Britney Spears | Musician | $21.5 Million

She is one of the breakout artists of the early 2000s, gaining worldwide fame through her chart-topper Baby One More Time. Britney Spears is certainly no one-hit-wonder, however. In fact, she has sold over 100 million records around the world and still manages to maintain a successful run, even venturing into acting and various businesses during her career. Among the many projects she has worked on along the way include her time as a child star in The Mickey Mouse Club and her role in the films Crossroads and Austin Powers in Goldmember. She’s also released her very own limited edition shades and worked alongside big-named brands like Skechers and Pepsi.

Outside of touring, she has also done residencies at Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas, signing a $30-million contract with her lawyer back in 2012. 2017 saw her closing the show for Britney: Piece of Me, which brought in $1.172 million—a box office record for a Las Vegas show.
