8. Madonna – $700 million
Net worth: $700 million
Who would’ve thought that an unassuming girl from Bay City, Michigan would go on to become one of the richest and most renown women in show business? Madonna Ciccone, known simply as Madonna, is just that: known as Madonna. (She recently released a song alluding to it, known simply as “Bitch, I’m Madonna”). There’s no qualifying this one: the Material Girl is the highest-selling female artist of all time, rivalling Elvis, The Beatles, and The Rolling Stones in terms of sheer revenue. She revolutionized the concert show, moving it from simply a musical performance to a multi-media sensical sensation that will leave you starstruck for days. Of the 15 highest grossing world tours ever performed, two are Madonna’s, leaving no doubt about where she gets her money.
