Taylor Swift now a billionaire - as world's wealthiest revealed in 2024 Forbes list (2024)

Taylor Swift has made it on to a list of the world's billionaires, according to Forbes, as her Eras Tour spanning 152 shows and five continents generated more than $1bn (£800m) in revenue.

The 34-year-old superstar, who stole the show at this year's Grammy Awards by winning album of the year for the fourth time, is now said to have accumulated a fortune of $1.1bn (£874m).

According to Forbes, the estimated figure is based on the value of Swift's music, earnings from her world tour and her real estate portfolio.

The US country-turned-pop singer is the only musician to have earned so much money from her songs and performances alone, Forbes adds.

Swift, whose relationship with NFL player Travis Kelce, 34, has gained her - and American football - even more publicity, is one of the 265 people to have joined the 2,781-strong list of billionaires over the past year.
