Kanye West literally wrote the song about gold diggers, probably thanks to one-time girlfriend Amber Rose (a former stripper married to Wiz Khalifa).

Or maybe he wrote it with now-wife and baby mama Kim Kardashian in mind. 

Or maybe he just spent a lot of time observing the comings and goings of other notorious celebrity gold diggers. Regardless, here’s a tribute to them!

Gold diggers come in all shapes, sizes and genders. Some of the ones on our list come to mind more quickly than others, but all are mining it hard.

In the time-honored, profound and compelling words of Alicia Keys, some people live for the fortune and some people live for the fame.

And in the words of ‘Ye, “if you ain’t no chump, holler WE WANT PRENUP!”

Truly, a mantra to live your life if ever there were one right there.
