It seems Queen Bey won’t be losing her reigning title anytime soon. Today Forbes have shared their ”Celebrity 100 List” and as you’ve guessed, Beyoncé has taken number one spot. Starting in 2013 the Houston artist began with ‘The Mrs. Carter Show World Tour’; simultaneously she later unexpectedly released her fifth studio album which went to become the fastest selling album in iTunes history with leading single “Drunk In Love” currently sitting at platinum status. With that done and dusted she continued her tour covering a grand total of 132 dates worldwide. Moments after just finishing, she quickly moved onto her collaborative tour titled ‘On The Run’ with husband Jay Z which has already been set to become the second highest grossing tour ever. Music aside, other lucrative ventures include endorsement deals with H&M, Pepsi, her fragrance line and finally her clothing line House of Dereon. As of now, Forbes has reported that Beyoncé has earned an estimated $115 million between June 1, 2013 to June 1, 2014.
