Cher has an estimated net worth of $360 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth, Cher net worth page (figures as of December 8, 2025).
Cher is an American singer and actress dubbed the "Goddess of Pop", known for her contralto voice, bold fashion and elaborate stagecraft. Born Cheryl Sarkisian, she has kept her career going for more than six decades through constant reinvention, and her screen roles often reflect her strong, outspoken public image.
She rose to fame in 1965 as half of the duo Sonny & Cher, whose hit "I Got You Babe" became an emblem of the 1960s. She launched a solo career at the same time with songs like "Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)" and later topped the charts with "Gypsys, Tramps & Thieves" and "Half-Breed". She won the Academy Award for Best Actress for Moonstruck, and "Believe" became one of her biggest hits.
How Cher makes her money
Music is the foundation of Cher's fortune. She has had hits in every decade since the 1960s, and a catalog like that earns royalties from sales, radio, streaming and licensing. "Believe" alone was a global smash that sold in huge numbers.
Touring and live shows have been a giant source of income. Her concert tours have been among the most successful by a female artist, and she has also played long-running residencies in Las Vegas, where a top star can earn large sums night after night.
Television and film added more. The Sonny & Cher Comedy Hour made her a TV star in the 1970s, and her film roles, including her Oscar-winning part in Moonstruck, paid well.
Her Living Proof: The Farewell Tour was the highest-grossing concert tour by a female artist in its day. She is also the only performer to have won an acting Oscar and been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, a mark of how broad her appeal has been.
