Yep, it's that time of the year again as Forbes has shared their coveted Celebrity 100 list of highest paid entertainers for the year of 2019 and it once again includes beauty business mogul Kylie Jenner and American rapper Kanye West (the shade of it all).

The "You Need To Calm Down" singer came out on top this year earning a reported $185 million.

Coming in second is Kylie Jenner who earned an estimated $170 million.

Nemesis, Kanye came in third with a reported $150 million earning after a four-year disappearance on the list thanks to his partnership with Adidas for his popular Yeezy sneaker shoe line.

 

 

How did Taylor do it you ask?

It's all thanks to her massive 2018 'Reputation Stadium Tour' including the 29-year-old's partnership with Netflix to bring the entire thing to living rooms across the world on New Year's Eve and sponsorship deals with Coca-Cola and Apple.

See the full list of winners including singer Ed Sheeran and famous soccer players Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo and more here.
