Taylor Swift tops the list of ladies, and she’s also the world’s top-earning entertainer period with a whopping $185 mill from last year. Yonce and Rih Rih are in the second and third places but we can’t say we’re really surprised. Last year Queen Bey had both her On The Run II stadium tour AND she double dropped the Homecoming Netflix special and live album. She didn’t have to go that hard, but she did y’all, SHE DID IT FOR US! And although she has a billionaire boo, Rihanna made some major money moves of her own when she solidified that fashion line bag with LVMH.
Besides Bey and Rih, Ariana Grande, Katy Perry and JLO also made some major dough this year. Take a look at the full list of the top ten earning women in music below:
