Carole Laure tops annual list of highest-paid singers

In 2022 it looked like the singer’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, she was back on top. People With Money reports on Monday (November 4) that Laure is the highest-paid singer in the world, pulling in an astonishing $82 million between October 2023 and October 2024, a nearly $50 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 singer-actress-director-screenwriter-producer has an estimated net worth of $245 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 Laure Burger” chain) in Quebec City, a Football Team (the “Shawinigan Angels”), has launched her own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderlaure - Quebec), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Carole) and a fashion line called “Carole Laure Seduction”.

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