Must be niceeee. Good people are making their money. Oprah is always on top. lol

Big ups to Beyonce for holding it down on such a male dominated list.Oprah is amazing and it’s great for black women to see someone as intelligent and dignified as her topping the list.I LOVE BLACK PEOPLE!!!!

Yes she is… Black people are on the rise…

Oprah is killin ‘em…..

I’m so proud of my people!!

It inspires me to continue my own hustle.

*yelling* GO OPRAH GO!!! Lol…I’m proud of Jay most definitely “From Marcy to Hollywood”!!!

BLACK STAR POWER!

I sure pray that my name is on that list some day. Lord willing…

Is this list accurate????? Will Smith makes more than the guy listed with 1 million and I know the Queen should be in there someplace and there is one singer I know made the 1mill mark or more, I know for a fact.
Not being funny. Congratulations everyone.
maybe everyone does not disclose their true earnings.

lol @ Jordan still on the hustle. You taking notes Tyson? Now I know why Jaime stay on Oprah like flies on $hit.

What happened to Magic & Bob Johnson? I guess their attention has been a little diverted.

What about Tyler Perry???? I know he would fit in their someplace if they mention someone making 1 million.

i’m suprised puffy didn’t make this list

SHAQ MADE MONEY?? HE WAS GETTIN HURT MORE THAN HE WAS ON THA COURT!!!! THANK GOD THEY TRADED HIM TO THE SUNS NOW MY HEAT CANT FINNALLY GET IT TOGETHER!!

@10.. the last dude is a spoof. They said “list of 10,” and he’s the 11th on the list. Besides, $.001Million is not 1 mill. We as a people really need to up our math game. lol

WORK black people!!!!!

Michale Jordan STILL makin that cash…..I LOVE IT!

Tiger woods aint black. He doesn’t like being called black and we as black people need to stop claiming his cablasian ass.

yo nigga can i hold a hot twenty?

WOW!!!!!!! at Oprah making 260 in a year.

I know Tyler Perry made more than 1 million last year???????
and yea, I do not think this is accurate either and where is Will smith and Denzels name I know they too made more than 1 million if this guy made top ten.This list is not accurate.

IT’LL BE A MIN BEFORE SOMEBODY KNOCKS OPRAH OFF THE TOP…

I THOUGHT ONE OF THE WILLIAMS CHICKS WOULD BE ON THERE BEFORE A NIGEL WHOEVER…

AND I GOOGLED HIM (NIGEL DEGRAFF) AND ALL I GOT WAS AN ENTERTAINMENT SITE, IS THAT ALL HE’S DONE???

WHY ISN’T DIDDY ON THE LIST >>I thought his clothing line was the top seller out of all of the celebrities , and his fragrances …whats up with that?????

Good for them, That’s what’s up!

MAN I WISH I WERE THEM FOR A DAY!!!!

I think that was their point, they shouldn’t even mentioned him.

UHH # 21 CAN U READ WILL SIMTH IS ON THA LIST WIT 31 MIL

lol @ 12, 21, 22….

I wonder if Oprah will adopt me?????

check the article people…that last dude listed here is not even included…plus Bob Johnson made the list of top executives….not CELEBRITY….
check out FORBES.COM….they have all the rankings you will ever want or need…

BIG UPS 2 beyonce and Jay….If they ever get married, man ole man that would be CRAZY.

@ A #23, YEA, DIDDY SHOULD BE ON THERE BUT LET’S NOT FOR GET THE MAJOR B.M. GUAP THAT HE’S SHELLING OUT PLUS HIS SIDE SHOW (MTB4)HE’S GOTTA KEEP UP, JUST TO STAY SOMEWHAT CURRENT…

That’s so cool that Jay and Beyonce not only made the list together but are both in the top 10. They are killing the game!!! Very well deserved - talent and smarts brings riches.

31 Said: “BIG UPS 2 beyonce and Jay….If they ever get married, man ole man that would be CRAZY.”

Yeah man, say that to their future half human, half camel kids. Everything in life is relative.

Oprah Winfrey - $260 Million

Wow, and this is coming from a woman who recently stated in one of her recent shows that she can’t stand it when her family asks her for money. She feels she’s being used. I FEEL SOO SORRY FOR HER.

Im proud of all of them but damn i wish i had there money

I thought Oprah made BILLIONS?!?! but anyway no one aint touchin her when it comes to raking in the money!!, But i would have thought P diddy would have been on that list.

