Beyoncé performed 95 shows on tour, taking home an estimated
$2.4 million per gig and also fronted ad campaigns for Pepsi and H&M, as
well as having her own fragrance line and clothing company, which all
contributed in allowing her to take the top spot from Oprah Winfrey, who came
first last year but could only manage fourth place this time around as others
were deemed more influential and powerful.

with an astonishing $620 million – the highest any celebrity has ever recorded
in a single year in the history of the lis, but could only manage third place,
while talk show host Ellen DeGeneres rounded out the top five, coming in one
place ahead of Beyonce’s husband Jay Z.

Rihanna, Katy Perry and actor Robert Downey Jr.

ReplyDeleteDon't be excessively hard on yourself in the event that you get a bit tongue-tied around celebrities you really respect, additionally don't talk a ton about what they do unless they truly want to discuss it.
