00:10 The "Don't Speak" singer has amassed millions through her singing career, brand
00:14 deals, and other businesses.
00:15 And Stefani doesn't seem to be slowing down anytime soon regarding her work.
00:19 Gwen, 53, first hit the music scene as a member of the band No Doubt, and since then, she
00:24 has danced her way to stardom and millionaire status.
00:27 In recent years, Stefani has been busy growing her brands, seeing as in 2018, she was worth
00:32 $100 million, and now, in 2023, she is worth almost double that amount.
00:37 Thanks to her multiple income streams, Gwen reportedly brings in nearly $60 million annually
00:42 depending on what she's working on.
00:44 Her singing career, fashion line, beauty brand, real estate business, and several other projects
00:50 she does add millions to Gwen Stefani's net worth, with a staggering net worth of $160
00:55 million.
00:56 It's no surprise she is always working to grow her massive fashion and celebrity empire.
01:00 That is when she's not spending quality time with husband, Blake Shelton, and their
01:04 three children.
01:05 Gwen Stefani began her career in the music industry as part of the alternative rock band
01:10 No Doubt.
01:11 The award-winning group's first album didn't garner much buzz but introduced the world
01:15 to their alternative rock sound.
01:16 The band's third album, 1995's Tragic Kingdom, blew everyone away, selling 60 million copies
01:23 worldwide.
01:24 This women's certified album is partially responsible for the first million she ever
01:27 made.
01:28 After the album's success, Stefani and the band went on tour which added more to Gwen
01:32 Stefani's net worth even more.
01:34 Stefani and the band went on a 27-month international tour after the album's success.
01:39 In 2004, after No Doubt's hiatus, most members, including Gwen Stefani, released their solo
01:44 projects.
01:45 Her first album, Love, Angel Music, Baby, L.A.M.B., sold more than 7 million copies
01:51 with one of the singles, "Hollaback Girl," getting to number one on the Billboard 100
01:56 chart.
01:57 The luxurious singer met and worked with countless other artists, released four successful solo
02:01 albums, and won 56 awards including a Grammy and MTV Video Music Awards.
02:06 Gwen's huge fan base and ability to write hit songs earned her millions as an artist,
02:11 significantly growing her net worth.
02:13 Stefani returned to music in 2020 with the song "Let Me Reintroduce Myself" before
02:17 releasing a few tracks between then and 2022, including collaborations with artists seen
02:22 Paul and Shensi.
02:23 In 2023, the singer released a new song, "True Babe," whose sales will go into her vast
02:29 net worth.
02:30 Aside from singing, Gwen Stefani also ventured into the perfume business.
02:33 She began her perfume company, Harajuku Lovers, named after her love for Japanese culture,
02:38 in 2007, and has since released 28 scents still available in stores today.
02:43 Despite the controversy surrounding the brand, it has been around for 18 years, and the scents
02:48 are performing well enough to add to Gwen Stefani's $160 million net worth.
02:53 Gwen Stefani's unique and quirky fashion sense that perfectly describes the early 2000s vibe
02:58 made her a fashion icon.
03:00 She launched her successful fashion line, Ole Mb.
03:03 In 2003, the line was widely successful, even reportedly bringing in $90 million annually
03:09 at one point.
03:10 Ole Mb also expanded to sell shoes, handbags, accessories, glasses, and watches.
03:15 The line's products are still found in stores, meaning Gwen Stefani's net worth gains as
03:19 she earns a good salary from the business.
03:22 Once Gwen Stefani went solo and released hit singles like "Rich Girl" featuring rapper
03:26 Eve, she didn't have to split her earnings with her bandmates.
03:29 Her first tour, 2004's Harajuku Lovers Tour, made $22 million, according to Billboard,
03:35 while her 2007's Sweet Escape Tour, which included 98 shows, grossed over $30 million.
03:41 After paying for venues, equipment, tour staff salaries, and other expenses, Gwen takes home
03:45 most of the earnings as the show's star.
