Queen Bey Reigns Supreme: Beyoncé Joins the Billionaire Club!
In news that will surprise absolutely no one, global superstar Beyoncé has officially joined the ranks of the world’s billionaires, according to Forbes. The Grammy-winning artist now holds the impressive title of the fifth musician to achieve this incredible wealth milestone, proving that “it should cost a billion to look this good” is more than just a lyric – it’s a lifestyle!
She’s in good company too, alongside her husband, Jay-Z, who blazed the trail as the first musical artist to hit billionaire status back in 2019. The exclusive club also boasts the likes of Rihanna, Bruce Springsteen, and the one and only Taylor Swift. Talk about a supergroup of financial titans!
Beyoncé’s journey to billionaire status has been paved with hits and sold-out shows. Her recent “Cowboy Carter Tour” raked in over $400 million in ticket sales, according to Pollstar, a testament to her enduring power as a live performer. And who could forget the massively successful “Renaissance World Tour,” which she brilliantly transformed into a cinematic experience for fans across the U.S. in 2023?
But it’s not just about the music, though her record-breaking Grammy wins and nominations certainly speak for themselves. Forbes points out that Beyoncé’s shrewd business acumen has played a significant role in amassing her fortune.
In 2010, she founded Parkwood Entertainment, a production company that has been instrumental in shaping her creative empire. Last year, she made a splash in the beauty world with the launch of Cécred, her very own hair care brand.
And just this year, she debuted SirDavis, a whiskey brand developed in partnership with luxury giant Moët Hennessy.
Let’s not forget her multi-year collaboration with Adidas for her popular clothing line, Ivy Park, which she first launched in 2016. It seems everything Beyoncé touches truly turns to gold!
As of 2025, Forbes reports there are over 3,000 billionaires globally, and our very own Beyoncé Knowles-Carter is now officially one of them. Bow down, peasants, Queen Bey has arrived!
