Taylor's not going to do it. She doesn't have a brand big enough and her tours, while always successful, don't gross enough to land her $100m. In order for any of the younger girls to do this, they would have to release an album, tour, have several endorsements, and peak all during the tracking period that Forbes has. Madonna did it because of her massive tour. Celine did it because of her massive residency. Beyonce did it because of a tour and massive endorsements. These girls are an exception to the rule, no one else has the luxury or power to do it.

I honestly don't see anyone doing it any time soon. Gaga was the closest with $90m in 2010 (or was it 2011?) and that was during one of the biggest popstar peaks we've seen since Madonna herself. If Gaga couldn't do it then, no one will do it now.

It took Katy six years and 403 different endorsement deals to make that. Meanwhile, Gaga was pulling in $90m during her second year in the business.
