according to last year's Forbes, his tours with Queen has not been counted, it will count for 2015 tho... expect him to earn a lot in 2015!
King Phillip earning $5M for 2013 and 2014

Well, her first two eras were pretty successful.
She tours quite a bit, and has a couple endorsement deals, I believe.
And some sort of misc. product line, I think.
Going by her new reality show, that is.

Scootty's debut sold really well and he's a country artist, he's been doing decent for years.

She's been earning around $1-2M per year I think, except for one year where she earned $8M..

I'm aware of that but still 11M is a lot money considering his success. Even Demi who's been in the industry for years is only @15M