Yeah I know Tyler perry has to be on their some where. His chitlin circuit plays pulled in more then a million dollars so as popular as his movies have been I would imagine he should be on the list. And diddy too.

And tiger, should he even be on the list scince he don”t consider himself black. Damnit I know that was years ago but that shit irks me. I’m not trying to force him to put himself in one category but he has the mentality of black people from other countries specifically the islands that pull that shit becuase they think there’s something wrong with associating them selves as black.

Why is Tiger included on this list? Let the caulbinasians represent his self hating behind. Why are we claiming someone who wants nothing to with anything remotely black? I don’t celebrate him or any of his accomplishements and could care less about how much money he makes.

Big up to all of those listed. But its so sad that people who rap, dance, hit a ball, bounce a ball, etc make so much money while highly educated individuals are still in the struggle.

$260 Mil in a year…must be nice. She should be a gazillionaire by now cause it seems like she been making that much for the past 10+ years

Good to see the homie Jay doing it big

Tiger Woods is black but he ain’t black lol

I’m gonna be up there one day once they find a cure for PROCRASTINATION…it’s a REAL disease

yea what happened 2 diddy

MONEY MEANS NOTHING! LOOK AT BRITNEY.
ALL THE MONEY IN THE WORLD WILL NOT MAKE YOU HAPPY.
HOPEFULLY THEIR SHIT IS TOGETHER.

34 said:Yeah man, say that to their future half human, half camel kids. Everything in life is relative.

Yeah man, say that to their future half human, half camel, *FULL BLOODED RICH kids. *Everything in they kids life would be relatively free.

This list is only what they made last year! Not what they have in total. Puffy made 23 million last year. He is worth almost 400 million.

# 40. I think it’s because many intelligent (or highly educated) blacks would rather work for whites than be entrepreneurial, subjecting themselves to the glass ceiling. Unlike whites.. for the most part, the richest whites are straight up nerds and geeks.

Why we keep claiming Tiger? He ain’t black he’s cablinasian.

Ken: U ain’t never lied. Not only look at Britney look at Oprah, obviously she resorts to food for happiness, look at Heath Ledger, River Phoenix, Whitney Houston, Kurt Cobain, Lindsay Lohan, Kobe Bryant (cheated), Michael Jordan (divorced), Shaq (divorced), the list can go on and on. You do have to be happy within yourself first, because money at times will only be an enabler to ultimate self destruction.

LMAO @ #18. For real though.

Uh, Oprah needs to adopt my ass. Or least pay off my college loans. I only owe $30,000 Oprah, so Just hook me up w/ a mil and i’m good to go!

@ 47: Forbes is not a black publication. Tiger should be calling them to explain how he’s not black.

@ 35: Rich people have feelings too. Even beautiful people (sometimes) want to be seen as more than a piece of meet. I know it might sound a little silly, but it’s true.

@ 29: Oprah can adopt or marry me.

@ 44: Say what you want, it’s a tough life when you can’t look your own father in the face.

Oprah net worth is 2.5 billion dollars. okay
This is that African American list of yearly figures.
In fact Beyonce is not top 20 of the richest celebrities, just african american as listed here which is good.
go to forbes.

We are looking good and Oprah is at the top of all the list, but we still got a long way to go.

#50 says @ 44: Say what you want, it’s a tough life when you can’t look your own father in the face.

LMAO thats funny.

I just saw what she was work…Bey ain’t got nothing on her.

Forget all these ungrateful celebs who have taken advantage of all the money they make and opportunities that come with being a celeb by doing stupid stuff. Give me $100 Million and I’ll be happier than a tambourine player who caught the Holy Ghost at church

I read somewhere Raven Symone was worth $400 million, where did she place on the list? Just wondering. Or was that article exagerating her worth?

______________________________________________________________________

Okay well if that is the case- Then why claim Barack??? come on people- get it together

What P.Diddy’s not on the list???!!!! damn that negro is goin broke paying for his 4 children his baby mama’s aint playing!!!!!!

Also people learn how to read- it’s not about how much a celeb is worth- It’s about what they’d Made in ONE YEAR!

@ #56 Yeah they made it seem like she was worth that much but I seen the other day that Raven made $400 Million in revenue FOR Disney based off her show. I’m sure she has some millions just not 400M

I thought Micheal Jordan didn’t release his net worth?

