Although Diddy landed at just 22 last year, he’s catapulted to the top of Forbes’ rich list – thanks to his recent US tour, a marketing deal with a vodka company and selling one third of his Sean John clothing line.

2. Beyonce Knowles – $105m

Queen Bey has come in at number two, largely due to profits from her Formation tour and her most recent album, Lemonade. Meanwhile, her husband Jay-Z was placed at number 55 on the list.

3. JK Rowling – $95m

JK Rowling raked in the cash over the past year, thanks to the publication of her two-part play, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, and the film release of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.

4. Drake – $94m 

Drake’s tour earnings and his endorsements with the likes of Nike, Sprite and Apple are to thank for his millions.

5. Cristiano Ronaldo – $93m 

Cristiano’s hefty soccer salary has him raking in six figures, but the footballer also has a line of branded products including underwear and jeans, plus a lifetime deal with Nike.

6. The Weeknd – $92m

7. Howard Stern – $90m 

8. Coldplay – $88m

9. James Patterson – $87m
