B Simone‘s net worth is estimated at $1 million to $2 million as of November 2026. The Dallas-born comedian turned a run of viral social media skits into a long Wild ‘N Out tenure, a beauty brand that took in $100,000 in its first two months, a self-published book, and a podcast network deal — then, in June 2025, she told listeners her monthly income had fallen to around $10,000 while she poured money into a new subscription app. That rise, stumble, and rebuild is the real story behind the number.

Early Life and Background
Braelyn Simone Greenfield was born on April 5, 1990, in Dallas, Texas, and performs under the name B Simone. She started performing young, joining a girl group as a teenager, and the stage habit stuck: by her twenties she was posting short comedy skits online, doing impressions and relationship jokes that travelled well on Instagram. Dallas gave her the accent and the church-inflected humor she still leans on; Atlanta, where she later settled, gave her the industry base. She now lives in Atlanta, Georgia, a move that put her within easy reach of the Wild ‘N Out production base and the city’s deep bench of Black comedy talent.
Her family background is part of her public story in a specific way: her father is a pastor, and faith has become a central thread of her later podcast work. That matters to the money story because her most recent business, the LTTA app, is pitched as a faith-and-wellness community rather than a straight merchandise play. The audience she sells to is not a generic comedy crowd; it is women who followed her from skits to self-help book to podcast, and who pay a monthly subscription to stay close to her.
Nothing about her early years points to inherited wealth or an industry family. She built her first audience for free, on her phone, before any television network paid her. That origin explains both the speed of her rise — social followings convert fast — and the fragility that showed up later, when algorithm shifts and a paused product line could dent monthly income in ways a salaried television star would never feel.
Education
Public records and profiles do not document a college degree for B Simone, and this article does not invent one. What is documented is a performing education of a different kind: years of girl-group singing as a teenager, then self-taught short-form comedy on social media, then the hardest school in the business — a long-running improv and battle-rap television show where a weak joke dies in front of a live crowd. Her interviews describe learning comedy by doing it: open mics, club sets, and the daily discipline of posting content that either earned followers or did not.
The gap in formal credentials is worth stating plainly because net worth profiles often pad this section with unverified schools. For B Simone, the credential that paid was audience size. By the time MTV’s casting team came calling in 2017, she already had a following large enough to make her a low-risk hire: she arrived with fans attached.
Career Journey
B Simone’s career breaks into four phases, and each one changed how she got paid. Phase one, roughly 2012 to 2017, was social media: short comedy videos, impressions, and a growing Instagram following that turned her into a bookable club comic. Phase two, 2017 onward, was television: Wild ‘N Out gave her a steady paycheck and national exposure, while film and reality appearances stacked up around it. Phase three, 2019 to 2021, was products: a beauty brand, a book, and a clothing collaboration, all sold directly to the audience she had built. Phase four, 2024 onward, is subscription and audio: the Let’s Try This Again podcast and the LTTA app, where income depends on keeping a smaller group of fans paying every month.
Her acting credits show a working actress rather than a movie star. She appeared in #DigitalLivesMatter (2016), I Got the Hook Up 2 (2019), and Rent Due (2019) as Vanessa, and played Lauryn in Scheme Queens (2022). On television she turned up on Hip Hop Squares, Ridiculousness, Dish Nation, and Guy Code vs. Girl Code, and she starred in VH1’s Girls Cruise in 2019, a reality series that sent her on a Caribbean trip with fellow performers. Music runs alongside all of it: she released the EP Stack Now Cry Later in 2017, and singles built around her comedy persona. None of these projects individually made her rich. Together they kept her visible between bigger paydays, which is how a mid-tier entertainment fortune actually gets built.
Stand-up is the thread that never left. Comedy club bios describe her headlining her own sold-out club tour across the country and appearing as a special guest on the Ladies Night Out Comedy Tour and the Lit AF Tour with Martin Lawrence. Touring is also the income stream with the least public paper trail: club guarantees and door splits are rarely reported, so estimates of her touring income stay rough. What can be said with confidence is that live comedy has been a constant earner for her since before television, and it remains the fallback when product income dips.
