Forbes released their Celebrity 100 list of the World’s Highest-Paid Celebrities of 2017 and Mr. Puff Daddy himself took the number 1 spot.

Back when Forbes released their first-ever celebrity 100 issue Diddy was on their issue, and now almost 2 decades later he’s topping the list pulling in the most mula with an impressive $130 million pretax. Most of his earnings came from his selling one-third of his clothing line, Sean John at a hefty $70 million. He’s also made some killings off his partnership with Diageo Ciroc vodka and the Bad Boy Family Reunion Tour.

Coming in at the number two spot is the one and only, queen Bey. Bey made $105 million over the last year and she can thank her Formation World Tour and Lemonade album for that pretty penny. 

Rounding out the top 5 Drake takes the number 4 spot with $94 million, doubling more than his 2016 earnings, and he can thank his Boy Meets World tour for that huge jump.

Our Starboy, The Weekend lands the number 6 spot on the list and also made it on the cover of the 2017 Celebrity 100 issue. The Weeknd is making some moves turning 3.2 billion streams into a whopping $92 million.
