You know how you keep spending your money on Billie Eilish merch (how many Happier Than Ever socks are too many, asking for myself)? Well, Billie is busy being a multimillionaire at age 19. Between her Grammy-winning music, a legitimately wild deal with Apple, a partnership with Gucci, and a completely sold-out perfume, Billie is on her way to being one of the wealthiest celebs lurking around Hollywood. Here’s a breakdown of her net worth, don’t tell your bank account.
HER STREAMING SALES ARE THROUGH THE ROOOOOF
According to RIAA, Billie has made $41.5 million (Dhs152 million) in digital singles—even more than your college boyfriend’s favourite band the Chainsmokers. On that note, join me in listening to “Bad Guy” for the millionth time.
APPLE PAID $25 MILLION FOR A DOC ABOUT HER LIFE
Pretty sure I’d have to pay Apple to let me make a documentary about my life, so congrats to Billie.
SHE MADE MORE THAN $50 MILLION IN JUST ONE YEAR
According to Forbes, Billie has earned $53 million (Dhs194 million) in the past year. Half of that was thanks to the Apple doc, and the other half was thanks to music sales. Cool-cool-cool, same!
YEAH, SHE DOES BRAND ENDORSEMENTS
You’re not going to find Billie posing on her bed with a bedazzled bottle of Febreze like Khloé Kardashian (lolllll, still funny), but she does work with mainstream brands. Case in point: her Calvins—
And her new Gucci nail stickers!
AND SHE HAS HER OWN LINE OF MERCH
I can’t be the only one who’s about to throw down for this puzzle, right?
HER PERFUME LINE FULLY SOLD OUT
And presumably made a ton of money. Exact figures aren’t known, but WWD reported that the perfume was expected to bring home $60 million(Dhs220 million) in sales for its first year on the market (and more is coming soon).
SO, WHAT’S HER TOTAL NET WORTH?
That’d be $30 million (Dhs110 million), according to Celebrity Net Worth, which, NBD, is about $5 million (Dhs18 million) more than it was in summer 2020. If you’re currently confused considering she made $50 million (Dhs183 million) in one year—don’t forget about how high Billie’s money taxes must be and how high her expenses presumably are. Anyway, if you need me, I’ll be here using my friend’s ex’s mom’s Netflix log-in.
