Taylor Swift is now the 2nd richest self-made woman in music — but still far off from being No. 1

She’s in her Forbes era.

Taylor Swift is the second richest self-made woman in music, with an estimated net worth of $740 million, according to a list Forbes published Thursday.

The 33-year-old “Karma” singer has surpassed Madonna, who reportedly has a net worth of $580 million, as well as Beyoncé at $540 million.

Swift occupies the No. 34 spot overall on the “America’s Richest Self-Made Women” list, with wealthy company, including No. 13 Oprah Winfrey ($2.5 billion), and No. 1 seed Diane Hendricks ($15 billion) of ABC Supply, the largest wholesale distributor of roofing materials in the US.

Swift’s net worth can only grow as she continues her “Eras Tour,” which controversially crashed Ticketmaster when tickets went on sale last year.

A Massachusetts mother claimed she spent $4,500 on two Swift tickets to accompany her daughter to a show — only for the 19-year-old to take a friend instead.

Meanwhile, Rihanna, who is a billionaire thanks to her Super Bowl halftime show-worthy discography and Fenty Beauty makeup company, takes the top music spot on the “Richest Self-Made Women” list with an estimated net worth of $1.4 billion — neatly doubling Swift’s figure.

The 35-year-old “Bitch Better Have My Money” singer is listed as No. 20 overall on the
“America’s Self-Made Women” list.
