Rihanna becomes youngest female self-made American billionaire

Rihanna becomes youngest female self-made American billionaire
Jul 6 2022 Share

Rihanna has just made history as she became the youngest female self-made billionaire in America, beating even Kim Kardashian. 

With a net worth of $1.4 billion and being the top-selling digital artist of all time, selling 215 million digital tracks and 60 million albums, her musical wealth is relatively miniscule. 

The majority of her fortune comes from a well of business interests, primary of which is cosmetics line, Fenty Beauty. The 34-year-old has a 30% stake in the Savage X Fenty lingerie line, which was valued at $1bn in February 2021. 

But that’s not all – she has an impressive property portfolio, with a Beverly Hills mansion priced at a whopping $13.75m, a $10m neighbouring pad and Hollywood Hills rental property. 

According to calculations conducted by Forbes, the pop icon is thought to be Barbados’ first billionaire after becoming the world’s richest female musician. She is the 21st richest self-made billionaire in the US, with Kardashian and Oprah Winfrey ahead of her.

However, at 41 years old, Rihanna is the youngest on the list. Other people on the list include Kylie Jenner, Taylor Swift, Madonna, Beyonce and Serena Williams. Speaking about this, she said she understood why it would inspire people. 

 “It made sense when I realised that it was inspiring to people, that they felt like this is something that they could achieve knowing where I’ve come from. Knowing my humble beginnings, they see the possibility, and it gives them hope. That made me feel really happy.”
