The Weeknd’s amorous record is extensive, including Bella Hadid & Selena Gomez. However, Hadid’s name repeats in the list twice, from 2015 to 2016 and 2017 to 2019. 

Nevertheless, after The Weeknd’s last album Dawn FM, several suspicions were awakened about the singer being related to Angelina Jolie after her messy divorce.

However, not only has he reached economic success but also international recognition in the world of Hip-Hop, Rap, and R&B genres.  

Nevertheless, the singer has been involved in several entrepreneurial pursuits besides music, such as collaborations with various brands.

In June 2017, the singer picked a three-acre estate in Hidden Hills that cost $18 million, yet, the property was put on sale by June 2020 for $25 million. It wasn’t until April that he finally sold it for $20 million to Madonna. One of his latest purchases is a $70 million mansion in Bel Air. The house is 33,000 square feet and features a sports court, two pools, a movie theater, a music studio, and a gym.
