Thanks to the success of her ultra-popular beauty brand, Rare Beauty, the multitalented star has joined the ranks of some of the youngest women to ever achieve billionaire status.

<a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/selena-gomez-boyfriend-benny-blanco-dating-relationship-timeline" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Selena Gomez</a> has worn many hats in the entertainment industry, from a beloved actress to a record-breaking pop star and even a celebrity chef on TV, but she has also gained quite a reputation for her makeup brand, Rare Beauty. Though you might know her best these days from her starring role on the Emmy-nominated show <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/film-tv/who-are-the-only-murders-in-the-building-season-4-guest-stars" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Only Murders in the Building</a>, Gomez is no stranger to the business world. Her success with Rare Beauty helped her to hit yet another career milestone recently, with the announcement that Gomez is officially a billionaire.
<a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/selena-gomez-rare-beauty-powder-blush-shimmer" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Rare Beauty</a> has become one of the best-selling makeup brands in Sephora, and it has been valued at $2 billion. Even with the brand's financial wins, Gomez has been committed to using Rare Beauty as a way to give back too. The Rare Impact Fund uses a percentage of all Rare Beauty sales towards helping young people have access to mental health care.&nbsp;
<a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-09-06/selena-gomez-is-a-billionaire-after-rare-beauty-success-exclusive?embedded-checkout=true" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bloomberg</a> reported on September 6 that Selena Gomez's net worth is valued at $1.3 billion now, making this the first time she has been included on Bloomberg's Billionaires index. At just 32 years old, this news has Gomez joining the ranks of a select few women who have also become billionaires at such a young age. Notably, one of Gomez's best friends, <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/taylor-swift-charitable-donations-eras-tour-food-banks" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Taylor Swift,</a> was also declared a billionaire earlier this year at 34 years old by Forbes, boasting a net worth of $1.1 billion. Other celebrity billionaires include <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/rihanna-new-face-of-dior-j-adore-fragrance-fenty-beauty-perfume" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Rihanna</a>, Kim Kardashian, and Oprah Winfrey.

Of course, Rare Beauty isn't the sole reason for Gomez's new status as a billionaire. The increase in <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/selena-gomez-birthday-beauty-looks" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Selena Gomez</a>'s net worth is attributed to several different things, according to <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-09-06/selena-gomez-is-a-billionaire-after-rare-beauty-success-exclusive?embedded-checkout=true" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bloomberg's</a> article, including her vast social media following. Gomez has held the title of the most-followed person on Instagram on and off for several years, and this large audience has led to a chance to secure multi-million dollar deals with brands that want to sponsor her.&nbsp;
Regardless of the vast amount of success Gomez has found from working across art forms and trying different business ideas, financial gains were never the goal for her. In a recent profile with <a href="https://time.com/6979619/rare-beauty/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">TIME</a>, she said, "I have this weird thing in my head where if I focus on the numbers, I&rsquo;ll lose whatever it is that made Rare Beauty Rare Beauty...I never wanted it to be about making a lot of money and that&rsquo;s it.&rdquo;
