But how much were Katy and Gaga making at 23? #oop

Age doesn't matter, how long you are in the business does

Money is money. Her salary is more than enough for a normal person and for her.

They act like every popster is like 50 except for Rihanna. And my point was to show it doesn't MATTER if you compare ages if an older person is making more

[Last Boy on Earth]

Those "2012 wishes" were from "The Sun" and who doesn't want more money?

[pink.hearts]

I've always been curious about this though, like as big as a star as she is or w/e one would think that she would have made the list atleast once. If she isn't on it this year she may want to reconsider her contract/the people on her team

[Last Boy on Earth]

At people shading saying she gets as much money as she does on stage, meanwhile ya'll work your asses off and will never see 10% of the money she made in 1 year in your entire life when the only thing she does is walk, sing and step in the studio

Girl shut up, how is she broke when she is worth almost 100M and made 29M last year?

I didn't say she was broke, I was responding to "Rihanna ain't mad at her salary"

Yet you used the obvious corny rumor saying she was broke

Why is Forbes what everyone only cares about? ****.

Because Forbes takes everything people on ATRL brag about, combines them, and makes a list of the Top 100 worthy celebs. Music sales, Relevancy, Power, etc.

Girl no one gives a **** about a Forbes list except for a bunch of lonely outcasts on an internet forum, Rihanna is raking in tens of millions more than billions of people around the globe do annually and she doesn't need a position on a list to tell her that.

I'm sure if she makes the list it'll be a different story with the navy, but ok.

1. Then she's made nearly 100 million in the past 4 years?
2. Everyone wants more money.

1. Rihanna as a "brand" is worth much more that she actually has in the bank. Her management invested her own money in future releases after GGGB and the "20k" was the result, you should know this as a fan, it was a major kii back in the day

2. Not everyone making millions feels the need to put "making more money" on new years wish-list.

Obviously I've heard of the rumor, genius, but there's no substantial proof.

But what 24-year-old doesn't have money on their mind?

Girl, nobody cares if Rihanna is overpaid or not outside ATRL, and yet you're here discussing it like a lonely outcast

They SAY she doesn't give a **** about her performance skills, that she just does the same old 2-step on stage and can't sing at all. But they're the first ones to run into this thread and say she is underpaid. I don't understand the logic.

Katy and Gaga actually write their songs (idk how much Katy writes of hers though), and judging by a previous post, cutting out the staff to scribe a song makes the expense significantly less. Meaning if Rihanna actually tried she would make more

Well she wrote a lot of songs on Rated R and many songs on Talk That Talk so.......

Rihanna made 29$

The Barbados-born singer grossed $1 million per night in 38 shows over the past 12 months; added more with strong sales of new album Loud, digital singles and endorsements with CoverGirl, Secret and others.

She toured.

Being credited as the fourth co-writer in a few tracks =/= write a lot of songs.
