Having created one of the best selling albums of all time, 21, superstar singer Adele has topped
the Sunday Times Musician Wealth Chart with a whopping fortune of £20m, at just 23 years old.
Actors, models and musicians dominate the Young Rich List of
British millionaires under the age of 30 to be included in the Sunday Times Rich List 2012, published on Sunday April
29.
22-year-old Daniel Radcliffe has been named the richest young person in Britain, having earned a staggering £54m
after starring in eight Harry Potter films, and more recently, The Woman In Black, which is said to have
increased his fortune by £6m in a year.
Twilight heartthrob Robert Pattinson falls close behind with a
fortune of £40m, and model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is a newbie to the rich ranks having earned £5m in her short modelling
career.
But young entertainer Adele, from Tottenham, London, has made the biggest impact in the last year and has
officially earned her title as a pop diva.
The singer has more than trebled her wealth after the phenomenal worldwide
success of her second album, 21.
Her increase of £6m last year alone has put her £8m ahead of the fortunes of
Cheryl Cole, Leona Lewis and Katie Melua, who are equal in second place – each work £12m.
The five newcomers in The
Young Music Millionaires Top 20, each worth £5m, are the four members of JLS, and 24-year-old Jessie J, who has sold almost
1m copies of her album, Who You Are and is a mentor on the BBC TV talent show, The Voice.
