So proud of Madonna and still being at the top of this list. It says a lot about her legendary status imo...

Did you know

In 1990, Madonna became the first woman entrepreneur to appear on a Forbes cover.

That’s a weird/conservative estimation of her net worth, no? I don’t think it adds up. Considering she’s sold over 300 million albums, had tour grosses of over 1.2 billion, invested in different products and companies, collaborated with brands, etc... Unless Guy Ritchie and WE took a lot away from her, I’m not sure it’s a fair estimate. Thoughts?

Absolute rubbish, I never pay attention to things like this, and I certainly don't believe Madonna is worth that "less"

Who makes up this nonsense!

Guys, that number is her networth, not the money she has gained in total over the last 40 years.

Networth means real estate + actions/stocks/shares + companies + vehicles/art/liquid assets + money in the bank, all under her own name. Of course she's made way more money than that with album sales, tours and merchadising, but most of that money/profit has gone to paying all the people around her, from the personal assistants to the manufacturers.

Trust me, half a BILLION is a HUGE networth to have.
