From Pop Star to Powerhouse Entrepreneur

Robyn Rihanna Fenty, born on February 20, 1988 in Saint Michael, Barbados, first captivated the world in 2005 with her debut single Pon de Replay from her album Music of the Sun. Over the years, she built a powerhouse music career, releasing a string of successful albums including Good Girl Gone Bad, Loud, Unapologetic, and Anti. With over 60 million albums and 120 million singles sold worldwide, she is recognized as the best-selling digital artist of all time and has notched 12 No. 1 hits on the Billboard Hot 100.

But music is only one piece of her billion-dollar empire.

Fenty Beauty

The bulk of Rihanna’s net worth comes from her groundbreaking cosmetics line, Fenty Beauty, launched in September 2017 in partnership with luxury conglomerate LVMH. Designed to be inclusive for all skin tones, the brand quickly redefined beauty standards and raked in over $100 million in sales within its first two months.

By 2018, Fenty Beauty generated $570 million in annual revenue, and the brand’s current valuation sits between $2 and $3 billion. Rihanna holds an estimated 50% ownership stake, making her share worth $1–1.5 billion pre-tax.

Savage X Fenty

Following the success of her beauty line, Rihanna launched Savage X Fenty in 2018, a lingerie brand celebrated for promoting body positivity and diversity. She owns a 30% stake in the company, which is currently valued at approximately $1 billion.

Music, Movies, and Millions

Even as her business ventures flourish, Rihanna hasn’t left the stage or screen behind. Her return to music with the emotional ballad Lift Me Up in 2022 for the Black Panther: Wakanda Forever soundtrack marked her first solo release in six years. She went on to headline the Super Bowl LVII halftime show in 2023, which became the most-watched halftime show in history.

Rihanna’s film appearances include roles in Battleship, Ocean’s 8, Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets, and the animated hit Home.

Earnings

In a typical year, Rihanna earns $40 to $80 million from her various ventures. Between June 2018 and June 2019, she earned $65 million, and the following year, she made $45 million. Major endorsement deals and brand collaborations with companies like Samsung, MAC Cosmetics, Armani, Dior, and Puma have further contributed to her massive fortune.

Real Estate Holdings

Rihanna has made several high-end real estate investments over the years, including:

A $13.8 million mansion in Beverly Hills purchased in 2021
A neighboring house acquired for $10 million the same year
A $22 million estate in Barbados
The “Mansion in the Sky” in Los Angeles, bought for $21 million in 2023 and sold in May 2024

She also previously owned multiple properties in Los Angeles and rented luxurious homes in Manhattan and London.

Philanthropy

Beyond business and entertainment, Rihanna is renowned for her philanthropy. Through the Clara Lionel Foundation, she has donated millions to causes ranging from disaster relief and healthcare to education. In 2020 alone, she donated over $8 million for COVID-19 relief and another $2 million to support victims of domestic violence.

Personal Life

Rihanna’s high-profile relationships have frequently made headlines. She dated Drake and Hassan Jameel, but her most publicized romance was with Chris Brown, which ended following a domestic violence incident in 2009. Since 2021, she has been in a relationship with rapper ASAP Rocky, with whom she shares two children.
