Since rising to fame in the early 1990s, Mariah Carey has been a household name and an inspiration to many musicians of today's generation.
The singer has numerous number one singles and albums under her belt, as well as successful tours and concerts all around the world.
Her success equates to big money as she's earning millions of dollars, but did you know she has other sources of cash aside from making music?
According to Celebrity Net Worth, the singer has an estimated net worth of $320 million, making her one of the 15 best-selling musicians in history after selling over 200 million records globally.
Aside from making music by selling albums and putting all of her song catalogs on online music streaming platforms like Spotify and Apple Music, Carey has other outlets for her earnings.
Per Life and Style Magazine, the singer is also getting paid for her TV appearances, her most notable being a judge on one season of "American Idol."
The "Emotions" songstress reportedly took home a check of $18 million from the gig.
Carey also went on a two-year Las Vegas residency at Caesars Palace. In 2015, she signed a contract that gave her a whopping $30 million.
Essence reported that the singer has a line of bags, footwear, jewelry, fragrances, and more, making her a multi-million dollar fashion entrepreneur.
How Does Mariah Carey Spend Her Millions of Dollars?
It is known to the public that Mariah Carey is a high-maintenance diva. In fact, she admitted it herself in an interview with The Guardian.
"You know what? I don't give a s***. I f****** am high-maintenance because I deserve to be at this point. That may sound arrogant, but I hope you frame it within the context of coming from nothing," she told the outlet.
With that being said, the singer spends her money on lavish things like $100,000 worth of exotic flowers delivered to her home, as reported by Vanity Fair.
Since she's living a glamorous life, Mimi took her fans to her wardrobe in a video by Vogue. The singer revealed that she has a separate closet for her shoes and lingerie.
She has an annual budget of $45,000 for spa treatments, not for her but for her lovely pets.
For a simple dinner out at a trendy restaurant in Los Angeles, E! Online reported that she spends $1,500 on food.
