1. Andrew Lloyd Webber — $1.2 Billion
Webber isn’t a singer, but he is, however, the wealthiest songwriter in the world. He is also one of only 15 people to have won an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony, which is referred to as an EGOT. Some of his most memorable contributions were in the musicals ‘Phantom of the Opera,’ ‘Cats,’ ‘Evita,’ and ‘Joseph and the Technicolor Dream Coat.’
