Real estate (joint)

Beyoncé's reported wealth comes from three decades as a recording and touring artist — including the Renaissance World Tour (2023) and Cowboy Carter Tour (2025), which together grossed nearly $1 billion — plus a music catalog she owns through her company Parkwood Entertainment. She has also built consumer brands: haircare line Cécred, which had a large first-year revenue run reported in trade press, and whiskey brand SirDavis, of which she recently took full ownership after LVMH's Moët Hennessy sold its stake. A substantial share of her reported net worth is real estate held jointly with husband Jay-Z, including a $200 million Malibu estate.

A large piece of the real estate commonly cited toward her net worth (the $200M Malibu mansion) is owned jointly with Jay-Z; it is not clear from public reporting how Forbes divides jointly-held marital assets between their two individual profiles.
Tour grosses ($579.8M for Renaissance, $407.6M for Cowboy Carter per Pollstar) are box-office revenue before promoter, venue and production costs — not personal net worth.
Cécred and SirDavis revenue figures circulating in the press are trade-press estimates, not disclosed company financials.

Worth knowing

Some listicle sites publish figures for Beyoncé well above $1.5B by adding gross touring revenue or full brand valuations, rather than netting out costs the way Forbes' methodology does.

Why estimates differ

A recent authoritative estimate. Forbes' June 2026 billionaire profile is the only rigorous original net-worth analysis found; used directly. The range is widened slightly above Forbes' point figure to reflect that Forbes' own reporting on her business ventures (Cécred, SirDavis, touring) suggests some upside not fully itemized in the headline number.

Lowest reported: $900M
Estimated net worth: $1B
Highest reported: $1.2B

Spouse of Jay-Z. A large piece of the real estate commonly cited toward this net worth (the $200M Malibu mansion) is owned jointly with Jay-Z; public reporting doesn't make clear how Forbes divides jointly-held marital assets between their two individual profiles.

Some listicle sites publish figures well above $1.5B by adding gross touring revenue or full brand valuations rather than netting out costs and liabilities the way Forbes' methodology does.

How the estimate has changed

This profile’s most recent substantive review was August 20, 2026, showing an estimated net worth of $1B (range $900M – $1.2B). Only one reviewed snapshot exists so far — a change history will appear here as future reviews are published. Movement between reviews can reflect real changes in reported wealth, or simply a change in methodology or sourcing; WORTHS will always distinguish the two when it shows up.

Public figures rarely disclose a complete account of their assets and liabilities. These figures are reported estimates assembled from the cited sources, not audited financial statements.
