It took just under 20 years for Rihanna to go from being a simple student in Barbados to becoming one of the wealthiest women in the world. Between her artistic career and her ventures, the singer has amassed a considerable fortune.
Multiple specialized sources, including Forbes magazine, consider that Rihanna’s net worth until 2023 is around $1.7 billion.
This figure placed the Barbadian in 21st place on the Forbes America’s Richest Self-Made Women list and 1,729th on the World’s Billionaires List.
Although Rihanna paused her musical career since “Anti,” her latest studio album recorded in 2016, she released the single “Lift Me Up” as part of the soundtrack of the film “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.”
She has released eight albums, placed 14 singles on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, sold 60 million records, and sold around 215 million digital tracks in her 18-year career.
Although she has also ventured into cinema, her career in the seventh art has not been as successful. She has credits in “Battleship,”“Bring it On: All or Nothing,” and “Ocean’s Eight.”
