Controversies or not, Rihanna is laughing her way to the bank. Even though she failed to make Forbes’ top 100 earning celebrities list, the Barbadian beauty still managed to make their top earners under 30 roster.
According to Forbes, the “Man Down” hitmaker ranked 10th place on the list after logging $29 million between May 2010 and May 2011 thanks to a tour, great album sales and endorsements with brands like Fuze Drinks and Venus Razors.
Rihanna may continue this feat going into 2012 as she recently kicked off her LOUD world tour this past weekend. She also mentioned on Twitter recently that she plans on repackaging LOUD for a re-release or drop a new album in the near future.
It’s no surprise that Rihanna has made Forbes’ list of highest paid celebrities under 30! The multi-faceted singer, songwriter, businesswoman and fashion designer has continually proven her worth. From record breaking albums to successful beauty and lingerie lines, she is a self-made mogul in the entertainment industry. Even with all of this success, it still comes as quite an accomplishment for Rihanna to make such a prestigious list. Let’s take a closer look at how the “Work” singer earned her spot on Forbes’ best-paid celebs under 30 list.
Rihanna first broke into the music scene back in 2005 with her debut album Music Of The Sun. Since then she has created hit after hit, gained millions of fans across the world and won numerous awards. Her latest studio album ANTI was released in 2016 but despite not releasing an album in 2020, she still managed to top charts around the globe with songs like “Believe It” featuring PARTYNEXTDOOR and Roddy Ricch. In addition to her musical career, Rihanna has also become very successful in other ventures too. She launched Fenty Beauty cosmetics line in 2017 which quickly became one of the most sought after brands on the market today. She also started Savage X Fenty lingerie line which recently expanded into sleepwear and ready-to-wear clothing items – much to fans delight!
