Both Madonna and Beyonce have enjoyed massive successes in their lengthy careers – a feat that’s led to many-a-fan deservedly christening them “queens.” But, when it comes to Forbes 2015 ‘America’s Richest Self-Made Women’s’ list, due in full on June 15th, only one diva claims the crown – Madge.
Living up to her longtime moniker once again, the Material Girl’s earnings see her leave nearest competitors Bey, Taylor Swift & Mariah Carey in the dust as her once-misreported billion dollar fortune actually creeps closer to reality.
Get the details below:
Madonna claims the No. 28 spot on our list of America’s Richest Self-Made Women, which appeared in the June 15th, 2015 issue of FORBES magazine. She’s the wealthiest musician on the list.
One of the top pop divas of all time. Her tours have grossed an estimated $1.2 billion over the years, including $305 million from her 2012 MDNA tour. That helped her earn an estimated $125 million during the ensuing 12-month period during which FORBES calculated celebrity earnings, more than any other musician.
That number is only set to increase as the diva hits the road for her 2015-16 ‘Rebel Heart’ tour.
