Beyoncé has reached billionaire status.
Forbes reports that the 44-year-old is now the fifth musician to be welcomed into the elite club, which includes her husband, Jay-Z, as well as Rihanna, Taylor Swift, and Bruce Springsteen.
Bey’s most recent tours, 2023’s Renaissance World Tour and 2025’s Cowboy Carter Tour, have been highly lucrative, with the former grossing almost $600 million and the latter becoming the world’s highest-grossing concert tour of the year and country tour ever, with $407.6 million in earnings.
Her entertainment company, Parkwood Entertainment, has enabled her to retain more of the profits by managing her music career and covering production costs for her music, documentaries, and shows.
In addition to making over $400 million from Cowboy Carter Tour ticket sales, she also made an additional $50 million from show merch, and Parkwood produced Beyoncé’s most recent venture. According to the outlet, she earned an estimated $148 million in 2025 before taxes, making her the third-highest-paid musician in the world.
The pop icon has earned millions from other performances and documentaries, including around $60 million from her 2019 Netflix documentary, Homecoming: A Film by Beyoncé, and around half of the $44 million grossed by her 2023 Renaissance World Tour concert film. She also reportedly secured $50 million for her halftime performance during Netflix’s first Christmas Day NFL game in 2024.
