She’s closely followed by Celine Dion who comes in second position with $400 million while Barbra Streisand clinches the third position with $390 million.

Beyonce comes in 4th position with $350 million as her last year’s Lemonade album and the Formation World Tour reportedly grossed a quarter of a billion dollars.
