Beyoncé’s six fragrance brands have generated over $500 million in revenue, and she made a $20 million deal with Coty to develop a signature scent. She also co-owns the fashion line House of Deréon with her mother, Tina Knowles.
The “Single Ladies” singer also has a $70 million art collection she shares with her husband, Jay-Z, and a substantial real estate portfolio.
