SHOCKING NEWS: Taylor Swift continues to break records, this time stealing Rihanna’s crown as the richest female singer just a year after becoming a billionaire!
The “Fortnight” musician is no stranger to making waves for her music, with several awards in her name. However, her songs are far more successful than people think, earning her a 10-figure net worth.
Taylor Swift recently surpassed Rihanna as the youngest self-made female billionaire. Unlike the latter, the leading figure in music earned her impressive record solely based on her music and performances instead of other business ventures.
According to new reports, Swift has put significant distance between herself and other female singers like Rihanna, thanks to her new net worth. She became the world’s wealthiest female musician with an estimated $1.6 billion fortune.
The singer is also the youngest female billionaire in the self-made category, but on a global scale, her net worth placed her at #2118 among the world’s wealthiest men and women. However, this does not overshadow her incredible feat as a musician.
Swift is reportedly the first singer to make the billionaire ranking primarily based on her songs and performances. She joined the 10-figure list in October 2023, thanks to the profits from her Eras tour and music catalog.
According to Forbes, the 34-year-old’s fortune includes nearly $600 million earned from royalties and touring. Swift’s music catalog is reportedly worth an additional $600 million, while she amassed $125 million in real estate.
