Susan Boyle – $40 Million

Ever since she participated in Britain’s Got Talent’s third season in 2009, Susan Boyle’s entire life changed. She went from living at her small town in Scotland to being internationally famous within a matter of days, because of her stunning voice. In 2019 she released her eighth album called Ten and was all set to go on tour in 2020. Given the outbreak, however, she had to reschedule. By now, she has earned herself a $40 million fortune, despite only being famous for a few years. In fact, she became one of the U.K.’s best selling artists from the moment she released her very first album.