03:48 The Underneath It All singer charges more than six figures to perform at concerts like
03:52 her UK 2023, which saw her perform in different European cities.
03:56 Gwen Stefani's money from her solo career is often invested in property that earns her
04:00 millions in yearly income.
04:02 In 2019, Gwen sold her seven-bedroom Beverly Hills mansion for $21.65 million after divorcing
04:08 her ex-husband, Gavin Rosedale.
04:11 As per Variety, the mansion wasn't the only home she owned.
04:14 The songwriter has a $2 million, $395,000 home in Hancock Park and another mansion in
04:19 West Hollywood.
04:20 Gwen also owns property with Shelton, including an Encino, Los Angeles mansion they bought
04:25 for $13.2 million.
04:27 Plus, they have a $4.3 million ranch in Oklahoma, where they often spend time with her three
04:32 sons.
04:33 Throughout her career, Gwen Stefani has appeared in several beauty and fashion house campaigns
04:37 that have only added to the money in her bank account.
04:39 In 2011, Gwen inked a deal with L'Oreal and featured in several hair and makeup campaigns.
04:44 2017 saw her follow up with a global brand ambassador deal with Revlon.
04:48 Such high-end brands pay top money to have celebrities be the face of their products,
04:53 netting a hefty salary that adds to Gwen Stefani's net worth.
04:56 Gwen Stefani's Las Vegas residency, titled "Just a Girl," Las Vegas significantly
05:00 added to her $160 million net worth.
05:04 During Gwen's first 12 shows, she reportedly earned $5.5 million.
05:08 Her residency, which began in 2018 and ended in 2021, earned her a lot of money, grossing
05:14 an estimated $19.2 million.
05:17 Stefani made so much during her shows in Las Vegas that she has announced new tour dates
05:20 for November 2023.
05:22 If the shows are as successful as her previous ones, Stefani will rake in millions, further
05:27 boosting her financial status.
05:29 Another way Gwen Stefani adds to her massive net worth is through her social media channels.
05:33 The singer's YouTube channel has over 2 million subscribers who constantly watch and
05:37 stream her music, earning her a good amount from the platform.
05:40 The coach's latest single has almost a million views on the site, while her hit song "Hollaback
05:45 Girl" has 270 million views and counting.
05:48 Gwen also receives thousands from sponsored posts on her Instagram, which boasts 17 million
05:52 followers plus.
05:54 One of the most significant ways Gwen Stefani adds to her $160 million net worth is through
05:59 coaching contestants on The Voice.
06:01 When the "Bathwater" singer joined the other celebrity coaches during season 7, she
06:05 was paid $10 million per season.
06:07 From season 12, Stefani negotiated a pay rise to $13 million per season.
06:12 Gwen returned to coach in The Voice seasons 17, 19, and 22, where she was reportedly paid
06:18 more than her earlier salary of $500,000 per episode.
06:22 Additionally, NBC announced Gwen's return to 2023 season 25 alongside John Legend, Ne-Yo
06:28 Horan, and Reba McEntire.
06:30 At least half of Stefani's million-dollar salary from the competition will add to her
06:34 $160 million net worth.
06:36 The success of celebrities like Rihanna, Selena Gomez, and Hailey Bieber inspired Gwen Stefani
06:41 to start her beauty brand.
06:43 In 2022, Stefani launched her line, GVXE Beauty, which includes lipsticks, eyeshadow palettes,
06:49 and eyeliner pencils.
06:50 In July 2023, Gwen filed a trademark for a new beauty product she plans to launch, proving
06:56 GVXE's sales are high enough to introduce a new product, thus adding to Gwen Stefani's
07:00 net worth.
07:01 Gwen Stefani has come a long way in her career and built a million-dollar empire she is proud
07:06 of.
07:07 The award-winning artist's net worth is expected to surpass $160 million as she continues
07:12 to perform at more shows and launch more business-related projects in the fashion and beauty sector.
