The Fame perfume was a huge success, that must have helped a lot

Didn't she take home 80M just from that?

Most of the artists listed don't draw the same numbers as Gaga does for her tours, which is the largest income source for musicians nowadays.

like a cat in a sil, I observe life, moving and still. My words give a clue,look inside to see whats true

Dangerous Man

Omg, she has the highest net worth among the artist listed in the op. The woman is unbothered by the media drags, the rich queen stays winning. :legend:

Britney's stats look wrong. She would be worth more. Sales, endorsements, perfumes

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,.

​first of all her tours are bigger than most other pop stars and that is the biggest money maker in music. Far more than album sales or singles

 

secondly, this is net worth not earned income

 

If she was wiser in spending her money, or if she invested it in someway and made it grow, then her networth could be higher than someone who actually has earned more money than her

 

My networth is higher than many ppl i know that actually have better incomes than me. But thats because i live with my parents and invest much of what i make. See the difference?

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

​Britney had a bigger peak than Gaga though.

​Talking about cultural impact, not commercial success. Britney was far more successful at her peak but Gaga's changed the game in a way only a few ever have been able.

Exactly. Gaga is someone who can generate a lot of money, therefor her networth is high. She is multitalented and well respected in different fields. For example when she's on the cover of Vogue it sells more than when any of the other girls are on it.

That plus I feel she is smart with her investments. Shes involved in every aspect of her work and own many companies.

And the royalties ofcourse. Girl writes her own music and it pays off.

According to Gaga I'm a ****ing rad bitch

She makes A LOT of money touring.   Thats where the big touring artists all make their money.  Album and Single sales are a pittance in comparison.

She'd be even richer if she did more endorsements but she's never really done that much.

​Britney brought back teen pop & bubble gum pop to the front, Britney was much bigger in her prime than Gaga commercial wise, cultural impact wise.