Rise to Fame
The breakthrough year was 2017. B Simone joined the cast of Wild ‘N Out in its ninth season, Nick Cannon’s long-running sketch comedy and battle-rap show on MTV and VH1. She became a fan favorite quickly — quick on her feet in the improv games, willing to be the butt of a joke, and already fluent in the social media language the show’s younger audience spoke. Wikipedia’s episode record adds a detail most net worth pages skip: as of season 20 in 2023, she had appeared in every season since her debut except seasons 10 and 17. That is a nine-season run with two gaps, not the unbroken streak some profiles imply, and it matters because a season missed is a paycheck missed.
Her social following did the rest of the work. By May 2024 she had more than six million Instagram followers, according to the sourcing behind her Wikipedia profile. Six million followers is the asset that made the beauty brand viable on day one and that still sets her sponsorship rates. It also explains why her net worth stayed in the low seven figures despite that audience size: followers are not dollars, and converting attention into owned businesses — rather than one-off sponsored posts — is where most creators either level up or stall.
The other fame engine was controversy, and it cut both ways. Her 2020 book launch made her a self-help celebrity; the plagiarism accusations that followed made her a cautionary tale in the same news cycle. A later remark about not dating a man with a nine-to-five job ignited days of debate online. Each flare-up grew her name recognition while shrinking the pool of brands willing to attach their name to hers — a trade that shows up directly in sponsorship income.
Main Sources of Income
B Simone has never had one dominant paycheck. Her income stacks across six streams, and the mix has shifted year by year:
- Television: Wild ‘N Out cast pay across nine-plus seasons, plus reality and guest spots on MTV, VH1, and BET.
- Stand-up comedy: headlining club dates and guest slots on national comedy tours, including the Lit AF Tour with Martin Lawrence.
- Podcasting: Let’s Try This Again, a Dear Media show launched in April 2024, with advertising and sponsorship revenue.
- Beauty and apparel: B Simone Beauty (launched 2019, on hiatus as of May 2024) and the Faith Over Fear clothing collection with Footaction (2021).
- Books and courses: Baby Girl: Manifest the Life You Want (2020), whose sales were paused after plagiarism accusations, plus later digital products.
- Social media and subscriptions: Instagram sponsorships, YouTube advertising, and the LTTA app at $9.99 a month or $71.88 a year.
The honest way to read that list is that television and touring paid the bills, products supplied the spikes, and subscriptions are the current bet. When the beauty brand went on hiatus and the book stopped selling, two spikes disappeared at once — which is exactly when her 2025 podcast comments about tight cash make sense.
Salary and Earnings
No network, studio, or agency has published B Simone’s per-episode Wild ‘N Out pay, and this article does not guess at it. Ensemble cast members on long-running cable shows typically earn far less per episode than the host, and her pay likely rose with seniority across nine seasons — but without a contract leak or a named report, any specific episode figure would be invented. The same restraint applies to her film roles: supporting parts in Scheme Queens and I Got the Hook Up 2 pay working-actress rates, not star salaries.
Where numbers do exist, they come from her own mouth and from influencer-economics trackers. In June 2025, on Let’s Try This Again, she said her income had dropped sharply and her monthly earnings had fallen toward $10,000, as reported by CW39 Houston and covered by DeepNewz. She described watching every expense, swapping Bloomingdale’s shopping trips for H&M, and said her wealth was tied up in building the LTTA app rather than sitting in cash. Coverage framed the drop against far stronger peak months, but the $10,000 figure is the one she herself put on the record, and it is the most concrete earnings data point available for her in 2025.
Third-party trackers fill in the sponsorship side. Hafi, which tracks influencer earnings, estimated her social and sponsorship income at roughly $50,000 to $68,500 a month — $570,000 to $780,000 a year — in reporting cited by Mechical in June 2025. YouTube analytics sites put her channel’s advertising revenue far lower, around $1,500 to $6,000 a month, per GazetteDirect’s 2025 roundup. The gap between those two numbers is the point: sponsorships, not platform ad payouts, are where a creator with six million Instagram followers actually earns. Both tracker figures are estimates, not disclosures, and they describe gross deal flow before agents, managers, taxes, and production costs.
One more distinction matters when reading any creator’s earnings: gross deal flow is not take-home pay. A sponsorship figure quoted by a tracker describes money attached to deals, before an agent’s commission, a manager’s cut, production costs for the content itself, and taxes. For a creator running her own product company, the gap is wider still, because revenue booked by the brand is not profit paid to the founder — inventory, fulfillment, advertising, and app development all come out first. That is why her podcast comments about tight cash can sit alongside tracker estimates in the hundreds of thousands a year without either side lying: one describes cash in hand during a heavy investment period, the other describes the size of the commercial activity around her name.