Hmmm…I dunno 31 million? Under Kobe? I know Juanita got a big chunk but she deserved it. I uno, he’s sheltering something

Where talking about the Jordan trademark, that’s synonymous with Nike

I’m so proud of Jay, that why all his people hate on him -
Keep doing your thing

Whassup y’all niggaz all fed up cause I got a little cheddar
and my records movin out the sto’?
Young f**ks spittin at me, young rappers gettin at me
My nigga Big predicted the shit exactly
“Mo’ Money, Mo’ Problems” - gotta move carefully
Cause faggots hate when you gettin money like athletes
Yung’uns ice-grillin me, ohh - you not feelin me?
Fine; it cost you nothin - pay me no mind
Look, I’m on my grind cousin, ain’t got time for frontin
Sensitive thugs, y’all all need hugs

that’s whats up

#57

Uh barack at the one who went out of his way to let people know he didn’t consider himself black and then went on to say how he gets mad when people identify him as such, see the difference.

JAY & B …………………..REPRESENT!!!!

HATE IF YA WANT……..BUT YA WASTING YOUR TIME!!!!!!!

LLLLLLMAAAAAAAAAOOOOOOOO@ Mills…………
The hate always comes when you are doing your thang…………

SUCCESS. American Gangsta!! If YOU AIN’T got it, YA SLIPP’N!!

@51 In fact Beyonce is not top 20 of the richest celebrities, just african american as listed here which is good.
go to forbes.
SHUT THE HELL UP WHY YOU TRYNA PUT SOMONE DOWN BEYONCE HAS 27 MILLION REASONS NOT TO GIVE A SHYT ABOUT WHAT YOUR BROKE ASS HAS TO SAY..LOL

LMAO at Anti, who says @ 44: Say what you want, it’s a tough life when you can’t look your own father in the face.

Chile, I am cracking up at that one. Wheewwww weeeee, I can’t stop laughing.

If you squint your eyes a lil bit, Jay looks like Tiger, lol.

something about that list aint right. what has kobe been doin to be on top of micheal. i kno juanita took half but damn…i know he has more.

THIS IS A CONSPIRACY

PUFF WON’T BE ON THAT LIST FOR AWHILE….KIM KILLING THEM CHECKS!!!

YES PUFF…YOU REALLY DO WRITE CHECKS!!!!! TAKE THAT, TAKE THAT BAD BOY!! lol

How can Michael be broke earning that much money? Evaluate your priorities!

I swear, one day you CL readers will actually learn to READ….

this list is based on a single YEAR EARNINGS (from June to June)…it is not, i repeat NOT the total worth of the celebrity….

this is also just the top 10 black earners for the year…..Tyler Perry and Diddy are ranked among the top black earners, but they did not make the TOP TEN …

again, go to Forbes if you are still confused!!!!

What the hell don’t ya’ll get. This is not the NET worth, it’s only how much they took in last year. Damn, reeeeeeead.

uh oh I can see Beyonce stans going after the naysayers today lol anways congrats to all my black people being sucessful but I could’ve sworn Beyonce was going to make more than 27 million lol..my ass was thinking about 100 million with world tour oh well congrats!!!!

BTW, Diddy made in the $20-25 million range for the year…enough to keep him out the TOP TEN this year…

(list changes each year based on earnings)

LETS GO JIGGA MAN!! Beyonce is still RAKIN in that dough, so keep hatin hataz, Oprah will Alaways be on top..I am not surprised.. But im surprised that 50 is number 4..I wouldn’t expect that.

@76,
Beyonce started her World Tour in the summer, and this was from June06-June07, so she DEF made more tha that.

Wow as a woman I am VERY proud of Beyonce. Say what you want but this woman is the Richest woman in rnb and the most popular and successful too. She is killing all these chicks. Beyonce is the only woman on the list besides Oprah. Obviously it’s a waste of time to hate on Beyonce. Like her or not she is killing it.

I’m proud of Oprah too. She’s always killing it. Big up to Beyonce and Oprah for holding it down for the ladies.

Jay always doing his thang. He’s the richest man in hiphop and his woman is the richest woman in rnb so they are the perfect match. Both legends. I love it.

Congrats to all of them. I LOVE seeing black people succeed. Please let’s not tear down our own people. Congratulate.

I mean c’mon I know that The Simmons should have made this list…among others.

