Beyoncé reaches billionaire status after record-breaking ‘Cowboy Carter’ tour, hair care and whiskey launches

Beyoncé has reached the status of a billionaire, joining her rapper husband Jay-Z in this honor, alongside other leading musicians.

The Drunk in Love singer has earned most of her 10-figure fortune thanks to her record-breaking world tours and owning the rights to her music catalog.

The star reportedly managed to gross more than $400 million in ticket sales and another $50 million in terms of merchandise sold during these shows.

Since the star's entertainment firm, Parkwood, solely produced the tour, she was able to secure even greater amounts of profit.

Forbes noted that in 2025, the singer earned $148 million before taxes from touring, as well as from her music catalog and sponsorship deals.

To accompany this, the release of her Grammy-winning country album, Beyoncé, for Netflix's first Christmas Day NFL game, for which she garnered an estimated $50 million, including production costs.
