Katy Perry has been working her buns off this year; Forbes revealed that she is the highest paid female musician in world. What a time to be Katy, she went from being fifth on the list last year to being number one, coming back with a bang and dominating her rival Taylor Swift by $55 million!

Someone needs to light the fireworks for this pop princess, who made $135 million in 2015, according to Forbes.

She spoke with Forbes about her earnings.

“I am proud of my position as a boss, as a person that runs my own company,” she said. “I’m an entrepreneur. … I don’t want to shy away from it. I actually want to kind of grab it by its balls.”

Katy did just that.  She made more than $2 million per city during her “Prismatic World Tour” visiting over 126 cities, and her endorsements and contracts with Covergirl, Coty and Claire’s helped up her income.

Katy bumped Taylor down to second on list.  Taylor earned $80 million, followed by Fleetwood Mac at $59.5 million, Lady Gaga with $59 million and Beyoncé rounds off the top five with $54.5 million.

Congratulations to all the women that made the list!  Keep on inspiring us to work harder. NWA will definitely be on the lookout next year to see if someone new will climb to the top, or will Katy hold it down again?
