Robyn ‘Rihanna’ Fenty is the richest female musician in the world and the second-highest-paid entertainer behind Oprah. Since signing to Def Jam Records in 2005, Rihanna has been a force in music, modeling, fashion, and beauty. Now, her fortune is worth $1.7 billion according to Forbes. However, unlike most billionaires, she didn’t come from generational wealth, nor did her music career directly amass her fortune. After launching Fenty Beauty in 2017, things changed immensely for the pop star, as a new precedent was set for her self-made billions.
