While the rest of us are busy paying off loans, trying to save our homes, and kep our jobs, Beyonce and a shit load of celebrities are sitting on a hefty amount of coin. Forbes recently released their annual “Worlds Best-Paid Music Stars” list, which is not the same list as the “Highest Earners” list.
The top ten artists for the list include some pretty big names including
Gwen Stafani (#10 with $27 million), Madonna (#5 with $40 million) and Justin Timberlake (#4 with $44 million). Coming in second place was R&B Queen and actress, Beyonce. Beyonce took in over $80 million dollars last year with her albums, shows, endorsement deals and movie appearances. Beating out Beyonce for the top spot was Sting’s The Police who took in $115 million due to their farewell tour and album. I wonder if Beyonce's pouring any of those earnings back into the communities that have made her all that money?
