Selena Gomez Opens Up About Her Billionaire Status For The Very First Time

Buy Me A Coffee

Selena Gomez just strutted her way into the billionaire club, and no, it’s not because she found a stash of treasure buried in her backyard. The 32-year-old superstar made waves at the New York City premiere of her latest flick, Emilia Perez, on September 30, and let’s just say, she was dressed to impress—probably because she’s got a billion reasons to celebrate!

As she sashayed down the red carpet, a reporter had the audacity to ask her about her newly minted billionaire status. I mean, who wouldn’t want to chat about their bank balance when it’s as heavy as a toddler who just had a sugar rush? Selena, however, played it cool. She’s not one to flaunt her financial prowess like a peacock in a parade.

Earlier this year, the Bloomberg Billionaires Index revealed that Selena’s bank account is sitting pretty at a whopping $1.3 billion! And how did she get there? Well, it turns out her beauty brand, Rare Beauty, is more successful than a cat video going viral! Who knew lip gloss could pay the bills and fund a yacht or two?

So, what pearls of wisdom did Selena drop on the red carpet? “I’m very grateful,” she said, looking as humble as a kid who just got a participation trophy. “I personally think it’s distasteful to talk about money, but I really am giving all the credit to people who buy the products. They’re the ones that made this dream of mine come true, so I’m really, really honored and just happy.” Aww, bless her heart! She’s like the Santa Claus of beauty products, spreading joy and gloss one lipstick at a time.

In previous chats, Selena has spilled the beans about her aversion to counting her coins. “I have this weird thing in my head where if I focus on the numbers, I’ll lose whatever it is that made Rare Beauty Rare Beauty,” she told Time. It’s like she believes that staring at her bank account will turn her into a greedy dragon hoarding gold! “I never wanted it to be about making a lot of money and that’s it.”

While most of us are busy budgeting our grocery lists, Selena is floating in a sea of cash, but she’d rather keep her feet on the ground and her heart in the beauty game. Here’s hoping she keeps those fabulous products coming—because we could all use a little Rare Beauty in our lives!
