Beyoncé becomes the fifth singer to join the millionaires club

There are many ways to describe Beyoncée: pop star, cultural icon, secret celebrity — and, now, millionaire.

The singer has aadd enough zeros in his price to reach the position of millionaire, according to Forbes.

It is a work done by few musicians. Forbes lists five in total, including Bruce Springsteen, Taylor Swift, Rihanand, Beyoncé and none other than her husband, Jay-Z (although estimates from other publications place several others, including Paul McCartney again Selena Gomezsection).

While some music billionaires have a successful business loaning their wealth, Forbes says Beyoncéa critical music catalog and top-grossing tours that pushed him into the 10-figure zone.

His Cowboy Carter Tour – a 32-stop show that spanned the US and Europe, featured over 350 members and lavish amenities such as a golden horse and a flying car – generated more than $400 million US in ticket sales alone, according to estimates from Pollstar, and another $50 million from merchandise, according to Forbes’ own estimates.

Those stats, like the stats reported on Billboard Boxscore, made it so the highest-grossing country music tour of all timeas the pop singer turns to the genre for her latest album.

Because Queen Bey is going solo with Parkwood Entertainment — the company she started in 2010, which handles almost all of her work, including her music and documentaries — that means her company will reap more profits, according to Forbes.

The magazine estimates the star will earn $148 million before US taxes by 2025.

Product partnerships, such as one this year with Leviand concmovies and broadcast to work and add to his wealth, says Forbes.

Hsome modern ones fit the billthe lion’s share of recent years in terms of jobs. Rihanna became a millionaire in 2021 mespecially behind her beauty line, Fenty Beauty, and her underwear line, Savage x Fenty.

Taylor Swift music and tour pushed him over the line in 2023again Springsteen, who sold his track-filled music catalog for an honest day’s work for nearly half a billion by 2021, became a millionaire last year.
