He is ahead of many athletes, as well as his brother-in-law.
American reality TV star Kylie Jenner was named the highest-grossing celebrity of the past year by the American magazine Forbes on Wednesday. It has actually earned EUR 485 million in the last twelve months, especially thanks to the sale of a majority share (51%) of its brand of beauty products Kylie Cosmetics to the company Coty Inc.
American rapper Kanye West, brother-in-law of Kylie Jenner, ranks second on the list with earnings of 140 million euros. He mainly attributes his collaboration with Adidas, which markets the Yeezy brand sneakers, resulting in their partnership. The top 10 in the standings are tennis players Roger Federer (87.4 million euros), footballer Cristiano Ronaldo (86.4 million), Lionel Messi (85.5 million) and Neymar (78.7 million), and basketball player Lebron James (72.8 million).
The highest-paid celebrities won a combined $ 5 billion. Which is 164 million euros less than last year. It is the first fall since 2016 after the most expensive fight in boxing history between Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao. The boxers had won nearly half a billion dollars in total as a result of the duel. According to Forbes, the decline is due to the coronavirus epidemic, which has suppressed music and sports competitions around the world.
