      • Lax December 14, 2012

        I Wonder if that is a Mis Print Since the Curry Goat
        don’t even know how to pour Pee out of a Boot, if
        you let her haters tell it.
        Where are all of the “Greater Singers” you know the One’s
        who can Pop their Snatchs and drop it like a Stripper on a
        Stripper pole?

        Where are the One’s who Rihanna’s haters loves to say SITS ON THEIR ASSES AND MAKE $$$$$$ DOING NOTHING,,,,,BRITNEY IS A DIAMONDS QUEEN AND HAS SOLD MORE THEN THE AVERAGE ARTIST HAS SOLD IN THEIR CAREERS BEFORE AGE 20,,,,,AND YEST THERE’S ALWAYS SLICK “S*****” COMMENTS DIRECTED TOWARD BRITNEY ALSO,,,,I SEE B=RITNEY ISN’T LETTING IT GET HER S*** ASS DOWN,,,

        At the end of the day this is what counts and what matters,,,,,
        Are better still where are the Others who ALWAYS DOES IT Better then Rih does?…

    • Peter G December 13, 2012

      I just knew the first b**** to comment would make a dig at Bey! But don’t worry Beyoncé will surpass your fave next year. She’s just having a rest from being on the list every year last decade! This year she had no tour, album or anything! The real story though is Rihanna at #3, she’s literally sold her soul with 2 new albums, endorsements, perfumes, tours but it wasn’t enough to get to the top. P double O R DAT!

      • Flop Cheeta Whora gave Rob an S** from her 20 guys December 13, 2012

        It is from 2011 and 2012 – so yes, beyonce had an album out in 2011

      • Peter G December 13, 2012

      • Peter G December 14, 2012

        Hahaha…Laxative that sounds a lot like the description for many Rih fans instead. I liked both Rihanna and Beyonce, but whenever I made slight criticism towards Rihanna, them Navy b****** tore me apart! I ain’t gonna stand for that and Beyoncé is a way better artist, so I decided I’ll join the fucken hive. And you know what it’s like Beyonce started winning and Rihanna stated flopping when I joined. I’m her good luck charm, so you better be nice to me cause the more I stan for Beyonce the more Rihanna flops. I have strong powers, I’m Jesus!

  3. DOSSOME December 13, 2012

    Congratulations are in order but you all know Mariah,Madonna and Celine are coming for these positions next year,right???

    • Benron (King of The Phucking Navi) December 13, 2012

      No, they’re not. Triumphant sold 23 copies and Celine is a skeleton looking vegas showgirl.

      Next years list would be May 2012 – May 2013…. they’ve already lost.

      • ƸӜƷ MC ƸӜƷ December 13, 2012

        *15 copies, stop inflating! Stop dissing Celine, I actually think she’s a fairy or some sort of mythical creature because she is so awesome. How can you hate on her so much? *cries*

      • Benron (King of The Phucking Navi) December 14, 2012

        @MC

        I am a NAVI! I inflate constantly. And idk who celine is tbh

    • DOSSOME December 13, 2012

      But Celine is making tonnes of money from Vegas…Madge is coming hard with MDNA tour and Mariah sold 67,000 copies or so this week with her christmas classic,i think that makes up for the 20 copies triumphant sold..and she has IDOL too

  4. RICHANDBLACK11(JUST LIKE BEY) December 13, 2012

    yass this goes to show that you can have an so called flop album and still get paid, but the shade is she did way less work than Rihanna and still came out #1. and before y’all throw shade at King Bey she only worked 5month and no tour.

    • Monstarebel December 13, 2012

      shut up h** 😉

      • RICHANDBLACK11(JUST LIKE BEY) December 13, 2012

    Congratulations ladies! Make those coins girl, make ’em. Where is the Queen though? I though with HIGHEST EARNING TOUR by ANYONE, she was gonna snatch those wigs bald, mercilessly? I mean those who are her granddaughter’s age is what I mean…..

