Rihanna has always been the pop queen of the music industry who took over her follower with her unwavering personality and music. And now, ‘Diamonds’ singer has debuted her name on Forbes’ Annual Billionaires List.

Not only Rihanna but the list also includes Jay-Z and Kanye West as well. Thanks to Rihanna’s international cosmetic brand Fenty Beauty, the singer is currently worth $1.7 billion. With this record, she has become one of the wealthiest musicians alive at her age.

Fenty Beauty played a vital role in this achievement as the brand made a huge revenue of more than $550 million in the year 2020 when the ongoing global pandemic took a severe stage.

Another person who made his place on the list is none but Kanye West who is currently worth $2 billion. This 44-year-old rapper is currently ranking at No. 1,513 in the list, higher than Rihanna.

Other investments worked well in case rapper West as well since he gained much wealth through Yeezy Sneakers and clothing brands that he owns. In 2020, he first debuted his name on the Forbes’ Annual Billionaires List.
