When it comes to successful young women in Hollywood, Selena Gomez most definitely tops the list. Following her success as a child star, plus her music and movie careers, the “Lose You to Love Me” singer has amassed a staggering net worth over the years. So, how exactly does Selena earn her cash? Keep reading to find out everything about her net worth, how she makes money and more.

What Is Selena Gomez’s Net Worth?

As of January 2023, the Golden Globe nominee is worth roughly $95 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth.

Selena Gomez’s Music Career

Since coming onto the scene in 2002, Selena has released three solo albums: Stars Dance in 2013, Revival in 2015 and Rare in 2020. Additionally, the Texas native has released a number of beloved singles — including popular songs “Lose You to Love Me” and “Look at Her Now.” Both tracks are believed to be about Selena’s highly publicized relationship (and breakup) with Justin Bieber. Her first-ever Spanish-language EP, Revelación, dropped in 2021.

Is Selena Gomez Releasing a New Album?

The Spring Breakers actress has teased new music multiple times since the release of Rare and Revelación. During a December 2022 appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Selena revealed if she would be dropping new tunes after the release of her single, “My Mind & Me” – which also serves as the title of her intimate documentary exploring her life in the spotlight, mental health and more. The doc premiered on Apple+ in November that same year.

“That’s accurate,” she responded after host Jimmy Fallon asked if she would be releasing more bops in the future, adding, “I’m so used to writing sad-girl songs. But I’m ready to have some fun and I think people are going to like it.”

As far as when fans can expect a new album, Selena told the Saturday Night Live alum, “Hopefully next year.”

While speaking with Apple Music’s Zane Lowe the previous month, the former Disney darling opened up about what fans can expect from the forthcoming album. “To be honest, I’m now telling stories that people don’t know. People I’ve dated that people don’t know,” she told Zane. “Experiences I’ve had that people don’t know. I’ve created this private life that’s just mine.”

Additionally, after a fan commented on a January 2023 Instagram post asking, “Where is the album,” Selena simply replied, “Oh, it’s coming…”

That same month, Us Weekly broke the news that Selena and The Chainsmokers DJ Alex Taggart were dating, leading fans to wonder whether the pair will collaborate on new music in the near future.

Selena Gomez Movies and TV Shows

As many millennials know, Selena actually got her start as an actress. In fact, her first acting credit was an episode of Barney & Friends in 2003! Selena went on to appear in a number of Disney Channel childhood classics like The Suite Life of Zack & Cody, Hannah Montana and of course, Wizards of Waverly Place, before landing roles in Another Cinderella Story opposite Jane Lynch and Drew Seeley, Princess Protection Program alongside Demi Lovato and Ramona and Beezus.

As she got older, Selena went on to take more serious and adult roles, including Spring Breakers, Neighbors 2, The Fundamentals of Caring and The Dead Don’t Die. She is currently starring in the Hulu series Only Murders in the Building alongside veteran actors Steve Martin and Martin Short.

Not only was Selena nominated for a 2023 Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actress for her role in the wildly popular series, but the show was also renewed for a third season in January 2023, with legendary actress Meryl Streep signing on for the latest installment.

In addition to her many acting roles, the “Love You Like a Love Song” singer is also a talented voice actor, lending her vocals to animated films like the Hotel Transylvania franchise, Horton Hears a Who! and Doolittle. Selena has also starred on HBO’s Selena + Chef since its network premiere in August 2020. The series wrapped its fourth season in August 2022.

Beyond acting, Selena was one of the executive producers for 13 Reasons Why on Netflix, and also has producer credits on Selena + Chef, Only Murders in the Building, Hotel Transylvania 4 and The Wizards Return: Alex vs. Alex.

Selena Gomez Brand Deals and Business Ventures

Just like most celebrities in Hollywood, Selena makes some of her money from brand deals. In 2019, the singer partnered with Puma for her own line of activewear and was an ambassador for Coach.

The Texas native also started her own beauty brand, Rare Beauty, in September 2020. The company’s website claims they are dedicated to “breaking down unrealistic standards of perfection” and they also donate one percent of sales to “support mental health,” according to their official Instagram bio — but considering the brand has 3.6 million Instagram followers, it’s clear Selena sees a pretty profit from the sales.
