A few days ago, the American “Forbes” published this year’s plebiscite honoring the richest women in America who made a fortune on their own, we can also find people from the world of music. Unfortunately, although the salaries of stars are often discussed, they are not high enough to be placed on the podium. The magazine’s list is opened by 76-year-old Diane Hendricks, the owner of a chain of stores in the construction industry, whose fortune is valued at USD 15 billion.
Which of the American singers has the most substantial wealth?
Of all the singers included in the list, the first one is Rihanna who ranked 20th, leaving the other singers far behind. This should not be surprising, because the artist has been successively focusing on developing her cosmetics brand Fenty Beauty for several years, which brings her huge profits. Rihanna has a net worth estimated at $1.4 billion.
The next singer who managed to catch in the “Forbes” list is Taylor Swift, who was ranked 34th with an estimated net worth of $740 million. It is worth noting that the artist’s current concert tour “The Eras Tour” broke the sales record in the United States, but her fortune is almost exactly half that of Rihanna’s.
The top 50 also includes the queen of pop Madonna and “Queen B”, i.e. Beyonce. The 64-year-old boasts a net worth of $580 million, ranking her 45th on the list. Meanwhile, 41-year-old Beyonce ranked three places lower with a net worth of $540 million.
Three other singers were outside the strict fifty. They are Celine Dion, 55, Dolly Parton, 77, and Barbra Streisand, 81. The Canadian was ranked 56th with a net worth of $480 million. And godmother Miley Cyrus ranked 59th with a net worth of $440 million. The creator of the hit “Woman in Love” was two places lower. Streisand’s net worth is not much less than that of country music icons, totaling $430 million.
