In the music category Rihanna came in first with a net worth of $1.4 billion followed by Taylor Swift at $740 million. Swift, 33, has increased her net worth with her record breaking Eras Tour which hits Empower Field at Mile High on Friday July, 14th and Saturday July, 15th. 

Rounding out the top 5 are:
