American pop star, Selena Gomez is now a billionaire, according to Bloomberg’s Billionaires Index.
The actress, singer and entrepreneur amassed an estimated $1.3 billion fortune from her Rare Beauty brand to music and hit shows.

Brand partnerships, acting deals and mental-health startups also contributed to her wealth.
Gomez came into the spotlight as a child star in the 2000s. She reportedly made around $3 million for her role as Alex Russo in the Disney Channel’s Wizards of Waverly Place from 2007 to 2012.
