Rihanna is the richest female musician, and third wealthiest overall, in the United Kingdom. It’s quite a feat for someone who, for all intents and purposes, is Barbadian.

The ‘Pour It Up’ singer made it to the Sunday

Times Rich List with a net worth of £468m,

or US$573 million,

for the first time after moving to London last year.

The 32-year-old was beaten only beaten by

famed composed Lord Andrew Lloyd-Webber and former The

Beatle singer Sir Paul McCartney, both with fortunes estimated

at £800m.

The list is

compiled by Robert Watts who notes that it has changed a lot from “earls, dukes

and figures from manufacturing and finance”, since first published some 30

years ago.

Watts added

that “Now money is being made in different ways, and by all sorts of different

people – like Rihanna.”

Much of RiRi’s

wealth comes from her successful Fenty brand which includes cosmetics, lingerie

and, of course, records and album sales.
