12. Beyoncé: $355M, Destiny’s Child
Beyoncé’s evolution from Destiny’s Child member to solo superstar represents one of music’s greatest success stories. The Houston native has won 32 Grammy Awards—the most of any artist in history—and her visual albums like Lemonade have redefined how artists present their work. Her 2018 Coachella performance, later documented in Homecoming, became a cultural moment celebrating Black excellence and HBCU traditions.
Despite being one of the most photographed women globally, Beyoncé rarely appears without makeup in public, making her natural appearance somewhat mysterious. However, leaked makeup-free photos over the years reveal flawless skin with an even tone and minimal imperfections. She’s discussed her plant-based diet adopted before major performances and her dedication to fitness, working with personal trainers for intense cardio and strength sessions. Her skincare routine reportedly includes regular professional treatments and high-end products. When she does share bare-faced moments, fans are reminded that her beauty stems from genetic blessings, disciplined self-care, and confidence that radiates from within. She’s set a standard for excellence that extends beyond her music into every aspect of her presentation, proving that taking care of yourself creates beauty that requires minimal enhancement.
