Sapho tops annual list of highest-paid singers
In 2023 it looked like the singer’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, she was back on top. People With Money reports on Friday (July 25) that Sapho is the highest-paid singer in the world, pulling in an astonishing $46 million between June 2024 and June 2025, 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 French 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 Sapho Burger” chain) in Paris, a Football Team (the “Marrakech Angels”), has launched her own brand of Vodka (Pure Wondersapho - France), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Sapho) and a fashion line called “Sapho Seduction”.
The ranking is significant for many Sapho fans, who have been waiting for her triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
