It's time for another Forbes list.
In September, we received their annual Hip Hop Cash Kings list , and this month they've announced the 30 Under 30 list. The 30 Under 30 list rounds up the highest-paid celebrities of all walks of life (sports, music, acting etc), who are under 30-years old.
Taylor Swift, who may or may not be adding a touch of the hip-hop and r'n'b influence on her forthcoming album if rumors are to be believed, ranks at #1. The 26-year old pop star earned $170 million in a year thanks to her 1989 album and accompanying tour. The youngest person on the 30 Under 30 list is Justin Bieber , who at 22-years old, ranks at #6 after earning $56 million.
