5. Conchita Wurst
Net worth: $3 million
Austrian performer Conchita Wurst may have been one of the boldest transgender women to appear in recent LGBT history. In 2014, Wurst made a big, bold statement during her Eurovision performance: she had a beard to go with her full feminine look. It was not a mustache, not a 3-day old stubble, or a subtle shadow but a full-on beard.
Conchita Wurst began her singing career as Thomas Neuwirth.
