Top 10 Richest Female Singers 2016 – Real Net
Worths
You know, when you look at the true net worth of the wealthy
online, especially artists, you tend to find that they didn’t
really make all that much of their fortune through their art.
Whether it’s singers, painters or actors in the vast majority,
their salary only plays a minor role in their income. The
wealthiest artists of our time bought their mansions with
investment money, or branding money. Don’t get me wrong, they still
sell an awful lot of records, and are all supremely talented in
their chosen genre, it’s just a little surprising to me that their
earnings come from all sorts of places.
The Top 10 Richest Female Singers – 2016 True Net Worth
List
So let’s take a look at the top ten richest female
singers, and find out where they made their money.
#10 – Nana Mouskouri Net Worth 2016 – $280
Million
Have you ever heard of Nana Mouskouri? No? Neither had I until
today. I’ve made a point of actually listening to the music of each
of the women on this list and I have to say, she’s not bad. A
little pedestrian for me, but she has a fine voice. The Greek born
singer has a true net worth of
$280
million. She had made a name for herself in the pop
world of the sixties on-wards. Recording in a wide variety of
genres, and languages, the singer is one of the few on this list
who seems to have made most of her money exclusively via her
singing. Now, she does own property all over the world, and is
currently residing in a lavish mansion in Cologny, Switzerland, but
she is also one of the top-selling artists of all time. So
diversification wasn’t really an issue for her.
#9 – Jennifer Lopez Net Worth 2016 – $300
Million
Now everyone
knows “Jenny from the block”. Her true net worth is sitting at
$300 million. Here’s where we see the
benefits of diversification. She did not make the majority of her
money from her singing career. Her high-profile appearance as a
Judge on “American Idol” netted her a multi-million dollar salary.
Coupled with the earnings from her film career, her recent starring
role on TV show “Shades of Blue”, countless clothing, fragrance and
accessory lines, and a few savvy investments, all add up to an
income that cannot be sneezed at. She recently listed her three
acre luxury mansion as for sale, so if you have $14.5 million handy
you know who to call. She currently lives in a penthouse apartment
in New York.
#8 – Cher Net Worth 2016 – $320 Million
It’s Cher,
stupid! She’s a damn Oscar winner with a net worth of
$320 million. Her annual salary hits $28
million and she currently splits her time between her Malibu
mansion, worth $45 million, and a small beach house in Venice,
worth $1.8 million. She is one of the best-selling artists of all
time, from her early days as one half of Sonny & Cher to her
massively successful career as a solo artist. She churned out pop
ballad after pop ballad, and even veered into Rock & Roll with
a high-profile 1981 collaboration with Meatloaf. She has also
earned quite a bit of cash appearing in a number of high grossing
films from the 1980’s until present.
#7 – Barbra Streisand Net Worth 2016 – $340
Million
The mother of
the contemporary pop diva. The girl for whom it is all about.
Barbra Joan Streisand’s true net worth sits at
$340 million. The woman has been
parodied so many times that I can’t look at her picture without
laughing. She first hit the big time as a teenager, singing in
nightclubs and making guest appearances on “The Tonight Show”.
After a successful turn on Broadway with “Funny Girl” she made a
transition into film. The income earned through her various albums
and films, coupled with her work as a director and producer has
gained her quite the fortune. She currently lives in a beautiful
mansion in Malibu, but don’t take a picture of it or she’ll sick
her lawyers on you.
#6 – Shania Twain Net Worth 2016 – $350
Million
That pop country
star from Ontario Canada has a true net worth of
$350 million, but that don’t impress me
much. See! Doesn’t feel too nice to hear that does it Shania?
Anyway, now that I’ve worked out some issues there back to the
actual bio. She’s another one with a fortune mostly amassed through
her music. She rose to fame in the mid-nineties and became one of
the biggest country stars in the world. Her tours are routinely
sold out, and high earners, and for some reason her albums still
sell remarkably well. Does my disdain for her come across too
strong? I always preferred Dolly Parton I guess.
