Taylor Swift Lands On Forbes’ World’s Billionaires List With $1.1B Net Worth

If Taylor Swift still has a “Blank Space,” she can write in a dollar sign now.

The pop superstar, who reached billionaire status in October, landed on Forbes’ World’s Billionaires list, the business magazine shared Tuesday. Among other celeb billionaires who made the cut – including RihannaKim KardashianOprah Winfrey and “Star Wars” creator George Lucas – Swift was ranked at No. 14 with a net worth of $1.1 billion.

Lucas topped the celebrity billionaires list with a whopping net worth of $5.5 billion.

However, Swift has made history with her economic achievement. The “Is It Over Now?” singer is the first person to reach billionaire status “based solely on songwriting and performing,” according to Forbes.

Swift had a lucrative 2023, thanks in large part to her record-breaking Eras Tour, which became the first tour in history to earn more than $1 billion. The global trek, which kicked off in March 2023, took in an estimated ticket gross of $1.04 billion last year from 4.35 million tickets sold, according to music industry trade publication Pollstar.

Swift’s U.S. concerts added an estimated $4.3 billion to the country’s gross domestic product in 2023, Bloomberg reported in October.
