Nelly Furtado | Actress and Singer | $35 Million

Nelly Furtado’s debut album Whoa, Nelly! helped the singer gain widespread popularity and commercial success. Two of the singles in the album did not only hit top spots on the charts but also brought her a Grammy Award. Her follow-up releases didn’t disappoint either! Her four studio albums managed to reach Platinum or Gold status worldwide, selling over 40 million copies in the process. We don’t doubt that she’s certainly feeling very much like a bird—flying high when it comes to success and wealth.

Despite turning down various big-ticket offers, including a $500,000 offer from a magazine company, Nelly still managed to earn a $20-million net worth. These days, she is living a more low-profile life in an exclusive neighborhood of Toronto without worrying about mortgage. Although just also quite recently, the singer bought an apartment in New York City and announced that she splits her time between both locations.