    • Benron (King of The Phucking Navi) December 13, 2012

      where is the queen though

      #3 Rihanna

      Found her!

      • Benron (King of The Phucking Navi) December 13, 2012

        300 million what?

        Everyone users her tacky albums full of montoone singing as coasters anyway while listening ot Unapologetic. Rihanna is the black Madonna and madonna is an old, manly, wrinkly flop who isn’t on her level as of late #PoorDat

      • ƸӜƷ MC ƸӜƷ December 13, 2012

        300 MILLION RECORDS, b****. Your fave gets latched as the black MADONNA (key word being Madonna). There is only one Madonna, whether its black, purple, pink, white Asian, or whatever, and its Madonna Louise Ciccone. #DEAL

    • S****** Blonde December 13, 2012

      Exactly, bravo b****.

      • Lax December 14, 2012

        @MC YO FAVE CAN HANG IT UP,,,,BECAUSE…..
        BEY HIVE WILL SWEAR On a stack of Bibles that BEYONCE HAS 2013 LOCKED AND BOXED ALREADY, WITH HER BIG ENDORSEMENTS AND ALL,,,SO FALL BACK PERHAPS BETTER LUCK IN THE YEAR AFTER NEXT,,,,LMAO,,… Which reminds me that DR DRE got a 300 Million Deal, David Beckhan a 160 Million, Rihanna ex MATT KEMPT is the 160 Million dollar man and a friend of a friend of my family friend signed a 80 Million about 7 years ago and another 32 Million just the other year,,,So Bey Hive The world is still here and We all Still BLEED RED BLOOD when we are cut,,,,,HATEFUL BYTCHES!!!!!

  6. RICHANDBLACK11(JUST LIKE BEY) December 13, 2012

    I thought Taylor was local ……..hmmmmmm and she still made more money than y’all know who…..(she is stated by her navy that she is worldwide)

    • THE WHOLE WORLD LOVES RIHANNA!!! December 13, 2012

      NOW YOU know taylor money came from THE TEAPARTY REPUBLICAN USA WHITE AMERICA NOT WORLDWIDE

      • RICHANDBLACK11(JUST LIKE OBAMA AND BEY) December 14, 2012

        My point ….She is more of a stateside artist and still made more money

      • THE WHOLE WORLD LOVES RIHANNA!!! December 14, 2012

        Its because she is white!! just like pepsi paid britney more than bey! you know black women have to work harder

      • RICHANDBLACK11(JUST LIKE OBAMA AND BEY) December 14, 2012

        So with that said why do we have stan wars between both artist. They both are winning if you ask me. Happy Holidays babe

  7. S****** Blonde December 13, 2012

    Forbes and their list of the same young and famous Pop stars every year, Madonna should be #1, just because of her MDNA tour but she’s not and won’t even be next year as well because Forbes have issues with her, congrast to my girl Britney though, she’s a force in the industry and the others too.

    • ƸӜƷ MC ƸӜƷ December 13, 2012

      “Madonna should be #1, just because of her MDNA tour” !!!

      • S****** Blonde December 13, 2012

        @ƸӜƷ MC ƸӜƷ
        It is true though, she makes more money with her tour than all these girls put together.

    • DOSSOME December 13, 2012

      This is an old list….next years list looks like this
      1.MADONNA
      2.CELINE DION
      3.BEYONCE
      4MARIAH CAREY
      MADGE topped this list after her sticky and sweet tour so they don’t have an issue with her

      • S****** Blonde December 13, 2012

        @DOSSOME
        Yeah but she also make money with other ventures like these girls but they only go for the tour.

      • DOSSOME December 13, 2012

        Forbes doesn’t factor in figures made from royalties because mariah and ms.barbara streisand would’ve been making this list every year…i also doubt madonna presents her earnings to forbes for tabulation when she isn’t doing anything major in the scene because these lists are pure PROMO tools these young artists depend on to appear successful

      • S****** Blonde December 13, 2012

        @DOSSOME
        Well, you right on that.

