Richest 'The Voice' Contestants Of All Time And Their Net Worth
By Adeola Seun
The Voice has been a part of the spectrum of American entertainment since it came on air in April 2012. The singing competition cum reality show has been the leading singing competition show in the US since its premiere and in that time, it has recorded several winners and contestants who have gone on to have a successful career and become quite rich. This has raised the question of who are the richest The Voice contestants of all time?
The show itself rewards its winners with a $100 thousand cash prize and a record deal with Universal Music Group, and while in itself, it is a decent offering, the exposure from competing on the show has served as a great platform for contestants to build a successful career and become rich men and women.
Check out some of the stars who attained stardom from the show and are also considered some of the richest The Voice contestants.
