Now that she's officially joined the billion-dollar club, "Rhythm Nation" singer Janet Jackson could probably buy her own, well, nation, if she wanted.

Of course, hearing about the gal's impressive bank account got us thinking about some stars who are doing more than OK on the financial front.

Here are more celebs who have hit the 10-figure mark.

Beyoncé and Jay-Z: This one is a bit of a no-brainer.

After all, we are talking about two artists who, on their own, have collected quite a bit of cool cash through so much more than just their music.

The couple recently surpassed one billion, thanks in large part to Bey's current world tour, which is expected to pull in about $116 million alone.

Steven Spielberg: Let's face it. How can the man who gave us Jaws, Raiders of the Lost Ark, E.T. and Jurassic Park (just to name a few) not have earned a pretty penny?

Sure enough, he has, to the tune of $3.2 billion.

Oprah Winfrey: Sure, her daytime talk show ended in 2011, but if memory serves us correctly, it had a bit of a following.

Add the fact that Miss O has a successful production company, a popular magazine as well as a cable network that is actually starting to pick up speed, it's no surprise she's worth $2.8 billion.

Donald Trump: He may be a bit polarizing, but there's one thing folks can undoubtely agree on—the man knows how to make a buck.

Through numerous real estate deals, along with lending his name to various products such as a fragrance collection for men, the mogul has money.

Of course, that Celebrity Apprentice show doesn't hurt either. Net worth: $3.2 billion.

Julia Louis-Dreyfus: Wait. The actress has more money than Jerry Seinfeld?!

Yep. However, it's not simply from her work on the comedian's hit show. You see, the Veep star's father is billionaire Gerard Louis-Dreyfus, who made his fortune as the chairman of the French commodities trading company, the Louis Dreyfus Group.

Translation? His daughter looks to eventually inherit a reported $3 billion.
