Rihanna and her Fenty line of beauty products keep racking in the dough. She is now officially a billionaire, joining a lavish list of well known pop culture royalty.

RiRi is currently the second richest female entertainer behind Oprah herself. That’s not bad at all if Oprah is the only person ahead of you in line. After Forbes’ report came out about Rihanna’s new financial milestone, plenty of people took notice.

The 33-years-old pop icon was swarmed by photographer, asking any number of questions. When asked how it feels to be a self-made billionaire, RiRi humbly replied:

God is good.

Rihanna kept walking and did not elaborate, but her point was very clear. Faith in herself and a higher power might have helped take RiRi to that amazing level of fame and success she has achieved.

Her fans reacted to praise their favorite singer, the richest female singer on earth. A majority of her wealth comes from that Fenty beauty line, as she owns half of the $2.8 billion company, but that money is still very green for Rihanna.

Years of experience in writing, journalism, and digging exclusive insider info for Ringside News opened the door for a new opportunity for Jenkins. With a history in finance, he broke into the journalism game by writing on blogs and other freelance websites before branching into sports and entertainment news. Being in tune with pop culture doesn't mean it has to make sense, but he tries. Favorite bands include any group from Seattle who formed between 1991 and 1999. 5 Ozzfests under his belt and 12 Warped Tours, but his last concert was a bluegrass AC/DC cover band that was not 100% terrible.