Put together, the earnings picture is lumpy rather than smooth. Peak years — 2019 through 2021, when television, touring, a new beauty line, and a bestselling book overlapped — likely produced her highest annual income. The mid-2020s look thinner: a paused beauty brand, a paused book, and heavy reinvestment into an app. That lumpiness is why a single net worth number misleads, and why the range in this article is wide.
Businesses and Investments
B Simone Beauty is the business that defines her entrepreneurial record. Launched in 2019 as a vegan and cruelty-free cosmetics line, it sold lip products and accessories directly to her social audience. Westside Story Newspaper reported in December 2019 that the line sold $100,000 on Black Friday, and Vibe’s coverage the same month put the figure at $100,000 earned in two months. Either way, the launch cleared six figures fast — a genuine result, and one of the few hard revenue numbers attached to her name. The less-reported second half of the story is that the brand is on hiatus as of May 2024, according to her Wikipedia profile’s sourcing. Most net worth pages still describe the brand as a live, growing asset. It is not, at least not currently, and a paused brand contributes nothing to monthly income while its inventory and trademarks sit idle.
The Faith Over Fear clothing collection, released with Footaction in 2021, was a collaboration rather than a company she owned outright. Collaboration economics usually mean a design fee plus a royalty or revenue share, not the full margin of a self-owned brand. No sales figure for the collection has been published, so it is credited here as a real but unquantified income event.
The LTTA app is the current business and the most expensive one she has built. Launched in November 2024 as a women’s empowerment community with exclusive content, it charges $9.99 a month or $71.88 a year. On her December 29, 2025 podcast episode, she said she lost nearly $40,000 on the first attempt at building it before rebuilding — a rare public admission of a startup loss from a celebrity founder. Subscriber counts have not been published, so the app’s revenue cannot be estimated honestly beyond arithmetic: every 1,000 monthly subscribers at $9.99 would mean roughly $10,000 a month before app-store fees and costs. Whether she has hundreds or tens of thousands of paying users is undisclosed, and that unknown is the single biggest swing factor in her 2026 finances.
On investments, the public record is thin. Some net worth pages credit her with tech startup investments and real estate holdings, but no filing, funding announcement, or property record names her as an investor or buyer at a stated price. This article does not repeat those claims as fact. What is documented is a condo she bought in 2022, noted in 2025 coverage of her finances, and her own statement that her assets are tied up in her business rather than held as liquid cash.
Brand Deals and Sponsorships
Brand work is the quiet engine of B Simone’s income and the hardest to document, because most creator deals are never disclosed. The Hafi estimate of $50,000 to $68,500 a month in sponsorship and social income implies a steady calendar of paid posts, stories, and appearances for beauty, fashion, and lifestyle brands — the categories that fit a six-million-follower comedy and beauty creator. At those rates, a single sponsored Instagram post from a creator of her size commonly commands five figures, though exact per-post prices for her have not been published.
Her brand history also shows the cost side of sponsorships. The 2020 book plagiarism controversy and later social media flare-ups made her a riskier partner for conservative brands, and creators in that position often see deal flow narrow to smaller, faster-moving companies rather than long-term ambassador contracts. The Footaction collaboration in 2021 remains her most visible brand partnership with a national retailer. No current long-term ambassador deal has been publicly announced, which fits the 2025 picture of income leaning on her own products and podcast rather than third-party endorsements.
Podcast sponsorship works differently and may be steadier: Let’s Try This Again is produced by Dear Media, a network that sells advertising across its shows, so her podcast income arrives as a share of network ad sales plus any direct reads she records. Episode listings on iHeart show the show publishing weekly into January 2026, with guests ranging from gospel artist Koryn Hawthorne to comedian Na’im Lynn — a sign the show remains active and sellable to advertisers.
Houses, Cars and Other Assets
B Simone lives in Atlanta, Georgia, and 2025 coverage of her finances refers to a condo she bought in 2022, with a monthly mortgage she mentioned herself on her podcast when joking that likes and subscriptions help pay her bills. No purchase price, address, or public property record has been published in the sources reviewed for this article, so no value is assigned to the condo here. It counts as an asset — real estate she owns and pays a mortgage on — but its equity is unknown, and honest net worth math cannot count an unknown.
