While most of us have no plenty of tears left to cry after looking at our bank accounts, Ariana Grande has a balance even higher than her ponytail. Which, as we all know, is high AF.

Ariana is flirty, thirty, thriving, and worth millions of dollars—and not just thanks to her music. She’s also enjoyed a lucrative career as a Nickelodeon actress, plus that iconic stint on Scream Queens, and has scored a slew of impressive endorsement deals. Not to mention, her break in the beauty industry with her well-loved fragrances and makeup line only makes her wallets fatter. Here’s a breakdown of Ari’s assets to make you equal parts jealous, impressed, and weepy.

She Made Bank on Nickelodeon’s Victorious

Of the 57 episodes of Victorious that Ariana appeared in between 2010 and 2013, how many did you see? TMZ got ahold of her contract, so we know she made $9,000 per episode in the first season alone. She also pocketed about $7.5K for music used in the show, like this undeniable *bop* that I’m still streaming a decade later:

Assuming her salary stayed at $9K/episode (TBH, it would be sort of surprising if she never got a raise), our calculator tells us she made $513,000 just from Victorious. That’s more than half a million dollars! Ariana was also on a season of Sam & Cat, as well as the first season of Scream Queens, although her income from those bad boys isn’t readily available for nosy peeps on the internet. Sad.

Ariana is back in her acting bag and is starring as Glinda the Good Witch in the film adaptation of Wicked. So, needless to say, Ari will likely be paid a ginormous amount for her role in the movie—as she should!

She Cashed a Nice Check From The Voice, Too

Ariana was a coach on season 21 of NBC’s The Voice and it was truly a moment in time. While it was definitely fun for viewers to watch, Ari undoubtedly had the best time because she was estimated to bring home up to $25 million from the show. FYI, this is about $10 million more than what Kelly Clarkson (!!!!) got when she joined the judges’ panel. Casual!

Her Concert Sales Are the Opposite of Shabby

Ariana’s 2017 Dangerous Woman tour spanned five continents and ended up grossing a casual $71 million in just seven months. OH, and apparently, she was making “over $50,000 in merchandise every night” on top of that. Shout-out to all the people who waited in endlessly long lines to buy tees with bunny ears on them!

The singer’s 2015 Honeymoon tour made $40 million during an eight-month run—which, again, ain’t too shabby. But it’s her Sweetener World Tour that really made bank. According to Billboard, it grossed $106.9 million in the U.S. alone, with a worldwide total of $243.5 million. 😱

Oh, and remember when she headlined Coachella in 2019? Not only did she make history by being the youngest person to ever headline the festival at 25 years old, but she also reportedly made $8 million off the gig, too.

She’s Made a $hit Ton on Her Singles

Hits like “Thank U, Next” and “Side to Side” helped Ariana rake in bucketloads of money. Specifically, $29.5 million from single downloads as of 2018. In other words, more money than most of us will see in our lifetimes! It’s fine! Totally not having a meltdown about my finances! No worries!

She Has Major Endorsement Deals

Like most celebrities, our girl Ari works with brands that pay her $$$ for her endorsements. She was the face of a Givenchy campaign, a gig that presumably earns her some major coin. Aside from that, she’s worked with other major brands, like Coach, Starbucks, T-Mobile, MAC, Reebok, and more.

She’s Becoming a Beauty Maven

Ariana has also walked in the illustrious footsteps of celebs like Britney Spears and Paris Hilton by releasing her own line of perfumes, which reportedly grossed $150 million in 2017, back when she just had three scents. Now, our girl has 10 (!!) fragrances and they have a cult following—aka Ari’s fifth fragrance Cloud sold every 11 seconds in 2021, according to The Zoe Report. To top it all off, Ariana released a body care line during summer 2022 in tandem with her beloved fragrance God Is A Woman.

After success in the fragrance realm, Ari expanded her budding beauty empire with the makeup line r.e.m. beauty, which launched November 2021.

She Was Married, Which Might Have Given Her Net Worth a Lil Bump

Okay, to be clear, Ariana’s own net worth outweighs pretty much everyone else’s, but when she tied the knot with Dalton Gomez, that might’ve given her bank account the teeniest-tiniest of bumps. Dalton’s net worth is reportedly $20 million, so depending on their prenup situation, that may now factor into Ariana’s own fortune.

Ari’s Also Made Some Grande Real Estate Moves

Over the years, Ariana has made major real estate moves—and she’s even sung about them:

The crib in question? Her first real estate purchase in 2018, which was a $16 million swanky Chelsea apartment in New York City where she lived with then-fiancé, Pete Davidson. Two years later, Ari bought a 3-story mansion in the Hollywood Hills but didn’t stay for long as she sold it for $14 million in late 2021.

That same year, she bought another (!!!) home from Ellen Degeneres and Portia de Rossi in Montecito, where she and Dalton Gomez got married. More real estate moves Ari’s made include a cottage and a $4.9 million Hollywood Hills property she bought from Cameron Diaz. In conclusion, Ari was probably like:

So, What’s Ariana Grande’s Net Worth in 2023?

According to Celebrity Net Worth, that would be about $240 million—which is waaay up from the $180 million to her name in 2021. And while this hefty chunk of change might sound small compared to Taylor Swift’s or Katy Perry’s net worth, you gotta remember things like taxes, overhead, and the fact that Ariana herself takes home only a portion of what her music, merch, and products actually gross.

Regardless, $240 million is a LOT of money, so I’m gonna be over here in the corner pulling a Dawson:
