Harry Styles, born February 1, 1994, in England, has risen to become a global music and entertainment icon. He initially gained fame as a member of One Direction, a boy band formed on the British reality show X Factor in 2010.
Despite not winning the competition, One Direction became one of the most successful boy bands of the 21st century, with over 70 million records sold and more than 240 awards won.
Their success, including hit albums like Up All Night (2011) and Take Me Home (2012), led Harry Styles to significant wealth even before his solo career began. By the time the group disbanded in 2015, Harry had already amassed millions.
Harry’s fortune took off after One Direction’s hiatus, with lucrative brand deals, solo album sales, and acting roles.
His initial solo earnings were boosted by an $80 million contract with Columbia Records, which covered three albums.
His debut single, “Sign of the Times,” released in 2017, marked the beginning of his highly successful solo career.
His subsequent albums Fine Line (2019) and Harry’s House (2022) further solidified his position in the music industry. Harry’s House topped charts, earning Harry two Grammy Awards in 2023, for Album of the Year and Best Pop Vocal Album.
His tours, particularly Love On Tour (2021-2023), brought in hundreds of millions of dollars. His Love On Tour alone grossed over $600 million, making it one of the highest-grossing tours in history. In 2019, he headlined Coachella for $4 million, further adding to his net worth.
In addition to music, Styles has pursued acting. His film career includes roles in Dunkirk (2017), Don’t Worry Darling (2022), and a cameo in The Eternals (2021).
His acting roles also contribute significantly to his income, with his pay ranging from $3 million to $3.4 million for major films.
A major source of Styles’ wealth comes from his fashion collaborations. Since 2018, he has been the face of Gucci, and his partnership with the luxury fashion brand has been especially lucrative, playing a significant role in the increase of his net worth from $80 million to $120 million by 2024.
He has also worked with Yves Saint Laurent and Calvin Klein, and in 2021, he starred in an AirPods Max commercial for Apple, donating his earnings to a charity supporting Ukrainian refugees.
In 2021, Styles ventured into the beauty industry with his gender-neutral beauty brand, Pleasing, which sold out within hours of its release.
The brand offers a range of products, including nail polishes, skincare items, and fragrances, all of which contributed to his expanding wealth. Pleasing’s success continued into 2023 with the launch of a line of sex-inspired fragrances.
Real estate is another key contributor to Styles’ fortune, with a portfolio valued at $62.5 million. His property holdings include a $4.8 million home in North London and an $8.7 million Tribeca penthouse in New York City, along with other luxurious homes in the U.S. and Europe.
Harry Styles’ continued success in music, acting, brand endorsements, business ventures, and real estate investments ensures that his net worth will likely grow even further in the years to come.
His ability to diversify his career and investments demonstrates his financial acumen, solidifying his place among the wealthiest and most influential entertainers of his generation.
