    Billie Eilish is all set to wrap up the latest Olympic Games in Paris with a bang , and she's set to make a huge sum of money too.

    The 22-year-old singer is part of a star-studded line-up ready to wow the crowds in the French capital , marking an incredible fortnight of sports. She's slated to perform alongside big names like Snoop Dogg and Tom Cruise , who is rumoured to be preparing for a surprise stunt.

    This galaxy of stars will take centre stage as part of the handover to the 2028 Los Angeles Games. All the musical talents performing at the Stade de France hail from California , including H. E. R who is expected to belt out the US national anthem.

    With Eilish set to entertain the masses, her popularity has skyrocketed in recent years. Let's delve into just how much the 'Bad Guy' singer is worth.

    Billie Eilish's net worth

    Grammy-winner Eilish is more than just a singer, if her net worth is anything to go by. The homeschooled star, raised in the world of showbiz, reportedly has a staggering value of around $53million.

    What will Billie Eilish be paid for the Olympics closing ceremony?

    Eilish will take home nothing as a result of her performance at the Olympics. A spokesperson for the Olympics told Page Six after speculation around Lady Gaga's pay for the opening ceremony: “Contrary to some media reports, the performers at the Paris 2024 Games ceremonies will not receive a fee for their performance. Their decision to perform under these conditions reflects their desire to be part of a historic event for France and for the world of sports.”

    In her singing career, she has scooped an impressive nine Grammy awards from 25 nominations. In 2020, she made history as the first and youngest female artist to sweep the big four categories, which include best new artist, song of the year, record of the year and album of the year.

    She also bagged the award for best pop vocal album that same year.

    One of her most significant moments - although exact pay details are not known - was when she contributed to the Barbie soundtrack for the massive hit featuring Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling. Other major successes included tracks like Ocean Eyes.

    The recording achieved triple platinum status in the States, while also enjoying immense success worldwide.

    Staying within the realm of movie soundtracks, Eilish's No Time to Die made history by reaching number one on the UK charts. With this achievement, she became the first artist born in the 21st century to have the honour of recording a James Bond theme tune and topping the charts with it.

    Eilish frequently tours globally and has performed at numerous large-scale events before her Olympics contribution. In 2019, Eilish graced the stage at Coachella, where stars such as Beyonce have previously earned a cool $8million for their festival performances.

    Beyond music, she has also featured on the cover of Vogue UK. While celebrities typically don't receive payment for these appearances, there's no doubt that her 2021 photoshoot for the iconic magazine would've helped to enhance her reputation.
