Suspected of Earning $700,000,000 From 'Beats,' LeBron James Partners with Savannah James and Erling Haaland For Son Bryce's 'Acting Debut'

LA Lakers superstar LeBron James is known to have made a whopping $700,000,000 via his deal with the Beats by Dre brand. James, apart from being an endorsee, also invested around $30,000,000 which apparently made him a hefty profit. Now, LeBron’s younger son Bryce was seen acting in an advertisement for the company, alongside his brother Bronny, who also signed a deal with Beats.

Bryce’s acting debut came alongside his father, brother, and mother Savannah James. The four were all part of the advertisement which also featured Erling Haaland’s father, former PL footballer Alf-Inge Haaland. Bryce James shared the advertisement on his Instagram, claiming that it was his acting debut.

LeBron James made $700,000,000 from investments in Beats

Back in 2020, James’ former teammate Kendrick Perkins had claimed that he had made the $700,000,000 amount via his investment in Beats. While the numbers sound astounding, James’ business savvy means that he has made a range of profitable investments off the court.

Regardless, his association with Beats appears to have become a bit of a family matter. The latest advertisement saw three of LeBron’s family members also feature. 

Along with his wife Savannah, the likes of Bryce and Bronny were both part of the clip, which Bryce also shared on his Instagram. The ad also represented a message that Savannah conveyed to LeBron. 

She spoke about how people continue to doubt his ability to deliver even 21 years after making his NBA debut. She also claimed that she wants to see her husband play with both Bryce and Bronny before he retires.

LeBron, who is still going strong as a player, shared the screen with none other than Erling Haaland, who recently won the treble with his club and is seen as a favorite for the upcoming Ballon d’Or award.

LeBron James made $30,000,000 from Beats back in 2014

James has been associated with Beats for a long time. He initially became a promoter back in 2008, when the brand was launched.

LeBron also received shares as part of the deal which saw him make a huge profit via Apple’s acquisition of the company in 2014. Apple had purchased Beats for $3,000,000,000 which saw LeBron making $30,000,000 from the investment, according to Bleacher Report.

James, over the years, has made multiple smaller investments in the company which has only grown consistently. That has led to some interesting financial benefits in recent years.
