Nothing? You do know Adele is like worth $50M, did you forget that there something called money converting. and don't forget most of those artist are locals to their countries compared to some of our popstars who are global.

If this is accurate she's actually worth $70m.
You have to multiply by 1.68 to convert to dollars. Mess at being worth $20m+ being "nothing"
I thought the guy from One direction was more rich . maybe next year with stadium tour sold-out .
It's estimated that the Stadium Tour will bring them around 15 million pounds each. Adding other stuff they'll probably be at least at 30 million pounds each next year (that's over $250 million combined).
