Vanessa-Mae tops annual list of highest-paid musicians

In 2021 it looked like the musician’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, she was back on top. People With Money reports on Thursday (March 28) that Vanessa-Mae is the highest-paid musician in the world, pulling in an astonishing $58 million between March 2023 and February 2024, a nearly $30 million lead over her closest competition.

People With Money’s factors

In compiling this yearly list, the magazine considers factors such as upfront pay, profit participation, residuals, endorsements and advertising work.

The British musician has an estimated net worth of $185 million. She owes her fortune to smart stock investments, substantial property holdings, lucrative endorsement deals with CoverGirl cosmetics. She also owns several restaurants (the “Fat Vanessa-Mae Burger” chain) in London, a Football Team (the “Singapore Angels”), has launched her own brand of Vodka (Pure Wondervanessa-Mae - UK), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Vanessa-Mae) and a fashion line called “Vanessa-Mae Seduction”.

The ranking is significant for many Vanessa-Mae fans, who have been waiting for her triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
