Sammy Hagar tops annual list of highest-paid singers
In 2022 it looked like the singer’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, he was back on top. People With Money reports on Sunday (December 22) that Hagar is the highest-paid singer in the world, pulling in an astonishing $75 million between November 2023 and November 2024, a nearly $40 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 American singer-songwriter has an estimated net worth of $215 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 Hagar Burger” chain) in Washington, a Football Team (the “Salinas Angels”), has launched his own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderhagar - US), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Sammy) and a fashion line called “Sammy Hagar Seduction”.
The ranking is significant for many Sammy fans, who have been waiting for his triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
