Taylor Swift made her debut on Forbes’ yearly billionaires rankings.

Forbes reported Tuesday the pop star’s personal fortune amounted to an estimated $1.1 billion. That figure put her at No. 2,545 in the rankings.

Swift achieved the status from the success of her music and concerts, according to Forbes.
