Britney Spears, a name that has faded out and back into the limelight over the years, is an American pop singer and entertainer, with a net worth of $60 million as of 2023.
Britney, who despite being surrounded by controversy following a public meltdown in 2008, is still one of the most successful musicians of all time, ranking as the 8th highest-selling female musician, with almost 150 million records sold to date.
Her tours have brought in more than $500 million worldwide, with The Circus Starring Britney Spears tour grossing $198.31 million across 97 shows.
She was one of the highest-paid entertainers at the height of her career in the early 2000s, earning $40 million from touring and record sales in 2002 alone. However, when she was placed under a conservatorship in 2008 managed by her father, Jamie Spears, court documents showed that Britney was close to having no funds left. Since then, her net worth has grown to $60-70 million.
Britney Spears Net Worth
Over the years, Britney broke countless numbers and records in the industry, solidifying her status as an A-list entertainer.
Thanks to the massive fanbase and popularity she quickly garnered during the first years of her career; Britney was the highest-paid female musician for many years between 2002 to 2012.
In 2012 alone, Britney earned $58 million despite not touring or releasing any new music that year, outearning Taylor Swift by $1 million, highlighting the level of success Britney had during that time.
That same year, she received a massive $15 million payment for her time on X Factor in 2012, making her the highest-paid judge on any singing competition during that time. Additionally, she was earning a minimum of $350,000 and upwards of $500,000 per night for her performance at a Las Vegas residency in 2013.
While Britney has remained outside the music scene during the last few years, releasing her last album, Glory, on August 26, 2016, she managed to land a $15 million book deal, following the termination of her conservatorship in 2021. To top it all off, her perfume brand has earned $1.5 billion to this day, putting her earnings from fragrances alone at an estimated $50 million.
Britney Spears Album Sales
Britney’s debut album, …Baby One More Time was released in 1999, selling over 24 million copies, earning a spot in the top 50 most sold albums and raking in an estimated $31 million. This would catapult her into the spotlight, where she would follow up with her album, Oops!... I Did It Again in 2000, bringing in 19.3 million sales.
From there, her album sales would drop astronomically with the industry shifting towards online streaming, as her 2001 album, Britney, would sell 10 million copies, an impressive feat that pales when compared to her previous sales.
