Bertrand Cantat tops annual list of highest-paid singers
In 2021 it looked like the singer’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, he was back on top. People With Money reports on Friday (April 19) that Cantat is the highest-paid singer in the world, pulling in an astonishing $58 million between March 2023 and March 2024, a nearly $30 million lead over his 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 French singer-songwriter has an estimated net worth of $185 million. He owes his fortune to smart stock investments, substantial property holdings, lucrative endorsement deals with CoverGirl cosmetics. He also owns several restaurants (the “Fat Cantat Burger” chain) in Paris, a Football Team (the “Pau Angels”), has launched his own brand of Vodka (Pure Wondercantat - France), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Bertrand) and a fashion line called “Bertrand Cantat Seduction”.
The ranking is significant for many Bertrand fans, who have been waiting for his triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
