In October, Taylor Swift<\/strong> technically became a billionaire, and now her newfound status has been cemented with an appearance on Forbes<\/em>‘ 2024\u00a0World’s Billionaires List.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Forbes<\/em> notes that there are currently 2,781 billionaires in the world — 141 more than last year — and they’re richer than ever, worth $14.2 trillion in total. Taylor is a new addition to the list, ranking #2,545 with a net worth of $1.1 billion.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Forbes<\/em> notes<\/strong><\/a> that she’s the only musician on the list to have reached a billion “solely based on her songs and performances.” It estimates that her wealth includes more than $500 million from royalties and touring, and her music catalog is worth another $500 million. Beyond music, she also owns some $125 million in real estate.<\/p>\n

The only other musicians\u00a0on Forbes’<\/em> list this year are\u00a0Jay-Z <\/strong>and Rihanna<\/strong>. Jay ranks <\/strong><\/a>#1,330 with a net worth of $2.5 billion. But much of his fortune comes from his liquor business, which includes champagne and cognac brands, as well as shares in companies like Uber and a fine art collection.<\/p>\n

Rihanna ranks<\/strong><\/a> #2,152 with a net worth of $1.4 billion, thanks to her Fenty Beauty empire and her Savage X Fenty lingerie line.<\/p>\n
