36-year-old Western pop diva Taylor Swift continues to have good news. In addition to busy preparations for her early July wedding in New York, the latest issue of Forbes reports that Swift has once again become the richest female singer in history.
According to Forbes magazine’s “50 Most Influential People” list released on the 4th for 2026, Taylor Swift is now the richest female singer ever. As of March 2026, her net worth is estimated to be $2 billion USD (approximately 8.14 billion MYR).
It’s been exactly 20 years since the release of Swift’s debut album. Forbes describes her as “one of the most successful songwriters in history,” and also highlights her “Eras Tour world tour,” which has accumulated a box office of $2.2 billion USD (about 8.95 billion MYR), setting the record for the highest-grossing concert tour ever.
In addition, Taylor Swift re-recorded many of her early albums—an extraordinary and revolutionary move in the industry at the time—which allowed her to regain ownership of her music and rightfully earn the royalties. According to Forbes, in May 2025, Swift ultimately regained control over her album masters for approximately $360 million USD (about 1.46 billion MYR).#
