7. Beyoncé

According to Forbes, Beyoncé is the 76th most powerful woman in the world and the 7th most powerful Black woman. She first rose to fame as the lead singer in girl-group Destiny’s Child. She is now a business mogul with a net worth of $400 million, according to Forbes.

Beyonce’s On The Run II stadium tour with husband Jay-Z grossed roughly $5 million per night, pulling in a total of more than $250 million, according to Forbes.

In April 2019, the pop star released ‘Homecoming,’ a live album and Netflix special about her groundbreaking 2018 performance at Coachella and in the same month she announced a new partnership with Adidas to relaunch her active wear line Ivy Park.

Aside from music, Beyonce is also a prolific investor. She recently announced that she was investing in a hemp farm to obtain her own CBD.

She also has a partnership with Adidas. The music icon further has a streaming music service and serves as a spokesmodel for L’Oreal. She also promotes Pepsi and is into film production.
