Forbes Releases List of Highest Paid Celebrities & Musicians of 2020

Forbes Releases List of Highest Paid Celebrities & Musicians of 2020

And just like that, Forbes has returned with another confident list, this time ranking the top paid celebrities of 2020.

According the publication, the highest-paid celebrities earned a combined $6.1 billion before taxes and fees, a $200 million drop from 2019 which can be blamed on the global pandemic that we are in currently. The top earning celebrities were Kylie Jenner and her brother-in-law Kanye West​, who brought in $590 million and $170 million, respectively. While most of Kanye’s earnings came from his Yeezy line of sneakers and clothing, Jenner’s came from selling a 51% stake ​in her cosmetics firm Kylie to Coty in January.

Forbes had published an article last week about how Kylie misrepresented her earnings and was in fact not a billionaire, as previously reported. Although the list that has been released is for the 100 most paid celebrities, we filtered the top 20 musicians out of it for our readers’ convenience.

Trailing Kanye is Elton John at $81 million and Ariana Grande at $72 million, making the latter the highest paid female musician from the list. Canadian superstar Drake comes in at #15 with earnings of about $49 million, according to Forbes.
