Taylor Swift has officially entered the exclusive club of billionaires, according to Forbes' latest rankings. Her personal fortune is estimated at a whopping $1.1 billion, placing her at No. 2,545 on the list of the world's wealthiest individuals.
Forbes reported that a total of 2,781 people now boast a net worth of at least ten figures, with their combined wealth reaching an astonishing $14.2 trillion. Swift's rise to billionaire status is largely attributed to the success of her music and concert tours, particularly her immensely popular Eras Tour.
The Eras Tour, which kicked off its international leg in August, has already raked in a staggering $190 million after taxes. According to Pollstar, the tour grossed an impressive $1.04 billion over a 12-month period, with predictions suggesting it could ultimately generate a total of $2.165 billion.
Swift's real estate investments also played a significant role in her financial milestone. Since October, she has been associated with the prestigious "three-comma club," a nickname for individuals whose net worth exceeds $1 billion.
In addition to her financial achievements, Swift has enjoyed several other victories in recent years. She released a record-breaking concert film, was named Time's Person of the Year, and added two more Grammy awards to her collection.
Swift is not alone in her billionaire status. Over 260 other individuals earned a spot on Forbes' list of global billionaires for the first time, highlighting the growing wealth among the world's elite.
Topping the list of billionaires is Bernard Arnault, the CEO of LVMH, with a staggering net worth of $233 billion. He is followed by familiar faces Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, and Jeff Bezos, founder of Amazon, with a combined net worth of $622 billion.
