Barbadian music star Rihanna has been named among the richest teens of Hollywood.

In a September 1 article in The Times Of India newspaper, the 19-year-old was listed alongside Daniel Radcliffe, Hayden Panetierre, and Hilary Duff as “four of the richest teens of Hollywood”.

The paper described Robyn Rihanna Fenty as the singer “whose latest CD, Good Girl Gone Bad, sold more than 200 000 copies in its first two weeks out”.

The article also described her as “a savvy spender, who doesn’t like to waste money, and quotes her as saying:

“I buy things that I’m going to get my money’s worth out of, things I’m going to use a lot.

“I like to splurge on make-up and shoes [while] my mom loves bags”.

Meanwhile, Radcliffe, 17, was described as Britain’s richest teen who will be paid a reported US$50 million for his next two Harry Potter films; while Panettiere, 17, was estimated to earn US$2 million a year, and Duff, 19, earns about US$12 million a year and is chief executive officer of her own lifestyle company.
