Taylor Swift Become Richest Female Musician with Net Worth of $1.6 Billion….read more

Taylor Swift has surpassed Rhianna to become the world’s richest female musician, with a net worth estimated to be a whopping $1.6 billion.

Swift’s ascent was confirmed on Saturday, October 5th, with Forbes updating her net worth to reflect her growing fortune in the wake of the historic “Eras Tour” and the continued popularity of her catalog.

Now, she’s not only topping the list of richest female musicians — surpassing Rhianna’s $1.4 billion net worth — but is ranked No. 2 on the list of richest musicians, period.

Only Jay-Z is valued more, with a $2.5 billion net worth.

But as was pointed out when Swift first became a billionaire in October 2023, she is the only musician in history to earn a 10-digit net worth primarily from her recordings and live performances (as opposed to other business ventures).

A year after she reached that milestone, Forbes now estimates that her assets include $600 million from royalties and touring, another $600 million from the value of her catalog, and $125 million from real estate.

Swift’s name has been a fixture of “wealthiest musician” lists for some time, but her growth in recent years has been impressive.

In 2020, she was valued at $365 million, meaning she’s brought in somewhere north of $1.2 billion in the past four years alone.

Despite all this, Rhianna does get to keep the title of “Richest Female Musician of All Time,” since her net worth once had a peak evaluation of $1.77 billion.

However, Swift might claim that title too after she closes her “Eras Tour” later this year with its final dates in the US and Canada (get tickets).

Swift recently endorsed Kamala Harris for president much to chagrin of Donald Trump, who predicted the singer would “pay a price” as a result.

It appears we can add this to the long list of Trump’s predictions that turned out to be woefully inaccurate.
