Jakie Quartz 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 Saturday (May 3) that Quartz is the highest-paid singer in the world, pulling in an astonishing $58 million between April 2024 and April 2025, 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 French singer 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 Quartz Burger” chain) in Paris, a Football Team (the “Paris Angels”), has launched her own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderquartz - France), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Jakie) and a fashion line called “Jakie Quartz Seduction”.

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