First of all CONGRATS to all the High Rollers - I AINT MAD AT DEM. But, you better believe this list is totally inaccurate. Some people on that list (and off) are not going to report all the money they made. That’s smart because when you start doing that, HATERS really show their HATE. Look at what happened to Stax Record Label and you’ll see what I mean. Issac Hayes and other blacks were doing Fabulous and were insanley rich in the 1970’s but, Haters got super jealous and made them lose a lot of what they had.

Damn Beyonce is doing it big for the ladies. This ain’t even include the second half of her tour so I know she making dat paper. She stays on top of the game.
I know her haters are mad. LMAO

@79,
I meant she did the other half in the summer/fall.

Actually not the whole tour of beyonce has been count. So she made a lot more i think around 40 million.

wheres diddy on the list?? hmmm

For those of you who think Oprah is selfish for being upset when family members ask her for money, you should rethink that because you would be upset to if family members who never bother to call you to wish you a happy holiday suddenly come out the blue asking for money.

For those who bash Jay-Z and Beyonce, you guys are just haters. Instead of supporting our people we have to talk bad about them in order to make ourselves feel better. I don’t care what anyone has to say. We have to get it together and we need to stop hating on each other because it gets us nowhere. Before you start talking about someone else’s looks, look at yourself in the mirror.

@46
where the hell did you get your facts from?
you better believe for everyone on that list there is a richer white person signing their checks too. we ALL work for white people namely the UNITED STATES GOVT
now what?

but speaking of Jay Z
i cant wait for his tour with Mary J
that is gonna be fiyah right there
and of course CL is late with the news….

do we have to claim tiger woods?

Who is the last person? I’ve never heard of him.

I LOVE MY PEOPLE. BLACK HISTORY MONTH JUST GOT BETTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

the real college hill! check em

CONCRETELOOP THIS IS KINDA OLD TOO. I DON’T BELIEVE IT ACCURATE JUST THE SAME, I THINK THEY BASICALLY ASSUMED ALOT OF THESE FIGURES. MOST OF THE MONEY, MADE BY THESE ENTERTAINERS ARE FROM ENDORSEMENTS.

i don’t believe those figures at all, they is no truth in them Tiger earned 100milllion doing what, how do they come with these figures,a conservative figure for JAY Z WILL EB AROUND 40-45MILL, and 50cent probably round 30million, some of these figures are exaggerated

Damn i knew Ms Oprah would be at the top. Keep makin dat paper girl and doin us proud!!

THIS IS BULLSHIT; YOU MEAN BEYONCE MADE MORE THAN DIDDY! I KNOW DIDDY MADE MORE THAN 27 MILLION LAST YEAR….THIS LIST = BULLSHIT.

THEY SHOULD RENAME THIS LIST “OUR FAVORED CELEBRITIES, YOU KNOW, THE ONES WHOSE ASS WE KISS”

YOU FAIL TO REALISE JAY-Z DOESN’T LIMIT HIMSELF TO MUSIC NOR CLOTHES.
Jay-Z co-owns The 40/40 Club, an upscale sports bar that started in New York City and has since expanded to Atlantic City, NJ and Las Vegas, . Future plans will see 40/40 Clubs in Los Angeles, and Singapore. Roc-A-Fella also distributes Armadale, a Scottish vodka, in the U.S. Jay-Z is a part-owner of the New Jersey Nets NBA team paying a reported $4.5 million for his share. He is also interested in relocating the team to Brooklyn.
HE ALSO JUST SIGNED A $66 MILLION DOLLAR REAL ESTATE DEAL IN DECEMBER 2007. GET IN WHERE YOU FIT IN.

WHAT DID DIDDY DO WITHIN THAT TIME FRAME, EXCEPT BRING 3 BABIES INTO THE WORLD? I WAS SURPRISED TOO, BUT DIDDY HASN’T REAL BEEN MAKING ANY REAL MOVES.

So you guys gonna belive Jay Z and Breyonce made $105 million combined thats just not real, unless they printing their own money then it cld be true, i ‘m not hating on any one but this figures juss dont add up

I agree with Brizzy, Tiger Woods is not black….so why is he on this list…..

#62 - THAT’S WHASSUP and everyone else that’s riding with Jay and Beyonce.

Kudo’s to Beyonce though - this tally doesn’t even include the 2nd half of her tour!!! She’ll be somewhere on the list again next year.

