Beyonce was born into a not-so-well-off family, with a mother who is a hairdresser and a father who is a salesman. Beyonce began showing her performing talent at the age of 4 and participated in many talent contests.

When she was 13 years old, Beyonce’s father decided to quit his sales job to become the manager of his daughter’s teenage music group, pushing the family into financial ruin. Because of that, her parents quarreled and divorced, causing Beyonce to suffer a big psychological shock.

However, thanks to Beyonce’s natural talent, her father’s decision to break up the family paid off handsomely.

In 21 years of artistic activity, Beyonce has gradually become the most successful female vocalist in modern American music with 22 Grammy Awards wins out of 63 nominations.

By 2014, Beyonce was announced by Forbes magazine as the most powerful star in the world, surpassing even Oprah Winfrey. Also according to this prestigious magazine, Beyonce’s assets are estimated to be up to 355 million dollars (about more than 8,000 billion VND).

In 2017 alone, the black beauty earned 60 million dollars, making her the star with the highest salary in the world last year.

This huge amount of money comes from launching new music products, going on tours and working as a model to represent the brand. Her Formation tour grossed $250 million in ticket sales worldwide.

She started her career as a member of the band Destiny’s Child, but when the group disbanded and Beyonce went solo, she became more and more successful and her salary became higher and higher.

Currently, if a program or music festival wants to feature Beyonce, the organizer must agree to spend about 3 million dollars (70 billion VND) for each performance. If Beyonce and her husband perform a duet together, the salary must be up to 5 million.

Besides making money through her singing talent, Beyonce is also a cool businessman. She was once in the top 53 richest self-made female billionaires in the world voted by Forbes magazine.

Beyonce and her husband JayZ own an online music streaming brand called Tidal that is doing quite well. The Tidal company is currently worth about $600 million.

Beyonce also owns her own perfume line Beyonce Heat, earning $400 million in sales of millions of perfume bottles bearing her name. Leading brands including Pepsi are not afraid to spend up to 50 million dollars to invite Beyonce to be their representative.

Luxurious life, spending hundreds of billions to pamper children

Beyonce married talented rapper Jay-Z after 6 long years of dating. This marriage not only turned Beyonce and Jay-Z into an extremely powerful tycoon and tycoon couple, but also multiplied their common fortune.

Extremely wealthy, Beyonce’s family also has a luxurious lifestyle that makes anyone crave.

Owning many properties scattered across the United States, the house that the couple loves the most and stays in most often is a beachfront villa in the Hamptons worth $26 million. Before buying this villa, the couple rented many houses in this area for about 400,000 to 500,000 dollars a month.

Just last year, Beyonce and her husband bought another super mansion for $88 million. This is a high-class architectural complex of 3,000 square meters with 6 glass-paneled sides. This house is so large that it has 4 outdoor swimming pools, a basketball court, a private spa for beauty treatments and a 15-car garage.

The married life of the super-rich couple is of course also more lavish than ordinary people. Beyonce often gives her husband valuable gifts even though her husband is no less wealthy.

On Jay-Z’s 41st birthday, Beyonce gave him a $2 million Buggati Veyron. On another occasion, she gave her husband a private jet worth $40 million. After her first daughter Blue Ivy was born, Beyonce’s anniversary gift to her husband was a sapphire ring worth $500,000.

Responding to his wife’s feelings, Jay-Z bought Beyonce a special gift. Not branded clothes, diamond jewelry or expensive trips, Jay-Z gave his wife a private island in the Bahamas for the couple to enjoy endless honeymoon days.

This gift that only the super rich give each other costs up to 20 million dollars of Jay-Z’s fortune.

Having a lot of money, Beyonce and Jay-Z are very liberal in spending on their children. For example, Beyonce and her husband spent $200,000 just for their daughter’s first birthday, $11,000 just for her prom dress, and $80,000 for a diamond doll for her.

In order for the two children to be able to take care of their children, Beyoncé and her husband hired up to 8 nannies. The two newly born twins each have 3 nannies to look after them, working in 8-hour shifts to ensure there is never a moment when the babies are unattended.

The salary of nannies is something that shocks others. Each person is paid up to 100,000 USD a year (equivalent to nearly 2.5 billion VND). So just to hire a nanny for two newly born children, Queen Bee Beyonce and her husband Jay-Z do not hesitate to spend up to 600,000 USD (equivalent to more than 13.6 billion VND) per year.

The eldest child, Blue Ivy, who is 6 years old, also has 2 nannies to take care of her. In total, the singer’s family currently has up to 8 nannies who take turns being on duty day and night.

Beyoncé even went so far as to copyright her two children’s names: Rumi Carter and Sir Carter so that no one could name her child the same name.