Cars are a similar story. She has posted designer fashion and luxury items on social media, and 2025 commentary noted jewelry as a store of value she mentioned herself. But no verified vehicle purchase, price, or collection has been reported by a named outlet, so this article does not list a car collection. The broader point stands on her own testimony: her wealth is asset-heavy and cash-light. Money went into a business, a home, and personal items, which is why a person with a seven-figure net worth can still describe months of watching every expense.
Height listings vary by outlet — most list her at 5 feet 2 inches, while some list 5 feet 5 inches — a small reminder that even basic biographical data about creators is often copied from outlet to outlet without checking. This article uses the more commonly reported 5 feet 2 inches in the Quick Facts table.
Awards and Achievements
B Simone has no major industry award — no Emmy, Grammy, or NAACP Image Award — on the public record, and this article does not pad the section to pretend otherwise. Her achievements are commercial and audience-based, and they are real: a nine-season run (minus two seasons) on one of cable’s longest-running comedy shows; a beauty brand that cleared $100,000 in its first two months; a self-published book that reached bestseller conversation before its sales were paused; a headlining stand-up tour; and a podcast that has run weekly since April 2024 with a subscription app built on top of it.
The achievement that best predicts her future net worth is the least glamorous: she kept an audience for more than a decade across platforms that usually chew creators up in two years. Social fame from 2017 that is still monetizable in 2026, through a podcast and an app, is rarer than a single viral year. Whether the app converts that staying power into recurring revenue is the open question of her finances.
Net Worth Growth Over the Years
Year-by-year net worth tables for B Simone are mostly invented by content sites — several publish smooth staircases climbing to $6 million or $8 million with no source for any rung. The table below uses only figures that can be tied to a named source or to her own statements, and marks the rest as estimates.
| Year | Estimated net worth | What drove it |
|---|---|---|
| 2017 | Under $500,000 (estimate) | Wild ‘N Out debut; social following converting to club bookings |
| 2019 | Around $1 million (estimate) | B Simone Beauty launch; $100,000 in first two months; Girls Cruise |
| 2020 | Around $1 million | Book launch, then plagiarism controversy and paused sales; touring halted by the pandemic |
| 2021 | $1 million to $2 million (estimate) | Faith Over Fear with Footaction; touring return; sponsorship peak |
| 2023 | $1 million to $2 million (estimate) | Wild ‘N Out season 20; podcast era approaching |
| 2024 | $1 million to $2 million (estimate) | Beauty brand on hiatus; Let’s Try This Again launches; LTTA app build begins |
| 2025 | $1 million to $2 million | Celebrity Net Worth baseline $1 million; podcast income-dip admission; app investment |
| 2026 | $1 million to $2 million | Podcast active into January 2026; app revenue undisclosed |
The honest shape is a plateau, not a staircase. She reached seven figures around 2019–2020, and the best-sourced estimates since then have stayed in the same band. Outlier tables claiming $6 million or $8 million by 2025–2026 rely on invented rungs — “investments in tech startups” and “online courses” with no named company, round, or revenue figure — and they are excluded here.
Peer comparison puts the plateau in context. Martin Lawrence, whose Lit AF Tour she guested on, is reported by Celebrity Net Worth at around $110 million — a film and television fortune built over three decades. Tiffany Haddish, another comedian who crossed from stand-up to film, is reported at around $6 million. B Simone’s $1 million to $2 million sits below both, which fits a career built on cable ensemble television and creator businesses rather than film leads or arena tours.
Social Media Presence
Instagram is her home platform: more than six million followers as of May 2024, with comedy clips, beauty content, faith posts, and podcast promotion. YouTube adds about 1.26 million subscribers, though its direct ad revenue is modest next to sponsorships. Her podcast clips circulate on TikTok and Instagram Reels, feeding the funnel toward the LTTA app — the one place where a follower becomes a paying subscriber rather than a free viewer.
That funnel is the whole business model now. Free social content earns attention; the podcast earns trust and ad dollars; the app is supposed to earn recurring revenue. The risk is visible in her own 2025 comments: when free platforms pay less and the app costs more to build than it returns, the creator absorbs the gap personally. Her openness about that gap — the H&M shopping trips, the mortgage joke, the $40,000 lost on the first app build — is unusual among celebrity wealth stories, and it is why this profile can describe her cash flow more concretely than most.
