Rihanna has recently entered the ranks of the ultra-wealthy, joining Kanye West and Jay-Z who are already members of Forbes' billionaire club.
According to the publication, the mom-to-be will become Barbados' first-ever billionaire when she officially joins the club in August 2021, owing to her cosmetics empire Fenty Beauty and lingerie brand Savage x Fenty, which she launched in 2015. According to reports, she ranked 1,729 on the yearly list, making her the richest female artist in the world.
Who is the wealthiest of the three, now that the "Diamonds" singer has joined Kanye West and Jay-Z on the list of richest people on the planet?
Jay-Z Net Worth 2022
According to Forbes, Jay-Z has a net worth of $1.3 billion, which he acquired from his Armand de Brignac champagne and D'Ussé cognac businesses.
He has become the first hip-hop artist to become a billionaire in 2019 as a result of his well-diversified enterprise.
His holdings encompass anything from the entertainment organization Roc Nation to his fine art collection, which includes pieces by Jean-Michel Basquiat and other contemporary artists.
Rihanna Net Worth 2022
Rihanna reportedly has a net worth of $1.7 billion, according to Forbes.
Her cosmetics company, which she co-owns with the French luxury firm LVMH, is expected to produce $550 million in sales in 2020, according to reports from Forbes.
Her investment in the beauty firm is said to account for the majority of her recent wealth.
Additionally, she has a 30 percent share in her lingerie business, which was allegedly valued at $1 billion when it was raised money last year, according to reports.
However, Rihanna's entrepreneurial side is not without its challenges, since her high-fashion clothing brand with LVMH, Fenty, did not do well and was forced to close its doors in February 2021.
Rihanna surpassed Oprah Winfrey to become the second wealthiest female figure in the entertainment sector, only behind her.
Kanye West Net Worth 2022
Kanye West, on the other hand, is the wealthiest of the three music superstars.
Kanye West is an entrepreneur and musician who is estimated to have a net worth of $2 billion. All of this is possible because of his multi-year agreement with Adidas for his Yeezy brand.
He also collaborated with Gap on a line of Yeezy clothes, which achieved $1 billion in sales in its first year, and which ultimately led to the creation of a Yeezy Gap designed by Balenciaga.
Ye also generates around $180 million in revenue from his songs.
The "Donda" rapper's team, on the other hand, has taken aim at Forbes, arguing that the claimed amount in the magazine does not accurately reflect the rapper's true net worth.
According to The Blast, Kanye claims he is worth $7 billion dollars.
