Who is the top-earning woman in the music biz? Here’s a hint: It’s not Taylor Swift.
No, it’s actually Taylor’s purported rival, Katy Perry. Forbes magazine has calculated that Katy has earned 135 million dollars this year, thanks in large part to her Prismatic World Tour.
Taylor, who’s toured in support of her most recent album, 1989, this year, ranks second, with 80 million dollars.
Fleetwood Mac ($59.5 million), whose members include Stevie Nicks and Christine McVie; Lady Gaga($59 million); and Beyoncé ($54.5 million) round out the top five.
