Yahoo Lifestyle Selena Gomez Is Reportedly A Billionaire Now, And The Internet Had Some Interesting Reactions
It sounds like Selena Gomez might have a reason to celebrate — in a very expensive way, no less.
According to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, the multi-hyphenate is allegedly worth a whopping $1.3 billion now. That's a lot of greenbacks.
Obviously, if you've kept tabs on Selena's career, you know she's got a lot of irons in the fire when it comes to side hustles — including her Rare Beauty brand, which she allegedly has 81% of her money involved in.
Billionaires are a touchy subject these days, which makes sense — when it comes to money and finance, it really is hard out here, man. So of course, the internet had mixed opinions on these reports:
selena gomez went from poverty to be a self made billionaire, she has been working since she was 7 truly a woman that deserves to be admired

Selena Gomez always does projects that make an impact on society. She uses her resources on rare beauty to help with mental health. Her cooking show donated over $500k to different organizations. She has a company focused on mental health care. And yet she is a billionaire WOW. https://t.co/O5urvygbZn

Some even drew comparisons that felt, uh, a little unnecessary:
Selena Gomez is a billionaire. Taylor Swift is a billionaire. You know who's not a billionaire? One convicted felon former president, Donald "I'm heading to prison" Trump.

Others pointed out that, these days, being a billionaire is nothing to be proud of:
Why do people say billionaires are bad then when Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez become billionaires it’s suddenly ‘you go girl!’
