Even if she did have the cash, she’s an artist who makes things that people love. You don’t need her art to live like you do healthcare and food so as much as I hate billionaires, she’s not anywhere near the same level of bad

And you, like, see her recording new albums and performing it live on tours, building an image etc. It is more labor than most billionaires do even though she’s well-assisted. Most fucking golfies delegate their stonks to professionals and do nothing beyound socialising with equals and hearing from serfs. In a sense, she’s a medieval noble that don’t just burn through her wealth like there’s no tommorow but also indulge herself in art that makes traction outside of her bubble, regular people resonate with her music and that itself gives her some significance. School curiculum on humanities are filled with the likes of her.

Yeah, there’s nothing abstract about how she got her wealth. We all see her do the things that make her money and it doesn’t involve fucking people over. Can’t say the same about most billionaires

And she’d probably be less uncomfortable about forteiting her wealth while securing her comfort and a way to keep creating and singing for people. At least that’s what I idelastically think about artists going rich.
