Congratulations to the 5 top highest grossing female artists of 2016

 

#5 BEYONCE

$54 Million 

 

 

Beyonce made some big bucks on her 6th studio album, Lemonade which reached No.1 however, the majority of her sales are made on the road, touring.

 

#4 RIHANNA

 

 

Between endorsement deals (Stance, Dior, Samsung and Puma), a sold out tour and radio hits, it’s no wonder RiRi made $75 Million. 

 

#3 MADONNA

 

 

Madonna earns $76.5 Million, which most of her earnings came from her Rebel Heart Tour.

 

#2 ADELE

 

 

Adele earned $80.5 Million between her album and tour sales.  Her album 25, was the best selling album of 2015 and all of her concert performances were instantly sold out.

 

And at #1 …

 

TAYLOR SWIFT

$170 Million 

 

 

Taylor Swift is considered to be the highest paid woman in music.  Between her 1989 Tour which earned a quarter of a billion dollars and her 1989 album which included one of her best selling singles, Wildest Dreams, it’s no wonder Taylor is ahead of the game.
