Rihanna becomes America's youngest self-made female billionaire at age 34 - Video

Rihanna is the youngest self-made billionaire in the US.

The 34-year-old singer made her debut on Forbes' annual billionaire's list in April as the world's richest female musician, and now she's been ranked 21st on the financial bible's list of the richest self-made women in the country.

The 'Love on the Brain' singer is worth around $1.4 billion, with a self-made score of 10 - meaning she "would need to have been born into poverty or the lower middle class, and faced adversity such as abuse, being left an orphan or forced to work low-paying jobs" - having generated her fortune herself, largely thanks to her Fenty Beauty cosmetics line, which generated over $550 million in revenue in 2020.

In addition, Rihanna also has a 30 percent stake in the Savage x Fenty lingerie line, as well as a successful pop career, which has helped her become the first person from Barbados ever to make the list.

Kim Kardashian was ranked higher on the list, making 16th place with $1.8 billion, but the 41-year-old beauty's self-made score was lower than Rihanna's at seven.

And Kim's 24-year-old half-sister, Kylie Jenner, was the youngest person to make the list with a worth of $600 million.
