Forbes reports that 2013-14. These singers earn the majority of their income from tour-dates and endorsement contracts.
Forbes’ five top earning women in music:
Beyoncé - $115m
 |
| Description: Forbes reports that 2013-14 was “the biggest year of Beyoncé’s career”: a bestselling new album, which is soon to be reissued; clothing and fragrance lines; sponsorships from H&M and Pepsi; and above all a hugely profitable tour. The singer played 95 gigs in the past year, grossing an average of $2.4m (£1.5m) in each city. It is no wonder she has been named 2014’s top-earning woman in music, doubling her earnings from the year before. The 33-year-old singer grew her fortune by an estimated $115m (£71.8m) in just 12 months. |
Taylor Swift - $64m
 |
| Description: Taylor Swift was the year’s second most profiting female musician, earning a career-high $64m (£40m). This figure does not include any of the money from Swift’s new record, 1989, which has sold more than 1.5m copies during its first week on sale. |
Pink - $52m
 |
| Description: Interestingly, the sale of music is not particularly important to any of the top-earning female musicians. Of the Forbes list’s top five, only Beyoncé and Katy Perry released albums this year: Swift, Rihanna and Pink earned tens of millions without the benefit of new music. |
Rihanna - $48m