      • Flop Cheeta Whora gave Rob an S** from her 20 guys December 13, 2012

        Lady gaga will out earn beyonce., She is white and does stadium tours all over the world. Beyonce could never. Her RNB LP will not even sell a million

      • TinaMinaj December 14, 2012

        @DOSSOME actually they do. Madonna was listed. Please read the article. She only made 30million (without her tour that is) That happened in the other half of the year so it will go towards next year.
        Those artists made that money, there is no PROMO tool here. The only thing to consider is the fees they and other expenses they raked up e.g management

    • Gilberto December 13, 2012

      @S****** Blonde

      That list is from May 2011 to May 2012. Madonna started her tour in late May 2012, so they didn’t include anything from MDNA era and the tour. On other hand, she’ll be on a high spot next year.

      • Lax December 14, 2012

        I AM WAITING FOR THE BEYONCE BEY HIVE TO START BRAGGING ABOUT HOW BRITNEY WAS THE PEPSI CHICK SOME TIME AGO AND NOW BEY IS IN THE DRIVERS SEAT,,,,NONE OF US R GOING TO BE ABLE TO BUY A SINGLE ROLL OF TOLIET TISSUE ANY WAYS FROM BEYONCE ARE ANY OF THE OTHERS $$$$$$

    Where is Adele? She scalped everybody and their grandmothers for 2 years……

    • DOSSOME December 13, 2012

      I think that has to do with fact that she did nothing else other than selling records and i doubt she made over 50 million doing that…..anyways i still can’t at only gettin 1 nomination in your entire poll *throws tantrum*

      • ƸӜƷ MC ƸӜƷ December 13, 2012

      • Flop Cheeta Whora gave Rob an S** from her 20 guys December 13, 2012

        And rih two new movies, plus the tv royalties she gets from Styled to rock airing in the USA, Canada and all over the world. Her singles and LP are still selling. She gets paid millions to sing at B day parties all over the world. ETC. Her fragrance is selling etc. at 24, she is making more money than Beyonce ever made.

    • DOSSOME December 13, 2012

      Damn right beyonce would rank higher next year but regarding the pepsi deal,please allow me agree with beyonce’s weave and sybil by stating that’s a 360 contract,the kind that explains why Madonna made $70 million after grossing over 400 million from her last tour

      • TinaMinaj December 14, 2012

        Don’t you think you should wait till the deal comes around and all is said and done before jumping to the conclusion that it is a 360 contract? Because even FORBES analysts did not call it a 360 deal so…..

      • TRUTH SERUM December 14, 2012

        Beyonce doesn’t have a 360 deal… Dummy… Never had one… Hence why she makes half off her albums and pay the producers out of her own pocket… If she had a 360 deal, she wouldn’t be at the 400 million mark in net worth. People are so damn stupid.

      • aynon December 14, 2012

        Music not entertainment… Rihanna’s not on the entertainment.

        Beyonce was 5th on the list behind the legends, Madonna, Barbra, Celine and then Shakira earning a cool $27 Million adjust that to inflation and it’s basically the same amount as rihanna has earn’t this year.

        http://www.thelifefiles.com/2008/01/30/forbes-richest-women-in-music-2007-list/

        about Rihanna out earning beyonce, don’t even try it.

  10. Nichole December 13, 2012

    Thiefyonce who? Lol. At least Brit, Taylor and Rihanna don’t need a Pepsi deal to make sure their next album is a success.

    And Beyonce was every where last year, and the only difference is that she used a fake pregnancy to sell records.

    Anywhoo. Brit is still the #1 female pop superstar in the game. S&S went to #1 in over 30 countries on iTunes, and is a ww hit. The queen of thieves couldn’t even do that when she was a feature on Telephone.

    • Flop Cheeta Whora gave Rob an S** from her 20 guys December 13, 2012

      Beyonce is scared to drop her single.