Personal Life
B Simone is not publicly married and does not publicize a current partner. She has spoken openly on her podcast about dating, faith, and the desire for a family, and her “nine-to-five” dating remark became one of her most debated public moments — a reminder that a comedian’s stage opinions become personal-life headlines. She keeps her family largely out of the spotlight apart from her father’s pastoral influence, which she credits in her faith-centered podcast work.
Her public personal story in recent years is really a wellness story: a documented fitness journey, a shift from crystals-and-manifestation branding toward Christian faith content, and a podcast framed around healing and second chances. That pivot shapes her product line — the LTTA app sells community and encouragement, not cosmetics — and it may be the smartest financial move available to her: it monetizes the audience that stayed with her through controversy, rather than chasing the broader audience that drifted away.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is B Simone’s net worth in 2026?
B Simone’s net worth is estimated at $1 million to $2 million as of November 2026. Celebrity Net Worth lists her at $1 million, while other outlets put her at $1.5 million or $2 million. No filing or audited statement exists, so the honest figure is a range, not a single number.
How does B Simone make money?
She earns from television (Wild ‘N Out and guest spots), stand-up comedy tours, her Let’s Try This Again podcast, social media sponsorships, and her own products — B Simone Beauty, the Faith Over Fear clothing line, and the LTTA subscription app. No single stream dominates; the mix has shifted from products toward podcasting and subscriptions since 2024.
Is B Simone Beauty still in business?
As of May 2024, B Simone Beauty is on hiatus, according to the sourcing behind her Wikipedia profile. The vegan, cruelty-free brand launched in 2019 and took in $100,000 in its first two months, but it is not currently selling as an active line. Many net worth pages still describe it as a live business, which overstates her current income.
What happened to B Simone’s book?
She self-published Baby Girl: Manifest the Life You Want in March 2020. In June 2020, social media users accused the book of copying passages from other books and websites. She apologized, blamed a company she hired to help write it, and sales were paused. The controversy dented her brand partnerships even as it raised her name recognition.
How much does B Simone make per month?
On her podcast in June 2025, she said her monthly earnings had fallen toward $10,000 while she funded the LTTA app. Influencer tracker Hafi estimated her sponsorship and social income far higher, at $50,000 to $68,500 a month, in reporting cited the same month. The gap reflects the difference between a cash-tight rebuilding period she described herself and gross deal flow before costs.
Is B Simone still on Wild ‘N Out?
She joined the cast in season 9 in 2017 and, as of season 20 in 2023, had appeared in every season since her debut except seasons 10 and 17. Her most recent television income comes from that long tenure plus guest appearances; her current public focus is her podcast and app.
Did B Simone buy a house?
2025 coverage of her finances refers to a condo she bought in 2022 in Atlanta, where she lives, and she has mentioned her monthly mortgage on her podcast. No purchase price or property record has been published, so no value is assigned to the home in her net worth estimate.
What is the LTTA app and how much does it cost?
LTTA is B Simone’s women’s empowerment community app, launched in November 2024 with exclusive content from her Let’s Try This Again podcast. It costs $9.99 a month or $71.88 a year. She has said she lost nearly $40,000 on the first attempt at building it before rebuilding, and subscriber numbers have not been published.
Final Thoughts
B Simone’s fortune is best understood as a plateau with a story, not a staircase. She reached seven figures around 2019 on the back of television, touring, and a beauty launch that genuinely cleared $100,000 in two months — then watched two of her three product engines stall while she bet her cash on a subscription app. The $1 million to $2 million range in this article is deliberately unglamorous: it follows Celebrity Net Worth’s baseline, her own 2025 admission of $10,000 months, and the absence of any sale, funding round, or contract that would justify the $6 million-plus figures floating around aggregator sites.
What could move the number from here is almost entirely the LTTA app. If it converts a fraction of six million Instagram followers into $9.99-a-month subscribers, recurring revenue could push her past the plateau within a couple of years. If it does not, she remains what she has been since 2017: a working comedian and television personality with a loyal audience, a paused beauty brand, and a podcast that keeps her relevant. Either way, the next honest update to this figure will come from subscriber numbers or a new business disclosure — not from another aggregator raising its guess.
