Mariah Carey – $320 Million

Mariah Carey used to dominate the music scene in the 1990s to the early 2000s. She has one of the industry’s best voices that led Guinness World Records to name her the Songbird Supreme. This title probably stems from being one of the best-selling singers in the world. Not to mention, it helped Mariah earn a ton of cash, giving her savings worth $320 million.

Everything began when she signed with Columbia Records in 1991. Her self-titled debut album was then named the top-selling LP of the year with 15 million copies sold. Undoubtedly, the album’s producers had earned their investment money back and more. Since then, Mariah had dropped hit songs after hit songs. For her 1994 song All I Want for Christmas alone, the diva has gained a skyrocketing $60 million. The holiday anthem continues to be relevant today, so we can definitely expect that she’s raking in more cash even as we speak.
