What is Faune Chambers' net worth?

Faune Chambers is an American actress and dancer who has a net worth of $2 million. That is a combined net worth with her husband, since 2010, Derek Watkins, better known as Fonzworth Bentley.

Faune Chambers is best known for her work in music videos, film, and television during the late 1990s and 2000s. With a dynamic background in dance and an elegant on-screen presence, Chambers built a career that seamlessly blended pop culture, choreography, and performance. She appeared in numerous iconic music videos and supporting roles in major films, earning a reputation as one of the go-to dancers of her generation before branching into acting.

Early Life and Dance Career

Faune Alecia Chambers was born on September 23, 1976, in Miami, Florida, and raised in Virginia. She studied dance from a young age and eventually attended Spelman College in Atlanta, Georgia. Her talent and training led her to Los Angeles, where she quickly broke into the entertainment industry as a professional dancer.

Her big break came in the music video world. Chambers appeared in several legendary videos during the late '90s and early 2000s, including Janet Jackson's "Doesn't Really Matter," Jennifer Lopez's "Feelin' So Good," Destiny's Child's "Say My Name," and Ne-Yo's "Mad." Most famously, she danced opposite Michael Jackson in the "Ghosts" short film, a 40-minute horror-themed video co-written by Stephen King and directed by Stan Winston.
