Selena Gomez has been working since she was a kid, meaning while the rest of us were playing with Pogs and Beanie Babies, she was out here getting paid to hang with Barney. Since her formative years as a Disney darling, the Emilia Pérez star has appeared in multiple big-budget films, dropped record-breaking albums, and starred in critically acclaimed shows—including Only Murders in the Building. So, yep. She’s made a lot of $$$. Like, billionaire-levels of mooolah.

Here’s a breakdown of where all her money comes from, and please be advised that you simply are not ready!!!!!!!!!!

How Much Did Selena Make for Disney’s Wizards of Waverly Place?

Again, Selena’s been out here collecting paychecks since she was a child. Aside from being on Barney and Friends alongside Demi Lovato, she's had parts in The Suite Life of Zack & Cody, *and* Hannah Montana. But her breakout role was obviously in Wizards of Waverly Place, where Sel was paid $30,000 per episode. The show aired 106 episodes total, meaning Selena made more than $3 million.

How Much Does Selena Make for Only Murders in the Building?

According to a 2021 Variety report, Sel’s costars Martin Short and Steve Martin each earn $600,000 per episode, so it seems fair to assume that Selena got at least that much. (Side note while we’re here: Selena is also a producer on this show and earns money through her production company, July Moon Productions. Never forget she was the brains behind 13 Reasons Why!)

Oh, and now that the show is about to return for a fifth season (!!!), we can def expect to see her total $$$ climb yet again.

How Much Has Selena Made Through Music?

Um...a lot! TBD when it comes to record-by-record sales, but according to Celebrity Net Worth, her net worth broke $10 million in April 2013, thanks to the release of her debut solo album. She’s also made a huge amount of money from touring—Sel’s Stars Dance Tonight Tour earned $35.3 million, and the Revival Tour earned $35.6 million.

And while she’s not planning on going on tour for her latest album with fiancé Benny Blanco, I Said I Love You First, I imagine that new music is still earning her plenty of coin.

How Much Has Selena Made from Rare Beauty?

Rare Beauty celebrated its five-year anniversary in January 2025, and to say it's still crushing it is a serious understatement. Within its first year of launching, the company generated $60 million in revenue, and in the time since, influencers everywhere have been lauding its incredible products (looking @ you, creamy liquid blushes!) and cruelty-free mission.

Oh, and as of September 2024, Sel is valued at a whopping $1.3 billion, with a big chunk of that total being thanks to her Rare Beauty empire, according to Bloomberg. This means the celeb is now officially ranked on the outlet's Billionaires Index for the very first time. Congrats, Sel!!!

How Much Does Selena Make Per Instagram Post?

As one of the most popular people on Instagram clocking in at 417 million followers, Selena takes home a huge fee per sponsored post. And according to the annual Instagram Rich List, that number is around $2,560,000. Celebrity Net Worth also reports that Sel’s net worth topped $18 million back in 2015 thanks to her success on Insta.

How Much Does Selena Make From Brand Partnerships?

Instagram can make a lot, but the real money comes when a fancy brand decides they want you to be their ~face~. And Selena’s net worth skyrocketed when Coach paid her $10 million to work with them in 2016...and then Puma paid her $30 million for a two-year deal in 2017. Thanks to these deals + her music + her acting roles, her net worth reached a reported $60 million by 2018.

So, What Is Selena Gomez’s Total Net Worth in 2025?

Celebrity Net Worth says it's a whopping $1 billion, but (!!!) keep in mind Bloomberg's even more current $1.3 billion figure. Obvi, these massive numbers are likely thanks to Rare Beauty and the hugely successful multiple seasons of Only Murders in the Building being out in the world. Plus, there's the fact that Sel's recently been on the music charts yet again.

Sel opened up about her billionaire status during an interview with Entertainment Tonight at the premiere of Emilia Pérez in September 2024, saying, "I’m very grateful." However, she went on to add, "I personally think it’s distasteful to talk about money, but I really am giving all the credit to people who buy the [Rare Beauty] products. They’re the ones that made this dream of mine come true, so I’m really, really honored and just happy."

TL;DR: It's an amazing time to be a Selenator!
