IS Rihanna there youngest billionaire of the United States. At least, among the girls who are not sitting on their estates since birth. He writes it Forbeswhich in the list of self-made billionaire americane inserts the singer and founder of the brand Fenty Beauty in 21st place.
Although she is not even in the top 10 – the richest woman of all is the 75-year-old businesswoman Diane Hendricksco-founder of the building supply chain Abc Supply – 34-year-old Rihanna is though the youngest billionaire ever (and the only one under 40), followed by 41-year-old Kim Kardashian.
To really make the singer’s fortune Umbrellahowever, is not the music, but her make-up line Fenty Beauty which it co-owns with LVMH and which in 2020 alone (the year of the pandemic and lockdowns) made it more than 550 million dollars.
Main, but not the only source of income, Fenty Beauty fills Rihanna’s piggy bank with her “cousin” Savage x Fentythe line of lingerie of which the singer is a 30% partner. And then of course there is the musical career (not surprisingly she has won 9 Grammy Awards), albeit, apparently, to a lesser extent.
In the report card of Forbeswhich assigns a score also on the basis of how much the heritage is the result of hard work and not inheritedRihanna got a nice 10, the highest grade (you only go above the “pass” if you are self-made billionairethat is, self-made billionaire), but she doesn’t feel like she’s arrived: “I will continue to workit will not be a number that will stop me, ”he told al New York Times, promising that his empire will continue to grow. Also because she now has a child to support. And it doesn’t matter if he’s already the baby richer than showbiz.
