CHRISTINA AGUILERA – EST. $180 MILLION
As of 2018, the singer-songwriter has managed to sell over 75 million singles and albums worldwide. Aside from being an award-winning artist, receiving a total of 5 Grammys, she also serves as an inspiration to a number of younger singers—including the likes of Lady Gaga, Ariana Grande, and Sam Smith. She served as a judge on the NBC music competition “The Voice” for several seasons.
As an actor, the movie “Burlesque” she starred in with Cher was a box office success. During her time, Christina has made investments, not just towards constant reinvention, but also women empowerment. She wouldn’t be considered by VH1 as one of the greatest women during the music video era for nothing. Aside from music, she has also ventured into fragrances—becoming the number one celebrity brand back in 2017. Of course, part of her income comes from commercial endorsements.
