The Net Worth of Alexis Knapp

How rich is Alexis Knapp? As of early-2019, sources estimate a net worth that is at $5 million, earned largely through a successful career in acting. She’s also done several television projects, and appeared in other films. As she continues her endeavors, it is expected that her wealth will also continue to increase.

Early Life and Career Beginnings

While Alexis was born in Avonmore, her family later moved to the Outer Banks of North Carolina where she would grow up and was educated, though little is known about the schools she attended. When she turned 18 years of age, she moved away from home, going to Los Angeles to pursue a career in the entertainment industry.

After moving to the city, she began her career online, hosting an internet video series entitled “Project Lore”, which focused on the video game “World of Warcraft”. The massively multi-player on-line role-playing game (MMORPG) is set in the “Warcraft” fantasy universe, and begins four years after the conclusion of “Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne”, and was the world’s most popular MMORPG during its peak. She also took modeling jobs while looking for a breakthrough in acting; she had a support role in the film “Couples Retreat”, and landed a similar role in “Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief”, as an Aphrodite Girl.

Rise to Fame

In 2012, Knapp gained her first major role in the film “Project X” as the character Alexis. The film follows three friends as they plan to gain popularity by throwing a party, only to find things quickly getting out of control. The film is presented in a found footage home video style and was commercially successful, although the lead character’s behavior was criticized, along with the film’s disregard for the effects of drug use. However, many others perceived the film as thrilling though a string of large scale party incidents occurred after the film’s release led to blame, as these incidents were said to be inspired by the film.

During the same year, she gained her most notable role, playing the sex-crazed Barden Bella named Stacie Conrad in “Pitch Perfect”, a comedy film starring her alongside Anna Kendrick, Skylar Astin, Rebel Wilson and many more. The film follows the story of the Barden University’s all-girl a cappella group called The Barden Bellas, as they compete against others to help them win Nationals. The film is loosely based on the non-fiction book “Pitch Perfect: The Quest for Collegiate a Cappella Glory”.

Recent Projects

After that success, Alexis appeared in the series “Super Fun Night” alongside “Pitch Perfect” co-star Rebel Wilson, however, the sitcom was short lived, and was cancelled after one season. She then starred in the film “So Undercover” as Taylor Jaffe, starring Miley Cyrus but was only released theatrically in 13 countries, not including the US where it was released direct-to-video. In 2013, she gained a role in the sitcom entitled “Ground Floor”, which follows a banker who falls in love with a maintenance supervisor working in the same building.

The Barden Bellas this time have to compete in a world singing championship, and the film gained positive reviews and surpassed the commercial success of the original film, making it the highest grossing music comedy film of all time, surpassing “School of Rock”. In 2017 she starred in the final film of the series, entitled “Pitch Perfect 3”, which features the Bellas reuniting for one last performance. The film received mixed reviews, and trailed behind its predecessors in terms of financial success.

1If it's time to party, it's time for hip hop. I love Aubrey Graham (aka Drake), Jay Z, Kanye West. If I'm chilling at home though, I'm listening to Massive Attack, Thievery Corporation, Radiohead, DJ Shadow. I also listen to a lot of classical.
