Filled with A-listers…

Having just dropped their list of the World’s Highest-Paid Athletes For 2020 days ago, its clear they have no intention of slowing down, again dropping another list concerning the highest-paid celebs for 2020.

The list considers pretax earnings from June 2019 to May 2020, excluding account fees for managers, agents and legal teams. As a result, the Kardashian family came out on top this year, with Kylie Jenner bagging the top spot at a staggering $590 million USD ($849 million AUD) and Kanye West at number two with $170 million ($245 million AUD). Kylie’s win comes just a week after Forbes claimed she lied about being a billionaire, to which she called them out. Forbes claim she copped the number one spot due to her cashing out of her 51% stake in her cosmetics empire earlier this year, which is “one of the biggest celebrity cashouts of all time”.

Other top ten entrants include Roger Federer (No. 3), Cristiano Ronaldo (No. 4), and LeBron James (No. 9)  from the sporting world, as well as radio legend Howard Stern (No. 8) and movie star Dwayne Johnson (No. 10), who rounded out the top ten. Other honourable mentions include Ariana Grande (No. 17) and Billie Eilish (No. 43)
