Megan Thee Stallion Becomes First Black Woman On Cover Of Forbes’ ’30 Under 30′

Megan Thee Stallion has become the first black woman to appear on the cover of Forbes‘ “30 Under 30” issue.

Forbes estimates that the Houston rapper earned some $13 million from a combination of royalties, ticket sales, endorsements and merch in 2022.

The sources of her fortunes this year include an estimated $2 million Super Bowl Cheetos ad and deals with other major brands like Nike, Revlon, Cash App and Popeyes.

“I can’t slow down right now. I’ll take a break when I’m dead. I’m trying to really build something. When I start sitting, I feel like I’m not doing enough or I’m giving somebody else the opportunity to pass me,” Megan Thee Stallion told Forbes in their cover story interview.

The 27-year-old Grammy winner first landed on Forbes‘ annual “30 Under 30” list in 2019.

In 2020, Cardi B and Megan collaborated on “WAP,” a spicy anthem of female sexual positivity that became the hit of the year with nearly 2 billion streams on Spotify and YouTube.

One of the most popular celebrities on social media, Megan has some 50 million followers across Instagram, TikTok and Twitter.
