The net worth of female popstars and their debut year...

Lady Gaga - $200 Million - Debut 2008
Katy Perry - $130 Million - Debut 2008
Rihanna - $120 Million - Debut 2005
Britney Spears - $220 Million - Debut 1999
Nicki Minaj - $50 Million - Debut 2010
Kesha - $40 Million - Debut 2010
Iggy Azalea - $6 Million - Debut 2014
Azealia Banks - $3 Million - Debut ...2012... kinda..

What's really striking is that, although "music not the bling" (because we're all SO here for Gaga touring on a shoestring budget with a cardboard cut-out of a piano and lighting done with a guy smoking weed flicking the switch on and off on the main light in the school hall where she's booked) Gaga has made a TON of money - substantially more than any of her contemporaries who've been around for the same length of time (Katy), longer (Rihanna) and substantially longer (Britney.. well, almost).

I'm struggling to see where all this money has come from. Sure, there's TF(m) TMB and BTW, but other than that, she's really had nothing huge of note that could make her that wealthy, and I very much doubt her label gave her such an epic deal for personal profit on her tours when she's such a young artist...

It's nuts,.

Lady Gaga has a mind blowing net worth of$230 million

Unless you're basing the OP on Forbes' figures?

Well, first of all, inflation etc. still is a thing to care about when you compare years. Only matters for Britney, but still. Minor detail.

Second of all, Gaga was skyrocketed into immediate international fame after her first single alone and could maintain it with her other singles and her fascinating persona that resulted in a massive interest of audiences, most importantly for touring. None of the other recent pop girls had that because they didn't have a great performance reputation. I do think most of it comes from that incredible touring power, which she's known for, another reputation she built from the very start and helps her along the way.

I think a major difference between Gaga and the rest of the singers is that Gaga also gets royalties from being the song writer and co-producer, it gets you a lot of cash :worship:

​Yes, her net worth is 230M. Wrong numbers in the op

Gaga does better at touring than anyone but Beyonce and Madonna, with whom she is equal.

She also gets writing and production royalties from her biggest hits, something many of her contemporaries don't.

On top of that she's also made by far the biggest impact of any pop musician since MJ and Madonna hit their peaks in the mid-80's
