THis nigga was in jail more than half the time and still the best paid rapper under 30... Sad
With $15 million made in the past year rapper Lil Wayne
manages to work his way on to Forbes' "Best-Paid Celebrities Under 30” list.
Although rapper Lil
Wayne
spent most of last year behind bars due to a weapons possession charge
he still managed to make Forbes’ distinguished list of “Best-Paid Celebrities Under
30.”
Forbes’ list takes into account the amount of money each celebrity made
between May 2010 and May 2011. The list is comprised of 20 celebrities from the
worlds of music, sports, and movies.
According to Forbes, Lil Wayne was estimated to have made about $15 million
in the past year.
The 28-year-old rapper was joined on the list by the likes of Katy Perry,
Rihanna, Justin Bieber, LeBron James, and Beyoncé Knowles. And although Beyoncé
made it on to Forbes’ list the magazine described the singer as being “unusually
low” on their list due to the fact that she hasn’t toured or released an album
in about a year.
Topping the list of “Best-Paid Celebrities Under 30” is of course Lady Gaga
who raked in a jaw-dropping $90 million primarily due to album sales, her
Monster Ball Tour, and a slew of endorsements.
