Taylor Swift has officially become the world’s wealthiest female musician, surpassing Rihanna with an estimated net worth of $1.6 billion, as confirmed by Forbes. This financial milestone follows the record-breaking success of Swift’s “Eras Tour” and the continued demand for her music.
With this new figure, Swift now tops the list of richest female artists, edging past Rihanna, who currently has a net worth of $1.4 billion. Additionally, she ranks as the second richest musician globally, trailing only Jay-Z, whose fortune stands at $2.5 billion.
What sets Swift apart from other wealthy musicians is that the majority of her wealth comes from her music career. When she first joined the billionaire club in October 2023, it was noted that she was the only artist to reach a 10-figure net worth through album sales and live performances, rather than business ventures. Just a year later, Forbes estimated that $600 million of her wealth comes from touring and royalties, another $600 million from her music catalog, and $125 million from real estate investments.
Swift has consistently ranked among the wealthiest musicians. Back in 2020, her net worth was reported to be $365 million, meaning she has accumulated about $1.2 billion in the last four years alone.
Although Rihanna once reached a peak net worth of $1.77 billion, making her the richest female musician in history, Swift is poised to claim that title as well. With her “Eras Tour” wrapping up in the U.S. and Canada later this year, Swift’s wealth is expected to continue climbing.
