Yesterday, Forbes magazine released their list of the Best-Paid Celebrities Under 30. Coming in at #1 on the list is Beyoncé Knowles! The singer earned an amazing total of $87 million!! That is nearly double the
income of Kimi Raikkonen, who came in second place with $45 million.
Forbes said of 27-year-old Beyoncé,
In the last year, Queen B dropped a double album, starred in two films, performed at both the Oscars and a Presidential Inaugural Ball and embarked on what is expected to be, at minimum, a 110-date international tour. She also expanded a fashion collection that includes casual and formal lines as well as jewelry and eyeglasses, and added sponsors Nintendo, Crystal Geyser and General Mills to a roster of endorsers already including L’Oréal, Giorgio Armani and Samantha Thavasa handbags.
My goodness! Looking at it all laid out like that is insane! The woman really does work like an animal. She’s accomplished so much and she is still at a young age! It’s just an example to setting your mind to something and believing in yourself. At least she says she’ll be taking a two year break in the future, because I think she does need to take a break. With her and Jay-Z’s income they are living the really, really good life.
