Less than a week after Forbes and Kylie Jenner were at war with each other over accusations that she doctored documents claiming that she’s a billionaire, they’ve returned with an entirely new list. This time, they’re ranking the top 20 highest paid celebrities of 2020.
According to 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 COVID-19. The top earning celebrities were Kylie Jenner and her brother-in-law Koonye West, who brought in $590 million and $170 million, respectively.
While most of Koonye’s earnings came from his line of overpriced Yeezy sneakers and clothing, Jenner’s income came via selling a 51% stake in her cosmetics firm Kylie to Coty in January.
Three streaming giants doled out $300 million to stars on the list, including Ryan Reynolds (No. 18, $71.5 million), Billie Eilish (No. 43, $53 million) and Jerry Seinfeld (No. 46, $51 million), with Netflix paying out more than two thirds of that.
The list consists of 100 musicians and their earnings, but I’ve compiled a top 20 list of highest paid celebrities and musicians, which you can check out below…
