The Most Expensive Artworks That Celebrities Own
Cheech Marin – Chicano Art ($9.7 Million)
Best known for being half of the comedy act “Cheech & Chong,” the American comedian Cheech Marin launched a new brand of nationwide meals for marijuana lovers in 2022. A bonafide stoner icon, Cheech is also the owner of one of the world’s most impressive private collections of Chicano art (i.e., art created by Mexican-American artists).
His collection includes artworks by painters such as Carlos Almaraz, Gronk, and Gilbert Lujan. And while the value of Cheech’s acquisitions was never made public, his Chicano art museum—The Cheech Marin Center for Chicano Art—was once given an impressive $9.7 million by the state of California!
