Forbes magazine said on Monday that American singer Beyoncé has become a billionaire, making her the fifth musician to do so.
According to the journal, which is renowned for its rankings of the richest people in the world, the 44-year-old artist enters an exclusive group that also includes her husband, rapper Jay-Z, Taylor Swift, Bruce Springsteen, and Rihanna.
According to AFP, Beyonce achieved the milestone following a number of extremely successful years.
Her Renaissance World Tour brought in around $600 million in 2023.
The Grammy-winning country album “Cowboy Carter” in 2024 marked a change in her musical persona, and in 2025 she embarked on the highest-grossing tour in history.
Forbes calculated that Beyoncé earned $148 million before taxes in 2025, making her the third highest-paid musician in the world, when she added revenue from her song archive and other contracts.
The former member of Destiny’s Child, who established Parkwood Entertainment to oversee her career and productions, did not provide a more precise estimate of her personal worth in the article.
According to Forbes, Beyonce’s personal income primarily comes from her music, international tours, and ownership of the rights to her back catalog, even though she has grown her commercial empire with endeavors including a clothing line, a whiskey label, and a hair care company.
