Who Run’s the World?: Beyoncé Tops Forbes List

Talk about securing the bag..Beyoncé continues to do that and then some!

The mega superstar was recently named the world’s highest paid woman in music by Forbes. Surpassing any competition by a landslide, the “Drunk in Love” singer made $105 million before taxes from June 2016 to June 2017 based on sales from her Lemonade project and The Formation World Tour. Let’s not forget her thriving Ivy Park fashion line and other business interests. Sis is running the world for sure!

Adele took home second (as if being second on Forbes is an insult) with a whopping $69 million. Taylor Swift came in third with $44 million. Rihanna, Britney Spears, Katy Perry, Dolly Parton, and Barbra Streisand placed in the top 10 as well. Rih may be coming for a few of those top spots next year with her current success of Fenty Beauty…only time will tell…
