She earned an estimated $5 million (£3.75 million) to $10 million (£7.5 million) for A Star Is Born and reportedly commanded a $12 million (£9 million) base salary for the 2024 Joker sequel, Folie à Deux. Her “Enigma + Jazz & Piano” residency in Las Vegas was also a major financial success, reportedly earning her $1 million (£750,000) per show and grossing over $110 million (£82 million) in total revenue by 2024.
6. Gaga’s wealth also comes from a broad range of high-margin ventures outside of her music.
