The breakup of Destiny’s Child led Beyonce to Jay- Z , with whom she collaborated on her first solo album, Dangerously in Love. Jay-Z and Beyonce got married in 2008.

After getting married, Beyonce earned up to 80 million USD. The famous couple built their fortune with a clear path. Beyonce mainly focuses on recording and performing on music tours, while Jay-Z builds his own empire with his music and financial investment company. Beyonce quickly surpassed Madonna and Celine Dion to become the highest-paid singer in the music industry.

Beyonce has held five tours in her career and all of them were successful in terms of sales. In 2009, her world tour I Am… Sasha Fierce sold 119 million USD in tickets. She performed across continents with more than 100 performances. A year later, Beyonce continued to appear on Forbes’ list of “Highest-paid stars under 30”, when she earned $35 million thanks to her fashion brand and advertising contracts.

During the period from 2009 to 2011, Beyonce pocketed an average of 70 million USD per year. She continued to earn $40 million in 2012 when she released her next album. Her income leap occurred in 2014, when Beyonce led the Top 100 highest-earning stars with $115 million. This success is thanks to two consecutive tours in 2013 and 2014, The Mrs. Carter Show World Tour and On the Run Tour. Billboard reports that Beyonce earned nearly 400 million USD in ticket revenue. Her most recent tour, the Formation World Tour in 2016, also reached the milestone of 256 million USD.

In addition to regular tours, Beyonce focuses on releasing albums about every two years. Record sales and online music releases skyrocketed. According to Billboard, as of 2016, Beyonce sold about 17.2 million albums. On average, each album sells from one to three million copies. Dangerously in Love released up to 5 million records.

Beyonce also cooperates with her mother, Tina Knowles, to run a fashion business. She owns the clothing brand House of Dereon and shoes brand House of Brands. The 36-year-old singer also has her own perfume line called Beyoncé Heat, which is very popular.