    • irene46 December 13, 2012

      britney has every entertainment media source on the planet jocking her (including tgj) to convince everyone she’s still relevant.

      at least bey (or any other female) doesn’t have blog sites set up by zoned out die hard fans that campaign one another to buy repeated copies of her albums to enable them to reach platinum status. britney does.

      x factor comes off like a weekly britney promo with sickening phoney overdone praises.

      britney is the #1 female pop superstar to those fans still dwelling in 1999-2003.

      • OK December 14, 2012

        I like Britney but yeah, some of her fans act like this is still the “Oops! I Did It Again” and “S**** 4 U” eras.

    • Gilberto December 13, 2012

      @Nichole
      “Brit is still the #1 female pop superstar in the game.”
      How is she “the #1 pop superstar in the game” when her album failed to sell 1 million in USA? :sips pepsi:
      Her career is so over that they made her join on X-Factor trying to revive her career. Well, as we know, that show is a FLOP, so Britney’s career is pretty dead by now. If you don’t know Britney dropped XF ratings. Before Britney, the show had better ratings than now. LOL. You’re mad because Britney homage in VMA ’11 was actually the opening of Beyoncé’s performace. LOL. Britney’s lame tribute only saw dust after Beyoncé stated to sing. Actually, you’re mad because Britney can’t sing, dance, act, don’t care about her career while Beyoncé keeps slaying her since 2003.

      • Flop Cheeta Whora gave Rob an S** from her 20 guys December 13, 2012

        even though she’s playing 5 stadiums in Western Europe and only the London dates are Sold out, meanwhile Beyonce and GaGa have literally sold out stadiums worldwide, South America, Japan, Europe, Africa. not just London.

    • OK December 14, 2012

      Seeing how Femme Fatale failed to crack 1 million sold domestically, Brit might NEED that Pepsi deal, especially since the first week sales for her eighth album–if there is one–most likely will be *lower* than the 276k FF sold.

  11. pete December 13, 2012

    THE LIST IS BASED ON EARNINGS FROM MAY 2011 TO MAY 2012. X-FACTOR NOT INCLUDED!!!! IT’S BRITNEY B****!!!

      And for came out during that time. TTT came out much later. So rih still wins. But when Beyonce was 24, she was not even on the rich list for forbes, This is Rih second time. She will out earn Beyonce by the next 2 or 3 years.

    This is why Beyonce is jealous of Rih. When Beyonce was 24, back in 2007, on the heels of BDAY. She was not even on the forbes list His is the list

    http://www.forbes.com/2007/01/17/richest-women-entertainment-tech-media-cz_lg_richwomen07_0118womenstars_lander.html Britney is the only singer. Rih has been on this forbes list twice – last year she made $52 million for herself. By the time Rih is 26 / 27 she will be richer than beyonce/ Never was beyonce earning over $ 50 million and debuting in the forbes rich list. Never

      • Hush December 14, 2012

        Um, Beyoncé is 31…and I highly doubt that Rihanna is going to close that 300+ million gap between hers and Beyonce’s networth in the next 7 years. *laughs*

        Girl group…shady daddy…stealing songs…meh, whatever. The fact remains that Rihanna isn’t even 1/2 as rich as Beyoncé, and at this rate she never will be.

    And also may I remind the Navy that Beyonce has made most of her money in her Solo career she was worth about 1.6 Million in 2003.

    in 9 years Beyonce has made nearly $390 Million.

    in 7 years Rihanna has made $100 Million…

    Do the maths navy, Oh wait I remember : you can’t because your’e all delusional so ill do it for you…

    Thier money making careers have only 2 years between them.

    Or maybe it is TGJ that always gives the info in a partial and biased way
    I mean, Madonna is making more money than these other ones this very year (again) for damn sure
    Not to mention you don´t believe these girls earned those many millions right??? You know it is “only” the millions they GENERATED right???
    I´m sure Madonna is taking more than them
    And Celine Dion has been in these lists at the very top for many years this last decade so don´t know why now all of a sudden she is not there cos she is sure still selling out shows in Vegas and selling albums like crazy (500,000 copies in France ALONE and this last month ALONE)

    Beyonce was worth only 1.6 million dollars in 2001 but Destiny’s child is the best selling female group of all time? Something doesn’t seem right with those numbers

    Beyoncé Giselle Knowles-Carter

    Net Worth: $300 million

    Source of Wealth: music

    Born: September 4, 1981 in Houston, Texas,

    Children: 1

    Beyoncé Knowles rose to stardom as lead vocalist of the R&B girl group Destiny’s Child. The group was very successful, releasing four platinum albums: Destiny’s Child (1998), The Writing’s on the Wall (1999), Survivor (2001), and Destiny Fulfilled (2004).

