The Vast Majority Of It Has Nothing To Do With Her

Not surprisingly, most of it has nothing to do with her chart-topping singles. Most of it, almost $1.4 billion, has been amassed from the sale of individual cosmetics items like lipsticks, mascara, and blush.

With the introduction of her Fenty Beauty makeup line in 2017, she partnered with luxury goods company LVMH and has since made a fortune off of it.

Whe it was originally introduced, the brand shocked the cosmetics market by offering 40 different colours of foundation to accommodate.

A wide range of complexion tones, from very dark to very light. This tactic spurred a wider-scale initiative to broaden industry participation.

The Singer’s Current Net Worth Is $1.7 Billion

Forbes estimates Rihanna’s net worth at $1.7 billion, making her the wealthiest female artist and the second-wealthiest female entertainment overall (behind Oprah Winfrey).

But her success hasn’t come from the music industry. Forbes has verified that she owns 50% of Fenty Beauty, the source of the majority of her wealth (approximately $1.4 billion).

A large portion of the rest comes from her successful music career and her acting and lingerie line, Savage x Fenty, in which she has a share valued at an estimated $270 million.
