Dr. Dre Tops Beyoncé On Forbes's 2014 Highest-Paid Musicians List
While she hangs out with royaltyin her spare time and is often referred to as Queen Bey,Beyoncé didn't reign supreme onForbes's annual World's Highest Paid Musicians list.
That honor goes to rapper, producer and Beats founder Dr. Dre.
According to the magazine, Dr. Dre, 49, earned $620 million before taxes in 2014, mostly due to a deal with Apple in which he sold his Beats company for $3 billion. The sale added nicely to the $40 million he earned last year.
Knowles, 33, who topped the Forbes Celebrity 100 list in June, came in just behind Dr. Dre, landing the second spot. She made $115 million in 2014, credited largely to her world tour, a surprise album and numerous endorsement deals.
