Here is a list of the Divas we love who earned the most this year.

Taylor Swift- 185 Million

Okay, when is our girl Taylor going to stop killing it? Probably, never. We swear year after year she is just getting a bigger and stronger fan base and this year was no exception. She was in the news quite a bit this year with the very public fight between Scooter Braun and herself over her old record label Big Machine Records and not being able to own her own music she has been writing since she was a kid. But, in Taylor Swift fashion she came out on top winning the award for artist of the decade at the American Music Awards and being able to sing some of her more classic songs. This was a big year for Taylor!

Kylie Jenner- 170 Million

The Kardashian-Jenner family is always in the news for one thing or another, but 2019 was the year for Kylie. Kylie became the youngest self-made billionaire ever this year beating Mark Zuckerberg through her Kylie Cosmetics line. Her super-popular lip kits use to just be sold through her website and through pop up shops every once in a while, but this year she signed a deal with Ulta to have her kits be sold there also. This Ulta deal made her company skyrocket to be worth a billionaire dollars and she owns the whole company making her the billionaire. Go Kylie! Check out her lip kits on the Ulta website here! 

J.K. Rowling- 92 Million

Even though J.K. Rowling has hit some controversy towards the end of this year with her tweet that managed to hurt a lot of individuals in the LGBTQ+ community, she still had one of the most successful years amongst all celebrities. We know J.K Rowling as the author who wrote the beloved Harry Potter Series, and even though that series finished awhile back she won't stop raking in the money from that series for quite some time. She earns money off of all the book sells, the broadway musical The Cursed Child, and she even earns money from the Universal Studios theme park which has a Harry Potter world. So even though she didn't release one single book this year, it was still an amazing year for her!

Beyonce- 81 Million

When is it not Beyonce's year? This year was another big one for Beyonce releasing her live album, being Nala in the new Lion King that came out this summer, and releasing another album Lion King: The Gift.

Everyone was freaking out when last year she performed at Coachella so it was such an amazing treat for those of us that didn't go that earlier this year she released Homecoming: The Live Album which is what she sang at Coachella and also the Netflix documentary of her preparing for this big performance. Her performing as one of the biggest Disney classic characters didn't hurt for high salary this year either. Can't wait for what Bey does next.

Ellen DeGeneres- 80.5 Million

At 61 years old, Ellen is showing no signs of stopping anytime soon. She just announced this year that her ever-popular talk show will at least have 3 more seasons, but we doubt she will be done making us laugh after just three seasons. She is in her 17th season right now which is incredible and also has another primetime show called "The Game of Games" which is exactly like it sounds (playing tons of silly games). She is also producing a children's show on Netflix currently.

Kim Kardashian West- 72 Million

Here is our second family member from the Kardashian-Jenner clan to make the list. Kim is always hustling to make her money. She does not shy away from the fact that she loves money and has all sorts of businesses to earn lots of it. Whether from her show Keeping Up With The Kardashians, her KKW makeup line, or her social media she is doing whatever it takes to stay on top and it's working.

Rihanna- 62 Million

Even though you probably haven't heard new music from Rihanna in quite some time, she is still killing the game. If you haven't heard she has this super successful brand shes made called Fenty and it is doing incredible. Fenty is a fashion line, a makeup line, and a skincare line. It's known for a brand that has makeup for even the darkest African American beauties. She says she will be releasing new music soon, but even if she doesn't it isn't hurting her income one bit.

Katy Perry-57.5 Million

Katy Perry is one of the judges on the reboot of the singing talent show American Idol and it was all over the news this year of her shockingly high salary for the show. She made 25 million for this 2019 season while Luke Bryan made 12 million and Lionel Richie made 10 million.

She fought to get that kind of salary and well, she won. She also has released quite a few songs this year that have no doubt been hits since it is we mean Katy Perry who will always be loved.

Pink- 57 Million

Pink has been around for some time and has always been the feisty, opinionated woman that we all adore. This February she received a huge honor when she was awarded a star on the Hollywood walk of fame. She also released her eighth solo album Hurts 2B Home this April. We love Pink and hope she keeps showing off those magical pipes forever!

Scarlett Johansson- 56 Million

You might have heard of a little film Scarlett Johansson was in called Avengers: Endgame. Just kidding, it was more than a little film it was one of the biggest movies of the year with Scarlett playing the superstar Black Widow. You might have also seen the amazing previews for her solo movie Black Widow coming out in May 2020. That is bound to bring in the big bucks as well.
