American singer and songwriter, Taylor Swift marks the Forbes’ 5th most powerful woman in the world. Check out the full list below.

Officially, the “Blank Space” singer is the world’s fifth most powerful woman, outpacing Beyoncé and Rihanna on Forbes‘ annual ranking. Making her highest-ever position to date on the 2023 list, the “Anti-Hero” singer is the top-ranking musician on the tally.

Overall, she’s only bested by European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen at No. 1, European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde at No. 2, United States Vice President Kamala Harris at No. 3, and Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni at No. 4.

Meanwhile, Taylor Swift became a billionaire in October 2023, thanks to the earnings from her Eras tour and the value of her music catalog, and is the first musician to make the ranks solely based on her songs and performances.

In 2021, Swift began releasing re-records of her first six albums to regain their ownership rights. Her fortune includes more than $500 million in estimated wealth amassed from royalties and touring, plus a music catalog worth $500 million and some $125 million in real estate.

“As ever, the 2023 Power List was determined by four main metrics: money, media, impact and spheres of influence,” wrote the publication. “Media mentions and social reach were analyzed for all. The result: 100 women who are shaping the policies, products and political fights that define our world.”
