#74 Lil Wayne

2009 Rank: No Rank

Not even jail could stop Lil Wayne from making his first appearance on the Forbes Celebrity 100. Sentenced in March to a year in the pen for weapons possessions, the rapper managed to earn his hefty total from his new album Rebirth, proceeds from guest appearances and a healthy dose of touring where he grossed over $500,000 per show. Wayne is already making plans for a new album, Tha Carter IV, upon his release.

I can do it now lol

Edit:

If Wayne did 78 shows between 08 & 09 that means he made 39 Million according to the articles numbers. Plus the money from the tour he did before he went to jail. I feel sorry for all the other acts with him lol they only got a couple milli

They're basically talking money wise because if they weren't then Justin Bieber, Drake, and Maybe Nicki would've been on the list
