Solange Piaget Knowles was born on 24 June 1986, in Houston, Texas USA, of Afro-American (father) and Creole (mother) descent. Solange is a popular singer, model, actress and songwriter, but is perhaps best known for being the sister of the famous singer, Beyonce.However, Solanage herself has written many popular songs and has also released several albums. Recently Knowles also tried her skills in the acting sphere and it was a quite successful choice. During her career, Solange has been nominated for such awards as Soul Train Music Award, BET Award and Golden Spin Award, a sign of acclaim and recognition although not actually winning any yet. As Solange is still young, there is a high chance that she will continue creating music and maybe will become more popular as a solo artist.
Solange Knowles Net Worth $5 Million
So how rich is Solange Knowles? It is authoritively estimated that Solange’s net worth is $5 million, the main source of this sum of money being her activities as a musician and also her extraordinary song writing skills. Now that Knowles has started acting, it will probably become one of the main reasons for her high net worth to increase.
When Solange was a young girl, she saw how her sister, Beyoncé, worked hard in order to achieve success and become a famous singer. Although all of the attention of her parents was given to the career of Beyoncé, Solange’s talents were also noticed and she learned how to dance and act. Soon she became interested in writing songs, at which she was really good. When Solange was 15 years old she had an opportunity to tour with “Destiny’s Child” and see everything in the music industry up close. One year later Solange signed up with the recording company called “Music World Entertainment”.
At the beginning of her career Solange mainly worked as a backup singer for her sister and her band, but she also released some singles. As time went by, Knowles started working on her solo album, which was released in 2003 and called “Solo Star”, with many of the album’s songs written and produced by Solange. This was the time when Solange Knowles’ net worth really began growing. In 2008 Solange released her second album, entitled “Sol-Angel and the Hadley St. Dreams”; this album was considered to be more successful than the first one and it gained more acclaim and popularity.
In 2013 Solange founded her own record company and announced that she will be working on this company and will soon release her third album. Undoubtedly, it will also be very successful and will add a lot to Solange’s net worth. As mentioned, Solange has appeared in several movies and television shows. Some of them include “Bring It On: All or Nothing”, “Johnson Family Vacation”, “Taff”, “One on One” and others. All these appearances also added to Solange’s net worth.
If to talk about Solange Knowles’ personal life, it can be said that she has been married twice, firstly when she was only 17 years old, while her husband, Daniel Smith, was 19. In the same year a child was born to them, but unfortunately the couple divorced in 2007. In 2014 Solange married Alan Ferguson. Let’s hope that their marriage will last longer. All in all, Solange Knowles is a really talented woman, whose talent might sometimes be overshadowed by her sister’s fame. Despite this fact, Knowles still works hard and creates music, which has many fans all over the world. Let’s hope that she will continue working for a long time.
