Selena Gomez embraces billionaire status with gratitude
Actress, singer, and businesswoman Selena Gomez has just entered the billionaires’ club with her estimated net worth starting from $1.3 billion. Thus, Gomez, who currently counts millions, stays very humble and polite, stating money issues are not something that makes her feel quite comfortable. While presenting her latest film, Emilia Pérez at the New York Festival on September 30th, she spoke briefly to the press about her newfound wealth.
“I’m very grateful,” Gomez said to Entertainment Tonight. My most favorite comment is ‘I personally think it’s distasteful to talk about money, but I really am giving all the credit to people who buy the products.’ She agreed that those people who supported her and those who trusted her products had contributed a lot in making her dreams a reality and thus, she said thank you. “They are the ones that made this dream of mine come through, so I am really really honored and just happy,” she said.
As Bloomberg reported on September 6, Gomez’s earnings mainly stem from Rare Beauty cosmetics company she created in 2019. The slogan spreads the message of accepting all kinds of bodies and genders and the creation of effective colorful products catapulted the brand into success immensely to her wealth.
This is in addition to other investments that contributes to Gomez’s financial potentiality; Rare Beauty. Her discography, filmography, real estate, as well as sponsorship contracts, also form a major portion of her ascending net worth. In addition, She, along with her mother Mandy Teefey, and her sister, and businesswoman Daniella Pierson run a mental health-focused platform called Wondermind since 2022.
Achieving this financial feat puts Gomez in the league of super-famous artists, with total earnings of a billion dollars and above – the company now includes Taylor Swift, Rihanna, Jay-Z, Ye, and Bruce Springsteen among others. Though she is in league with some of the giant stars in the entertainment industry, the latter continues to be centered around appreciation and individuals, who stood behind her throughout many years.
Despite her current success, Selena Gomez seems to remain humble and real, attentive to her fans who created her success along with the people who worked with her. This gave her humility in the face of such wealth making her more admirable when receiving the honor as not only a business mogul but a role model for many.
