Forbes magazine has released its annual Billionaires List, and 14 celebrities, including Taylor Swift, made the cut.

The 34-year-old featured on the list for the first time. According to Forbes, Taylor is worth a massive $1.1-billion.

She officially became a billionaire in October last year following the success of her ‘Eras Tour’.

The ‘Cruel Summer’ hitmaker is the first person to appear on the list based on her music alone – which includes performing and songwriting.

A Forbes estimate stated that “$500 million of her fortune was cash from music royalties and touring, another $500 million was from the increasing value of her music catalog—much of which she has been re-recording and releasing—and $125 million of her net worth came from real estate”.

Despite her billionaire status, Taylor comes in last place out of the 14 celebrities who feature on the list.

The 2024 Forbes Billionaires List also includes Rihanna, who has a net worth of $1.4-billion at 36 years old. The singer makes most of her money from business ventures such as Fenty Beauty.

Kim Kardashian topped both Taylor and Rihanna on the list. The reality star and Skims founder’s current net worth is $1.7-billion.

Oprah Winfrey is the highest-earning female entertainer with a net worth of $2.8-billion.

With a net worth of $5.5-billion, George Lucas, who had directed movies such as ‘Stars Wars’, is the richest celebrity in the world.

The other stars on the list are Jay-Z, LeBron James, Tiger Woods, Magic Johnson, Tyler Perry, Dick Wolf, Peter Jackson, Steven Spielberg, and Peter Jackson.