Bonnie & Clyde has this thang on lock!!!

Congrats 2 all!!

wat;s up .oo1 million lol

congrats to everybody. go head beyonce ranked all that money why the haters get mad, and that doesn’t even include her north american tour revenues and endorsement deal(direct tv)

The list for the top 20 ‘Cash Queens of Music’ as per Forbes is:
1. Madonna 72 million dollars
2. Barbra Streisand 60 million dollars
3. Celine Dion 45 million dollars
4. Shakira 38 million dollars
5. Beyonce 27 million dollars
6. Gwen Stefani 26 million dollars
7. Christina Aguilera 20 million dollars
8. Faith Hill 19 million dollars
9. Dixie Chicks 18 million dollars
10. Mariah Carey 13 million dollars
11. Hilary Duff 12 million dollars
12. Avril Lavigne 12 million dollars
13. Martina McBride 12 million dollars
14. Britney Spears 8 million dollars
15. Carrie Underwood 7 million dollars
16. Nelly Furtado 7 million dollars
17. Fergie 6 million dollars
18. Jennifer Lopez 6 million dollars
19. Sheryl Crow 6 million dollars
20. Norah Jones 5.5 million dollars

I must say, that for Tiger Woods- a man who doesn’t consider himself to be black, but rather “Cablinasian” (shaking my head), it is nice to see him and all the other celebrities on the Forbes’ Top 10 Earning Blacks List.

#101 I mean dang dude it doesnt matter if you dont believe it or not they got money . Again, its from June 06-June07. Dang get out their pockets damn………

loop,

i know this is left field, but I live in VA and our primary election is this Tuesday, FEB 12th and im trying to spread the word for people to vote on my facebook and myspace….then this chick asked me where do I vote? which let me know she’s unfamiliar with the process, as A LOT of young voters are……..so could you make a generic voting steps post??? Cuz im not even familiar with each step….just list the main steps or bold the main steps with elaborations, or however you like…….there just needs to something very easy youngins can refer to when they decide to become registered voters.

Here’s an example:

1. go to city hall to get form
2. turn in form
3. you will receive card in mail telling you where you vote (precinct)
4. know the dates your district/state will vote
5. take valid photo ID to precinct to vote (address must match info on voter roster)
6. VOTE!!!

…you know, something like that

thanks guys

Umm did anybody hear about Oprah leaving her dogs a whole bunch of damn money? Can I be broke off please?

” IF YOU LOOK UP ON AISLE SIX, IT SAYS IT…TOOOOTHPASTE YOU JUST HAVE TO FUCKING READ….TOOOOOTHPASTE, USE YOUR VOWELS”

what in theeeee hell is wrong w/ you people tiger woods have told you nitt witts i ‘am not african american this article needs to be corrected its an embarrassment to me as a black man to see this knowing full well this cacuasian asian don’t identify w/ you blacks. I’ I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I NEVER”””””””””””

Glad to see my people making money…

never knew that tiger felt that way. I mixed and I embrace everthing I am if some ask are u mexican I’m like yeah, u black yeah, lol u asain yeah. what up wit tiger embrace it ALL!

This means Oprah makes 712 000 a day………………………A DAY!!!!

No one knows for sure how much money these people have. Where is Diddy? Where is Denzel? Where are the Simmons? Think about that. There is no mention of these people. This list is crazy. I believe Oprah, Tiger, Kobe, Will, Jordan, Labron, Shaq are true, for the rest… I don’t think so.

where is ravens name lolol …….bey you go gurll out of the lime for a minute hope she is not the blind item that had an abortion and cant dance she is missing in action tho …….. oprah really the queen of them all ….my po ass will take a million frum some body lololo

YEAH I SAW THAT ON FORBES, AND I BET AROUND THIS TIME NEXT YEAR, SHE’LL MAKE THIS LIST AGAIN WITHOUT DOING ANYTHING! HER TOUR WAS JUST GETTING STARTED WHEN THEY TALLIED UP THIS LIST, SO SHE WILL DEF BE ON IT NEXT YEAR BECAUSE THEY ARE GOING TO TALLY WHAT SHE DID FROM 07-08!

oh no bey didnt make more than diddy lololo something is def wrong

the figure did not count beyonce USA tour. Its from 2006 to June 2007. so Beyonce makes way more than $27 million when you add her USA and Asia which went from June -December 2007

WOW!