    While enjoying her group’s great success, Beyoncé began exploring film projects. She starred in MTV’s musical film Carmen: A Hip Hopera (2001), alongside Mekhi Phifer. The following year she co-starred in the spy parody Austin Powers in Goldmember, opposite Mike Myers. Her other movies include Dreamgirls (2006), and Obsessed (2009).

    In 2003, she released her first solo album, Dangerously in Love. It sold 317,000 copies in its first week. It also earned Knowles five Grammy Awards. In 2006, she released her second solo album B’Day, which sold 541,000 copies in its first week. The album was also nominated for five Grammy Awards. Her other albums include I Am… Sasha Fierce (2008) and 4 (2011).

    How much money does Beyonce make?

    Annual earnings according to Forbes:
    2012: $40 million
    2011: $35 million
    2010: $87 million
    2009: $87 million
    2008: $80 million
    2004: $23 million

    Salary:
    Austin Powers in Goldmember (2002) $3,000,000
    The Fighting Temptations (2003) $1,500,000
    Concert tours

    “I Am… Tour” (2009-10) – grossed $119.5 million in 108 total shows ($1.1 million per show).

    “The Beyoncé Experience” (2007) – worldwide tour that grossed $90 million in 97 shows.

    Endorsement income and other business ventures

    She makes about $10 million annually from endorsements. She has gotten endorsement deals with PepsiCo, DirecTV, L’Oréal, Giorgio Armani, Nintendo Co., American Express, Crystal Geyser,General Mills, Tommy Hilfiger Corporation, Vizio, and Samantha Thavasa handbags.

    In 2005, Beyonce and her mother, Tina, created the fashion line, House of Deréon. In 2010, she released her first first perfume, Heat. Macy’s sold $3 million worth of Heat in its first 3 months. —-> source was from Celebrity networth.

    She obviously made a ton of cash and had plenty endorsements before her solo career started. She never made over 100 million dollars in earnings so who came out with that? From the data that is presented Beyonce only had 2 GREAT eras and they were 2009 and 2010 the rest show that she declined over 40 million dollars worth of cash. For the beehive members to be making her sound like she is all that and seeing her annual income for those years are pathetic. why isn’t she pulling Madonna numbers? Michael Jackson numbers? U2 numbers? If she is the top b**** in the game then how come she isn’t making cash now? Why is she on a decline? she managed to only get an increase of 5 million the year before? The f*** is that s***, that’s pathetic. Also to the one’s who throw that 50 million dollar deal with pepsi um her deal was to be involved in promotional campaigns, superbowl and to pay for her album or whatever else she wants to do in that year. It’s not like they are giving her 50 million dollars. So that won’t be added to her income at the end of the forbes year.

    “Beyonce has signed a $50 million deal with Pepsi, The New York Times reports. The agreement includes traditional promotional appearances and a new commercial, but also the beverage company’s investment in a number of the singer’s creative projects.” —> source from Huffington post

    These delusional stans I tell you always making up b******* stats when you know your fave is on the decline thus why she needs so much heavy promotion now. She needs to make more than 50 million dollars this time around.

    Britney is definitely blessed…chick does not sing, dance or even try to look “put together” and earns money. God, do the same for me! Please! I’ve suffered long enough!

      she’s blessed with media jocking for her that keep her fans deluded.

      how many female artist’s albums get certified platinum when they haven’t even been certified gold? she’s got the entertainment media and industry workin’ it for her.
