BRITNEY SPEARS – $9 MILLION

As a pop music princess, Britney Spears has sold more than 100 million records worldwide, including 70 million records sold in the United States alone. Forbes reported that Britney Spears was the highest-paid female musician in 2002 and 2012. She may be in the spotlight less these days, but that doesn’t mean Britney has stopped making money.

With countless chart-toppers that are still well-loved, even by today’s younger generation, those royalties will keep on coming. Of course, that’s aside from the fact that she’s also made her fortune through various business ventures—from fragrances to clothing, this savvy businesswoman has tried it all. No wonder she makes more than $20 million annually! Her home in California reflects the singer’s lavish tastes. From a media-gaming room to outdoor pools—there’s plenty to see and do. It really is a wise investment on her part.
