUV, at times sporting her signature top hat. According to multiple reports, Keaton’s daughter, Dexter, got married last week to fiancé Jordan White in a super-secret ceremony in Laguna Beach, California.

O.J. Simpson – $200K, Convertible Bentley Continental

Infamous football player and actor O.J. Simpson has been the subject of controversy following the gruesome murders of his late wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ron Goldman in 1994. The former NFL running back was released on parole in October 2017 after serving nine years in prison for armed robbery.

Following his release, Simpson has been actively getting his life back on track, settling in a Las Vegas neighborhood and being a regular at the downtown bars and golf courses, although his parole prohibits Simpson from drinking excessively. As for his ride, The Juice prefers to travel in style in a $200K convertible Bentley.

Warren Beatty – $128K, BMW Z8

Hollywood actor and director Warren Beatty is known to shy away from the camera when he’s not working. Apart from being a part of many successful films as an actor and filmmaker, Beatty is also famous for wooing many beautiful ladies during his heyday.

Nicknamed the Prince of Hollywood, Beatty has garnered fame for his roles in Reds, Bonnie, and Clyde, and Heaven Can Wait. In 2016, he directed and starred in his last film, Rules Don’t Apply. Despite being in his mid-80s, Beatty drives around in an expensive supercar you would normally attribute to a much younger enthusiast—a blacked-out BMW Z8.

John Goodman – $23K, 2000 Ford F-150

Some things in life just seem natural and meant to be. In the case of The Big Lebowski actor John Goodman, his Ford F-150 fits like a glove. Known for his humble and down-to-earth persona, it was only fitting that Goodman went with an understated truck as his choice of ride.

He is best known for his role as Dan Conner in ABC’s Roseanne, as well as his deep baritone voice and on-screen authoritative-figure roles. After its success, the network created the sitcom’s spinoff The Conners, with Goodman reprising his role as Dan. The series was recently picked up for its fourth season.

Having 26 Billboard no.1 hit singles to his name, most of which were either written or co-written by him, Jackson is in the company of musical elites like Sir Paul McCartney and John Lennon. His impressive collection of classic vehicles includes a stunning cherry-red 1962 Corvette. Jackson is set to perform alongside other musicians at PBS’s upcoming television special, A Capitol Fourth.

Olivia Newton-John – $18-40K, Mercedes-Benz M-Class SUV

Olivia Newton-John got her first taste of fame during the ’70s as a pop singer. Her success as a musician paved the way for on-screen work as Sandy in the 1978 hit musical Grease, which is perhaps Newton-John’s most popular work.

In the above photographs, Newton-John can be seen entering a Mercedes-Benz S-Class and an M-Class SUV. According to sources, Newton-John didn’t actually own them. The vehicles were sent by the German manufacturer to escort her to performance venues during her Sri Lanka tour. She recently partnered with Primary Wave Publishing to help take her music to new heights and demographics.
