00:13The music, fashion, and beauty mogul placed 21st overall on Forbes' list of America's

00:18richest self-made women.

00:19Despite gaining popularity for her music, the majority of her overall worth is attributed

00:23to her cosmetics and lingerie companies.

00:25Savage x Fenty is valued at upwards of $3 billion, and Fenty Beauty brought in $550

00:30million in revenue in 2020.

00:33You may remember in 2019 when Kylie Jenner was named the world's youngest self-made

00:36billionaire.

00:37However, that title was quickly stripped away from her when it was determined that her net

00:40worth was in fact, much smaller.

00:42Forbes made a point to emphasize the self-made aspect of Rihanna's fortune, something that
