Rihanna has blossomed into the richest singer in the world. A large part of her billion-dollar fortune should not come from her music.

At the age of only 33, world star Rihanna has reached another significant milestone in her career. Like the US “Forbes” magazine reports, the musician, born in 1988 as Robyn Rihanna Fenty in Barbados, is now officially a billionaire. In fact, her fortune is even said to amount to 1.7 billion US dollars (around 1.44 billion euros) – making Rihanna the wealthiest musician in the world.

According to the report, she only has to admit defeat to another woman in the overall ranking in the entertainment sector: With an estimated 2.7 billion US dollars (around 2.44 billion euros), talk legend Oprah Winfrey (67) is even more comfortable in this regard Leadership in first place.

The music only plays second fiddle

What is interesting here is that, according to Forbes, Rihanna’s fortune is largely not made up of her income from music. Instead, the majority come from her in-house fashion company, Fenty Beauty, of which she owns 50 percent. It has brought in another 270 million dollars to date through the underwear label Savage x Fenty, it continues to say.
