The actress, singer and entrepreneur amassed an estimated $1.3 billion fortune from her Rare Beauty brand to music and hit shows.
According to the publication, more than 80% of Gomez’s net worth derives from her stake in Rare Beauty Brand Inc.
Brand partnerships, acting deals and mental-health startups also contributed to her wealth.

She then launched a music career, first with the pop-rock band Selena Gomez & the Scene and then as a solo artist.
With 424 million followers, Gomez is behind only football icons Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi as the most popular person on Instagram.
Music tours only accounted for less than 5% of Gomez’s wealth, with album and record sales less than 2%. She hasn’t toured since 2016.
Most of Gomez’s fortune — roughly $1.1 billion — comes from her stake in Rare Beauty.