#5 – Dolly Parton Net Worth 2016 – $500
Million
Speak of the
devil, eh? The pipes on this woman, good lord. She started from
nothing, wrote most of her own music and consistently put out good
records for years. Dolly’s true net worth sits at
$500 million. The Queen of asset
diversification, she made her money in not only music, but films,
books, clothing and of course her own theme park. Dollywood. What a
weird thing to have, when you think about it. I mean most theme
parks are based on a number of properties, Disneyland etc, but
Dollywood is sold as being based on one country singer. Regardless,
she is also owns a wide variety of property all over the country
and recently listed an oddly cluttered mess of a property in west
Hollywood for sale.
#5 – Gloria Estefan Net Worth 2016 – $500
Million
Gloria was
another one I’d never heard of. Her true net worth is
$500 million, tying with Dolly. She
made her wealth through her music, first in a group then as a solo
artist. The Cuban born artist is one of the most popular Spanish
language singers in the world, her music
is
very good, though I would consider her voice to lack punch.
Pleasant to listen to, but it doesn’t move me. She has had a
successful career as an entrepreneur, earning income off of several
Cuban themed restaurants on the west coast, she also has a minor
stake in the Miami Dolphins. Her other ventures include books,
fashion and perfumes.
#3 – Mariah Carey Net Worth 2016 – $520
Million
You know, I really thought I liked Mariah Carey’s music. All I want
for Christmas is a wonderfully sung song. But the rest of her back
catalog seems to lack the soaring highs of that track. Maybe I’m
not listening to the right songs, leave a comment and tell me what
I should be listening to. Anyway, Mariah Carey’s true net worth
sits at $520 million. This fortune was
amassed not only through her singing career, but she too had a run
as a judge on American Idol, with a salary of around $18 million
dollars. She is currently headlining Caesar’s Palace in Las Vegas
for an undisclosed sum, though no doubt it is equally
ridiculous.
#2 – Celine Dion Net Worth 2016 – $630 Million
The Québécois
Diva herself. Making a name for herself in the eighties in Europe
and Japan before hitting big in the States with her début English
album Unison. She has a true net worth of
$630
million. Her music career has spanned the decades and
earned her the vast majority of her fortune. Though she has
diversified into other business ventures. She founded the Nickels
fast food chain, though divested herself of her stock in the late
nineties. She owns Les Productions Feeling Inc., a Quebec based
agency for French-speaking singers. She also owns a golf club, a
restaurant and a night club. Her years long booking in Las Vegas
was another big source of income.
#1 – Madonna Net Worth 2016 – $1 Billion
Singer, actress,
songwriter and entrepreneur Madonna has done it all. And it has
paid dividends. Her true net worth is a whopping
$1
Billion, this makes her not only the richest female singer
in the world, but the richest of all singers, regardless of gender.
She is known for her reinvention on the stage and a genre spanning
back catalog of music. Beginning in the 1980’s and remaining
popular to this day. Her business ventures outside of music include
a wide variety of branded merchandise, clothes, books, makeup,
fragrances, you name it she sells it. She owns a chain of fitness
stores, Hard Candy Fitness, founded an entertainment company,
Maverick, and has made appearances in film and television. Madonna
has leveraged a successful singing career into a multimedia empire
that spans the globe.
So there we have it. The top ten richest female singers in the
world. Allow me to point it out again, it seems to me that once you
make a million dollars it’s surprisingly easy to make two, three,
four and so much more. Money makes money. These stars could sit
back and live off interest payments for the rest of their lives,
hell I wouldn’t be surprised if that formed the bottom line for a
few of them. And for each of them all it took was a little talent
and that spark of luck that propels the talented forward, that
seldom acknowledged serendipitous little moment in their lives that
made them famous.
Let it not be said that they didn’t work hard, but their financial
advisers had to have worked pretty hard too.
