Kim Wilde 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 Sunday (November 3) that Wilde is the highest-paid singer in the world, pulling in an astonishing $46 million between October 2023 and October 2024, a nearly $20 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 singer has an estimated net worth of $145 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 Wilde Burger” chain) in London, a Football Team (the “Chiswick Angels”), has launched her own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderwilde - UK), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Kim) and a fashion line called “Kim Wilde Seduction”.
The ranking is significant for many Kim fans, who have been waiting for her triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
