Rihanna Is America's Youngest Female Self-Made Billionaire

Last year, Rihanna was crowned a billionaire for the first time as a part of Forbes' annual report of America's Richest Self-Made Women.

This year, the pop-superstar and cosmetics entrepreneur has taken the mantle of the country's youngest woman billionaire at the age of 34.

The vast majority of her wealth (which is valued at $1.4 billion) comes from her 50% stake in Fenty Beauty, which she owns 50% alongside luxury retailer LVMH. She also owns a 30% stake in the Savage x Fenty lingerie line which sits at a $1 billion valuation. She also happens to be the world's most wealthy female musician.

The next youngest woman on the list was Kim Kardashian who currently has a net worth of $1.8 billion at the age of 41. 

Rihanna last released an album in 2016 via her critically and fan adored record Anti. She previously announced that she was going to release a record at the end of 2019 that was reggae and dub inspired, but the project never landed.

It was recently announced that Rihanna and A$AP Rocky welcomed their first child on the 13th of May.

The couple have been dating for two years now, unveiling that Rihanna was pregnant as she strolled through New York in January. 

The birth comes a fortnight after A$AP Rocky seemingly proposed in his most recent single's music video D.M.B.

Its music video features the pair travelling around New York together, styled perfectly and deeply and romantically in love. It was directed by Rocky himself and was shot last Summer.
