Beyonc\u00e9 and Adele lead\u00a0Forbes Magazine’s 2017 list of highest-paid women in music.\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Beyonc\u00e9 is the\u00a0highest-paid woman in music, pulling in a whopping\u00a0$105 million pretax, according to Forbes<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Adele on Beyonce: ‘She is Jesus F*cking Christ’. On picture, both attend the 55th Annual GRAMMY Awards at STAPLES Center on February 10, 2013 in Los Angeles, California.<\/p><\/div>\n

As her album “Lemonade<\/a>” hit stores on April 2016, Queen B established herself as queen of music and income over Adele and Taylor Swift, becoming the only person on the list to hit the nine-figures milestone.<\/p>\n

Earning roughly two-thirds of Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s total, Adele comes in second with a\u00a0$69 million-dollar income.<\/p>\n

Taylor Swift ($44 million),\u00a0Celine Dion ($42 million), and Jennifer Lopez ($38 million) rank third, fourth, and fifth, respectively.<\/p>\n

Following the top 5 high-earning woman in music are\u00a071-year-old Dolly Parton, who ranks at no. 6 with a $37 million mark; Rihanna ($36 million), Britney Spears ($34 million) and Katy Perry, who closes in at $33 million.<\/p>\n

Women on the rise but still lacking<\/strong><\/h6>\n

Despite the success of the female stars on the final list, there are regrettably still more than twice as many men than women among music’s top-earning stars, Forbes reports.<\/p>\n

For example, Diddy is the top-earning musician on the planet, pulling in a career-best $130 million pretax this year; Beyonc\u00e9 comes in second.<\/p>\n

Forbes reported<\/a> Drake rounds out the top three of the world’s highest-paid musicians of 2017 with $94 million in income.<\/p>\n

The ways of the Forbes study<\/strong><\/h6>\n

In order to define the list, Forbes looked at pretax income from June 1, 2016 through June 1, 2017, then gathered the data\u00a0from Nielsen SoundScan<\/a>, Pollstar<\/a>, the RIAA<\/a> and interviews with industry insiders.<\/p>\n

The final results did not take out fees charged by agents, managers, lawyers, and anyone else on the divas\u2019 payrolls.<\/p>\n

Finally, all\u00a0double-digit millions did not win themselves a spot on this vaunted list, as Madonna, Ariana Grande and Selena Gomez did not reach the profit received by others.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
