English singer-songwriter, guitarist, pianist and drummer, Ellie Goulding, has an estimated net worth of $10 million. Born Elena Jane Goulding on 30 December 1986 in Hereford, Herefordshire, England, she later moved to the country's east coast to study drama at the University of Kent.

In 2009, Goulding began building an audience via the internet, where early tracks like "Starry Eyed" and a cover of Sam Sparro's "Black & Gold" were posted on taste-making MP3 blogs such as Discodust. Goulding soon graduated from the blogosphere to print media, gaining praise from mainstream publications like The Guardian and fielding offers from record labels. She ultimately signed a major-label deal with Polydor Records and Goulding topped the BBC's "Sound of 2010," a poll conducted by British music critics and industry insiders to identify new talent. In March 2010, she released her debut album "Lights". Lights topped the U.K. charts during its first week and spun off a Top 5 single, "Starry Eyed," which also charted well in Ireland and New Zealand.
