You don’t have to call him lieutenant, Rosie. But you have to call Bruce Springsteen a billionaire, according to Forbes.
Forbes estimates The Boss is now worth $1.1 billion, which the outlet calls a “conservative” estimate.
Springsteen earned the bulk of his wealth by selling his music catalog to Sony in 2021 for an estimated $500 million to $550 million.
Two years later, Pollstar reports Springsteen’s world tour generated nearly $380 million in ticket revenue, with more than 3.4 million tickets sold.
Springsteen has sold 140 million albums globally with his 21 studio albums, seven live albums, and five EPs. He’s won 20 Grammy Awards and is in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Songwriters Hall of Fame. He also accepted the Kennedy Center Honors in 2009 and Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2016.
In addition to his catalog and tour revenue, Springsteen held a pair of residencies on Broadway, running for 267 shows and taking in $113,058,952 at the box office.
Springsteen canceled his remaining 2023 shows on his tour last September, as he received treatment for peptic ulcer disease. He’s since returned to the stage and is touring Europe. His next show is in Norway on July 21.
