Madonna's half-billion-plus net worth has earned her a spot on our list of America's Richest Self-Made Women, which appears in the June 30th, 2016 issue of FORBES magazine. She ranks No. 25, behind moguls such as Oprah Winfrey and Tory Burch.

Summary:
The aptly-named Material Girl is the wealthiest woman in the music business—and she’s still going strong. Her recently-wrapped Rebel Heart tour grossed $170 million, adding to her whopping career total: an estimated $1.4 billion on the road alone. The latest cash infusion adds to a fortune already rich with royalties and the rising value of her real estate portfolio, which includes an outrageously large townhouse on Manhattan's Upper East Side purchased at the bottom of the market, as well as a fine art collection reportedly featuring the likes of Pablo Picasso, Frida Kahlo and Man Ray.
