MADONNA reclaimed her title as the mightiest force in music

Forbes Lists the World's Most Powerful Celebrities
Jun 14, 6:00 PM EST
By Lea Goldman, Forbes.com

It was a year of conquest in Hollywood. The worldwide box office soared to a record $25.8 billion, buoyed by global blockbusters such as Disney's "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest" and Sony's "The Da Vinci Code." Madonna reclaimed her title as the mightiest force in music, thanks to her record-breaking Confessions tour, which drew more than a million fans and generated $195 million in ticket sales. And golf ace Tiger Woods banked $100 million, more in a single year than any athlete in history.

Tinseltown's triumphs are reflected in this year's Celebrity 100, Forbes' annual list of the world's most powerful and best-paid celebrities. To generate the list, Forbes analyzes celebrity earnings, plus media metrics such as Google hits, press mentions as compiled by Lexis/Nexis, TV/radio mentions from Factiva and the number of times an A-lister appears on the cover of 32 major consumer magazines.

#3 Madonna
Madonna crisscrossed the globe last year for her tour, Confessions, which drew over 1 million fans and grossed $194 million, making it the top-earning tour by a female artist in history. NBC cut the material girl a hefty check to broadcast the Confessions tour live last November, though ratings proved disappointing. In March, the always-fashion-forward singer linked up with retailer H&M for her own clothing line, M. (Rhinestones a-plenty, no cone bras.) Generated a maelstrom of negative publicity last year for her adoption of a baby in Malawi.

You CANNOT use the name of God, or religion, to justify acts of violence, to hurt, to hate, to discriminate- Madonna
