‘The Voice’ Coaches Net Worths 2020: Does Kelly Clarkson Make the Most?

The Voice has been on for 18 seasons, and while none of its winners have become household names, the show always has top-tier coaches. We know about their salaries, but what about The Voice coaches’ net worths? Well, like their paychecks, The Voice judges aren’t on the same levels of wealth. But that doesn’t mean they’re paid pennies either. Each of the coaches is a millionaire (obvi), but which one is worth the most? We do the investigative work ahead.

The Voice premiered in April 2011 with coaches Blake Shelton, Adam Levine, Christina Aguilera and Cee Lo Green. Immediately, the show became a hit for its simple but irresistible premise: You can only judge singers on their voice. In the audition rounds, the judges’ chairs are turned around as contestants perform. If they like a contestant and want them on their team, they press the red button in front of them, which turns around their chairs and allows them to see the singer. If more than one judge presses his or her button, the contestant is allowed to choose the celebrity they want as their coach—but not before a hilarious bidding war between the famous judges.

While the voice-only premise just lasts for the audition rounds, it still makes for a fun and innovative singing competition. It’s no wonder The Voice has been on TV for almost a decade. Find out how much each of the show’s 14 judges are worth ahead.

Cyrus may be one of the youngest Voice coaches (she was only 23 when she joined as a judge in season 11), but she’s also one of richest. She’s worth $160 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth.

Usher 

Seasons: 4, 6

Net worth: $180 million

Usher may not have been on The Voice for that long, but his net worth is one of the highest on this list. Celebrity Net Worth reports that singer is worth $180 million.

Pharrell’s time on The Voice also wasn’t the longest, but the singer-writer-producer is worth an impressive $200 million, according to Celebrity Net worth. While Pharrell has his own hits like “Get Lucky” and “Happy,” the artist is best known in the music industry behind the scenes. The former Voice judge has produced songs like Migos’ “Stir Fry,” Ed Sheeran’s “Sing” and Robin Thicke’s “Blurred Lines,” which is why his net worth is so massive.

Shakira 

Seasons: 4, 6

Net worth: $300 million

And the richest Voice coach is…Shakira. The Latin-pop singer only judged on the show for two seasons, but we’re sure it’s because the series couldn’t afford her for more. According to Celebrity Net Worth, Shakira is worth $300 million. It’s easy to see why: She’s an international icon with hits like “Whenever, Wherever,” “Hips Don’t Lie” and “She Wolf.” She’s also won 12 Latin Grammys and three Grammys. She’s also one of the few people on this list who has performed the Super Bowl Half Time Show. Total boss.
