TAYLOR Swift’s fortune has reportedly soared to $2 billion, placing her at No. 7 on Forbes’ latest celebrity billionaire ranking and making her one of 22 stars to reach the milestone this year.
The singer’s wealth has surged thanks to the massive success of her record-breaking Eras Tour and the value of her music catalog.
According to the report, Swift earned around $1 billion from touring and royalties, while her catalog is estimated to be worth $900 million. Her real estate holdings are also said to total about $100 million.
A major part of Swift’s financial rise came after she regained control of her early music. After her masters were sold in 2019 and later transferred again, Swift re-recorded several albums as “Taylor’s Version” releases, which became major commercial hits. She later announced that she had finally regained ownership of her music.
The Eras Tour, which ran from March 2023 to December 2024, grossed $2.077 billion and drew 10 million attendees, making it the highest-grossing tour of all time.
The report also noted Swift’s continued chart and sales dominance. Her album The Life Of A Showgirl helped drive UK CD and vinyl growth in 2025, with especially strong physical sales. She has also set new chart records, including 14 No. 1 albums.
Other stars listed as billionaires include Steven Spielberg, George Lucas, Michael Jordan, Oprah Winfrey, Jay-Z, Kim Kardashian, Peter Jackson, Tiger Woods, Tyler Perry, LeBron James, Bruce Springsteen, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jerry Seinfeld, Roger Federer, and James Cameron. New additions to the billionaire list this year include Beyoncé, Roger Federer, Dr. Dre, and James Cameron.
The news adds to an already huge year for Swift, who is also rumoured to be working on new music, with Travis Kelce recently praising her creativity and passion.
