Its official the Oasis reunion has made Noel and Liam Gallagher rich. After their massive reunion tour last year the brothers feature on the Sunday Times rich list for the very first time with a projected fortune of 375 million.
The Gallaghers are placed eleventh on the annual list just behind another new entry - Emily Eavis and her family, the founders and organisers of Glastonbury Festival who have a reported fortune of 400million.
It's a major uplift for the Gallaghers who back in 2009, when Oasis split after yet another fraternal bust-up, only had a combined wealth calculated at 52 million.
Oasis are tipped to announce another string of mega gigs for 2027 which could see that figure reach more than half a billion.
The 41 shows between July and November last year took almost 400 million at the box office and provided the perfect warm-up act for a sale of the group's song rights. The Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight is putting the final touches to a documentary of the reunion concerts.
The annual list of the 350 richest people in Britain will appear in the Sunday Times Magazine this weekend with a number of people from the entertainment industry among the top earners.
The highest earning musician is Sir Paul McCartney who is fourth with an estimated fortune of 1.055billion. Other big names on the list include Elton John at six with 480million, Mick Jagger and Keith Richards both at seventh place with 450million and Ed Sheeran is eighth (410million).
However, their net worth can't match the three richest names on the musicians list.
Russian-born Warner Music Group owner Leonard Blavatnik is No1 with an estimated fortume of 26.852billion, while Clive Calder - forunder of Jive Records - is second with 3.25billion.
Theatre producer Cameron Mackintosh is third with 1.4billion.
Other significant figures in pop culture on the list include Harry Styles, Brian May and Dua Lipa also make the list, while David Beckham becoming the first billionaire sportsman in Britain.
