Rihanna is the richest self-made female musician, according to a new Forbes list published on Thursday (June 1).
The “B**ch Better Have My Money” singer was named No. 20 on the new list, which included game changers in cosmetics, technology, music, and more. Beyoncé, Taylor Swift, and Kim Kardashian were all ranked lower than the multiplatinum musician. Rihanna’s fortune has grown significantly as a result of her clever manoeuvres with Fenty.
Rihanna was placed 14 places higher than the next richest female musician. Taylor Swift is ranked 34th on Forbes’ list, with a net worth of $740 million. Madonna and Beyoncé were placed 45th and 48th, respectively. The “Pon De Replay” singer is on a roll, with her popular cosmetic and clothing company conquering the world by storm.

Rihanna and her family have been the subject of much speculation in recent months. Whether it’s at the Super Bowl or the Oscars, the music superstar never fails to make headlines. She and A$AP Rocky recently celebrated their 1-year-old son, RZA, with a Wu-Tang-themed birthday party.
At 34, the multitalented artist was named the youngest billionaire in Forbes history last year. She ascended to the coveted position following a revision that revealed Kylie Jenner was not, in fact, the youngest billionaire.
Although Rihanna’s fans are eagerly awaiting her new album, she keeps them entertained in other ways. She recently spoke to British Vogue about her newfound motherhood. “You literally try to remember it — and there are photos of my life before,” she insisted, “but the feeling, the desires, the things you enjoy, everything, you just don’t identify with it because you don’t even allow yourself mentally to get that far because it doesn’t matter.”
