Global superstar Beyoncé has officially entered the billionaire club, becoming the fifth musician in history to reach this extraordinary milestone.
According to Forbes, the 44-year-old icon now stands alongside an ultra-exclusive group that includes Jay-Z, Taylor Swift, Bruce Springsteen, and Rihanna.
This landmark achievement follows an exceptionally strong period in Beyoncé’s career. Her Renaissance World Tour in 2023 generated nearly $600 million (around €550 million), ranking it among the highest-grossing tours of all time, reports Daily Mail.
In 2024, Beyoncé once again surprised fans and critics alike with the release of her country-inspired album Cowboy Carter, opening new artistic and commercial horizons. The project included a major NFL performance and laid the groundwork for what became the most profitable tour of 2025.
Forbes highlights that the dramatic rise in her wealth is closely tied to smart business decisions. Since founding Parkwood Entertainment in 2010, Beyoncé has taken full control of her career—retaining ownership of her music and maximizing profits from global tours.
Although she has invested in several other ventures, music remains the primary source of her fortune.
With this achievement, Beyoncé not only cements her status as a global cultural icon, but also as one of the most powerful women in the entertainment industry, redefining success at the highest level.
