Last month, Paul McCartney was named the first UK musician to become a billionaire, according to the Sunday Times Rich List.
The music legend’s affluent wealth can be largely put down to the lucrative value of his back catalogue, as well as Beyoncé’s of his 1968 classic hit, Blackbird. More on this here.
Last month, McCartney also presented a special award to fellow musician Bruce Springsteen at the Ivor Novello Awards.
This award recognises the best creative musical achievements, with the recipients decided by award-winning songwriters and composers from the Ivors Academy, with Springsteen becoming the first international musician to receive the award.
Presenting this award to Springsteen, McCartney even joked: “Like Bruce’s concerts, I’m going to keep this brief,” referring to the Boss’ three hour plus concerts, before adding that he “couldn’t think of a more fitting” recipient “except maybe Bob Dylan, or Paul Simon, or Billy Joel, or Beyoncé, or Taylor Swift. The list goes on”.
“He’s known as the American working man but he admits he’s never worked a day in his life”, McCartney added. More on this from Nova here.