I am so impressed. This is so empowering. I feel that black people are achieving and setting higher standards. Very important for the next generation. I applaud them all.

THATS WHAT I SAID, THIS CHICK WAS KILLIN THEM ON TOUR, BUT SHE WAS JUST GETTING STARTED IN APRIL!

BEY MADE MORE THAN DIDDY FOLKS.. GET OVER IT!!

DIDDY IS LOADED, BUT HE DIDN’T TRUMP HER FOR THIS REPORTING PERIOD..

I’M SURE HIS $150 MILL DEAL FROM CIROC (WHICH BY THE WAY I’VE BEEN DRINKING SINCE COLLEGE..DAMN HIM!!) WILL HELP HIM TO MAKE THE LIST NEXT YEAR….

WHY YOU MADE SHE MADE MORE THAN HIM AS IF HE’S SENDIN YOU A CHECK??

JSCENE, YOUZ A HATIN SOMEBODY… MUST BE PAINFUL WATCHING THOSE YOU HATE ON SO MUCH SUCCEED.. TSK, TSK.. LMAO!

So is the money they made last year? Okay now that makes sense.

Congrats to my beautiful black people! Jay & Bee are doing it big! Hip Hop Royalty for sure! Oprah is killing it!

Sorry just because Forbes makes a list doesn’t mean it is legit. First off Tiger Woods does NOT consider himself to be black. So why is Forbes putting him on this list. Didn’t Tiger say he’s a combination or something like that? Second, where is Will Smith? Will Smith makes over $20 million plus a percentage of the profits for EVERY MOVIE HE MAKES. Same for Denzel Washington they would be high on the list. Also, where is Tyler Perry? Doesn’t make sense?

Tiger Woods black?How about they have a category for the lost souls?Basically, it’s the same black folks every year so, a big yawn.But congrats to them.When you invest privately and things like that you make big money like that so I’m not hating!!!!

Beautiful Thing…

Actually, the list with the African American is wrong when it comes to Beyonce. She made 27 mil in the time frame of June 2006 and June 2007, that’s what the top 20 cash queens said.

alright my black people….get that money…..i bet you lindsey lohan and dem other hoes aint making money like that lol

Damn all that in a year I couldn’t even imagine the problems they have to deal with. Taxes, begging ass people, Taxes, mindless law suits, Taxes, your local stick up kids, babymamas, alleged babymamas Everybody can’t handle being rich. At the end of the day its all about your legacy you leave behind. Malcolm, Marcus, 2pac, Che weren’t rich. I bet my kids kids gonna know about them though

Oprah is truly inspirational. She’s made all of that money off of her great personality, ideas and intelligence. I’m so proud she’s apart of my race. Props to the rest. They all work hard.

THIS IS THE SAME INFORMATION, IT IS FROM THE SAME TIME PERIOD JUNE 06- JUNE 07. COMPRHENSION!

No matter what the topic, if it has anything to do with Kobe, somebody has to mention the fact that he cheated. And here we are talking about how Usher can do so much better than Tamika. Didn’t he cheat???

Beyonce: White people support her more than we do, it’s a shame.

Shaq: Well, good thing for him he makes money off of doing nothing.

Look at my baby at number 3:). u mite not think its accurate..who could ever know?? i mean..hes got SOoOoooo many endeavors…..

N he sexy….Damn…. icry every time i see him…!

o welll. goodnite. :))))!1

LOL @ 138-140. I wonder where all those comments were when the nigga was broke. Gold-diggin ass black women…

I’m trying to figure out what Jay-Z did to earn 83 million during fiscal year 2007. He certainly wasn’t making any good songs. No one wears RocaWear anymore. hmmmm. Well he had some endorsement with some vodka company, a beer company…what else? He was president of def jam, right? There is something missing.

Well..this list has inspired me to get off my ass and pursue my dreams. I want that cheddar in the year 08.

Here’s the video from E about Beyonce being the #5 Cash Queen with 27 mil. What’s so remarkable is that this doesn’t even count the millions that Brand Beyonce has made.

Here’s the video from E about Beyonce being the #5 Cash Queen with 27 mil. What’s so remarkable is that this doesn’t even count the millions that Brand Beyonce has made.

A New Venture for Jay-Z, on Madison Avenue

If Tiger is #2, shouldn’t this picture be next to Oprah’s? Why is Jay-z in the middle? That is misleading.

