Congratulations to Beyoncé for making Forbes magazine’s prestigious list of America’s Richest Self-Made Women for the first time. Forbes revealed their rankings on Wednesday, June 3, marking Beyoncé’s entry into this elite group.
The year 2025 was particularly lucrative for Beyoncé, primarily due to her successful 2025 Cowboy Carter tour. This tour generated over $450 million in ticket sales and merchandise, solidifying her financial milestone. Her fans played a crucial role in her reaching this achievement.
Beyoncé shares the 39th spot on the list with several other women. Among female musicians, Taylor Swift ranks the highest at No. 23, with an estimated net worth of $2 billion. Swift’s wealth largely stems from her music, touring activities, and a music catalog valued at approximately $600 million. Additionally, she holds a substantial real estate portfolio worth $110 million.
Another musician on the Forbes list is Rihanna, also at No. 39, with an estimated net worth of $1 billion. Rihanna’s wealth primarily comes from her cosmetics line, Fenty Beauty, and the Savage X Fenty lingerie collection. Unlike others, Rihanna has successfully expanded her brand beyond music, distinguishing her approach to building wealth.
