Sinclair 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 Thursday (March 6) that Sinclair is the highest-paid singer in the world, pulling in an astonishing $96 million between February 2024 and February 2025, a nearly $60 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 French singer-songwriter-musician has an estimated net worth of $275 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 Sinclair Burger” chain) in Paris, a Football Team (the “Tours Angels”), has launched his own brand of Vodka (Pure Wondersinclair - France), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Sinclair) and a fashion line called “Sinclair Seduction”.

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