Beyoncé Knowles-Carter has officially entered the billionaire club. Forbes confirmed that the global superstar’s net worth has now surpassed $1 billion, making her one of the few musicians in history to reach this financial milestone.
Beyonce’s rise to billionaire status isn’t just about music, it’s a combination of business moves, global influence, and her drive. While her career started in music with Destiny’s Child, she has since built an empire spanning multiple industries.
Her Cowboy Carter world tour in 2025 played a huge role in boosting her net worth. The tour reportedly shattered records worldwide, selling out stadiums and generating hundreds of millions in revenue. Beyond touring, Beyoncé earns from her music catalog, which includes both her solo work and Destiny’s Child hits, bringing consistent royalties.
Business Ventures That Added to the Wealth
Beyoncé has also diversified her income streams. Her business ventures include:
- Ivy Park, her fashion and activewear brand, which continues to see strong global sales.
- Endorsements and partnerships with major brands across fashion, cosmetics, and lifestyle.
- Strategic investments in entertainment and tech ventures.
Combined, these ventures significantly contribute to her estimated $1 billion net worth, according to Forbes.
Beyoncé now joins a select group of celebrities who have crossed the billionaire mark, including Jay-Z, Rihanna, and Taylor Swift. Forbes had previously estimated her net worth at around $780–$800 million earlier in 2025, meaning her recent projects and ventures accelerated her wealth growth significantly.