Now I see why Jay-z dont want to wife Beyonce. Make the b*tch sign a prenup!

People! This is only the money they made over the year, NOT their total new worth.

People doubting how much money people like Jay, Diddy and Bey make. For your info, these people own property too. Not a condo here and there, but high rise, multi unit buildings over 40 floors high, and shares in hotels, etc. Oprah owns plenty of property: farms, studios, buildings, stores, warehouses, schools, etc.- some here and overseas. She truly is a powerhouse and a hard act to follow.

is it me or do jay-z & tiger woods look like they could be related up there?

lady o my idol did it again pplz sometimez tlk about her sayin she ugly and how she gain weight whateva haterz ya wish yall was her she has beauty and class sumthin yall wish yall had i hope god continues to bless her i hope to be succesful like her one day continue to shake them hataz off and keep gettin that paper lets get to a trillion dollars or that bill gates money o

wow, they are all paid!!!

Should Tiger Woods be on here? He says he’s not black. And his actions sort of support that notion. I’m proud of everyone else. Not him tho. He SUX!!

Congrats to my girl Beyonce! She is killing it for the ladies!

its pains me that some people cant even coneive someone making 160million from entertaiment–stupidity knows no bounds ! if u cant comprehend that then you wouldnt be able to wrap your head around the fact that the richest man in the world makes more money in 30 minutes than most will in a lifetime ..the gaps between the have and the have nots is so large..if u keep the mentality that you have to “work” for your money then youll always be broke the rich know how to make thyere money work for them people get with it!

I agree, Tiger Woods should not be on this list. Too bad we can’t do a race draft for real. I’d trade him in for Teena Marie in a second… I’d even take Eminem.

Why the hell is Tiger so damn wealthy? Who the hell watches golf?

Thanks for added clarification, Mr. Mr. Anywho, I’m so proud of my people.

Oprah will always been on top She said it right, “don’t play me small.”

@ 75, I agree, nobody is reading this at all, besides with all that Bey’s hustle game, with her Concerts and movie “DreamGirl” thats all the girl got…why bother!

Tiger is African American, Chinese, Native American, Thai, Chinese, and Dutch. Why does he have to identify himself with black and ignore all of the other things he is???

Tiger is not black. Take him off the list

Never a bad thing when you can say you earn way too much to get a tax rebate check from the IRS. Good for all of them! I look forward to joining their circle one day…hopefully…

Why the f**k is Tiger Woods on this list…. He doesn’t even consider himself BLACK?? His mother is Asian and his father was bi-racial?? He’s NOT BLACK people! He evens calls himself Cau-bla-asian! His wife is the WHITEST of WHITE women… SWEDISH! Please… stop including this guy on lists of black folks… everyone else can have him.. he clearly doesn’t want to be and doesn’t acknowledge that he’s BLACK! UUGGH!

theres only one thing i wanna say. beyonce and jay-z…ur kids are set up nice.

I agree Tiger Woods wants nothing to do with black people. I don’t understand why Woods is on the list. Woods mother is Asian and his father is part black. Woods has made it clear he is not a part of the black community. Why is Woods on the list?

You go beyonce !!!!!!!!!!!!!! ma gurl

Why do we keep including Tiger Woods in African-Americans accomplishments. He has said time and time again. That he’s not Black…..come on y’all If he doesn’t won’t to be Black….Bump him!!!

The reason why Tiger Woods is on this list is because the white man knows something that Tiger Woods and many black people don’t. The white man knows that it’s not what you consider yourself that matters, it’s what you are. This society says one thing and practices another, so if America states that you must “embrace all aspects of your lineage, heritage, and culture”, it really means “you are however you look to me”. This is the same exact reason why censuses are distributed that ask you what race you are. In America race matters more than anyplace else because there are so many different races here. The white man needs to keep tabs on how many there are in his country of the various races.

A person is whatever race the father is because the man carries the seed, determines the race and the sex. Tiger Wood’s father is black, so Tiger Woods is black. The white man knows this, so he includes him on this list. I hope that black people stop making such dumb comments regarding why Tiger Woods is on this list because he calls himself “cablinasian”. Tiger Woods is no more delusional than the majority of double-minded negroes that say that “color doesn’t matter” in one breath and then get roused up over Obama in the next breath.

That’s wonderful. Must be nice to make than in a year. Hooray for black people.
