Beyonce's net worth is a pretty intriguing topic not only because she is the other half of hip hop's most influential couple, but also because she is considered as the highest paid female artist based on Forbes' 2011 Celebrity 100 list.
Also considered as the second most influential and powerful celebrity, it is mostly expected of Beyonce's net worth to be massive.
According to reports, Beyonce's net worth has a long history with the R&B singer starting her career as part of the all-girl group Destiny's Child.
In 2001, the siren-voiced performer decided to go solo and that was when she reportedly started to earn world-wide popularity. She would then land overwhelming record sales, Grammy Awards and movie roles taking Beyonce's net worth to a whole new level.
However, the diva's success didn't end there, as Beyonce's net worth continued to soar when she dated and eventually married rap mogul Shawn "Jay-Z" Carter. Her romance with the raper has done a great deal to her career as she later became a high profile performer in the entertainment world.
And while it is assumed that Beyonce's net worth depends mostly on her music career, it quite interesting to learn that the entertainer also earns as a fashion designer, actress, endorser and businesswoman.
The mother of Blue Ivy has reportedly put her money in Dereon Clothing line and other properties, and she also has endorsement deals from L'Oreal DirectTV, General Mills and many others.
With such diversity in her portfolio, one would simply wonder how much really is Beyonce's net worth?
TheRichest.com reported Beyonce's net worth to be approximately $450 million. Celebrity Net Worth also gave the same estimated value for the artist while adding that all in all, the singer and her husband's combined net worth is $1 billion, with Jay Z 's personal net worth accounting for $560 million. Their combined net worth has easily landed them the top spot for the richest celebrity couple in the world list.
It is also expected that after the power couple's sold out "On the Run" tours, Beyonce's net worth would once again shoot up.
