What Is LisaRaye McCoy’s Net Worth
LisaRaye McCoy, an American fashion designer, actress, and businesswoman, has cultivated a diverse career that has contributed to her estimated net worth of $4 million as of 2025. Her financial standing is a result of earnings from acting roles in film and television, entrepreneurial ventures in fashion and hair products, and strategic business decisions over the years.
LisaRaye McCoy’s Career: Film, Television, and Entrepreneurial Ventures
LisaRaye’s journey in the entertainment industry began with smaller roles in low-budget films and music videos, providing a foundation for her future success. Her breakthrough role came in 1998 when she starred as Diamond in Ice Cube’s “The Players Club.” This role was pivotal, earning her critical acclaim and establishing her as a recognizable talent. While exact salary figures from this early role aren’t publicly available, its success opened doors for more significant opportunities.
Following “The Players Club,” LisaRaye secured roles in films like “The Wood” (1999) and “All About the Benjamins” (2002). Precise financial details of her contracts for these roles aren’t publicly disclosed, but these roles steadily increased her visibility and marketability in Hollywood.
LisaRaye’s television career reached a high point with her role as Neesee James in the sitcom “All of Us,” which aired from 2003 to 2007. Although the specific per-episode salary for LisaRaye isn’t public knowledge, starring in a successful network sitcom for four seasons would have provided a consistent and substantial income stream. She would also later reveal in testimony, that she was a millionaire at the time of her marriage to Michael Misick. Following “All of Us,” she starred in the VH1 romantic comedy series “Single Ladies,” which ran from 2011 to 2015. Her continued presence in television further solidified her financial standing.
Beyond acting, LisaRaye has ventured into entrepreneurship. In 2011, she launched “The LisaRaye Collection” in partnership with PZI Jeans, a clothing line designed for curvy women. The financial success of this venture isn’t publicly detailed, but launching a fashion line under her name would have contributed to her overall income. That same summer, she launched her hair line, “LisaRaye Glamour” which is 100% Indian hair and comes in weaves, extensions and wigs. The exact financial details of the income generated by “LisaRaye Glamour” is not publicly accessible. However, launching a hairline, under her name would have further contributed to her overall income.
LisaRaye McCoy’s Marriage to Michael Misick and Financial Implications
LisaRaye’s marriage to Michael Misick, a politician from Turks and Caicos, from 2006 to 2008, had significant implications on her personal life, but limited direct impact on her independently accumulated net worth due to a prenuptial agreement. Misick served as the first Premier of Turks and Caicos from 2006 to 2009. During their marriage, LisaRaye gained visibility as the “First Lady” of Turks and Caicos. In 2020, LisaRaye testified about Misick’s extravagant lifestyle during their relationship. She revealed that he spent millions of dollars during their courting and marriage. Specifically, LisaRaye revealed that she was a millionaire at the time of their marriage and therefore agreed to sign a prenup to protect her own wealth “because I did not know his worth.” She would later learn that, from Mike himself, that he was worth between $108 and $180 million.
During their relationship, LisaRaye reportedly received hundreds of thousands of dollars from the Turks and Caicos Island Tourist Board for marketing services. This included a $300,000 tuition payment for her daughter’s school fees at a boarding school in Switzerland, $1,500 a day for her hairdresser, and $1,000 per day for wardrobe stylist. The couple took yacht cruises and traveled by private jets, including on their honeymoon to Israel and Indonesia. While these benefits enhanced her lifestyle, they didn’t directly contribute to her independently held net worth because of the prenuptial agreement.
Due to the prenup, LisaRaye didn’t receive any of Misick’s wealth upon their divorce. Misick faced allegations of corruption and resigned in December 2008. He was arrested in December 2012 in Brazil, and his trial had not been held as of October 2023. While the marriage and subsequent legal issues were significant personal events, they had limited direct bearing on LisaRaye’s independently established net worth.
