I'm serious, there's a conspiracy.

Ever since the Lovesexy cover...all these hatin ass chicks came out of nowhere

Mad cause P can get menfolk like Jamie Foxx over them

It's not P's fault she looks good in a skating outfit.

The funny thing is that only a few of them make 100% from their music, this is also counting clothing,perfume and any endorsements they do, payments they get from doing media things, like magazines etc.. as for Babs, well all she would have to do is one show and she gets 60 million from the promoter and outrageous ticket sale prices.


didn' all the proceeds to bab's last tour go to charity? so where did she make all that money? confuse
Space for sale...

Maybe she still "makes" the money even if she donates it?

She must be making tons on her catalog than. If she did no shows and no movies than there isnt many other places that can come from. Unless she has stock in the label itself. All those other ladies listed, had new albums,tours,movies,endorsements or something to put them on the list.

Btw where is Miley Cyrus on this list?? is it because shes under 21? if so technically Hilary Duff cant be listed she is turning 21 later in the year.

People like Barbara have a whole different species for fans/listeners, so her money is serious.

She laughs at these other chicks' money because their earnings are a myth and they can disappear in a second.

Wow, did Barbra even do anything in '07?



that is what I was thinking... unless she helped beyonce write flaws and all how could she or a few of the others up there make all that money not doing anything? dang beyonce toured like a her life depended on it. in fact it was really the only concert that stood out last year. hell it should have grossed as much as oprah winfrey's bank account alone. then all the endorsments good or not.

fergie I could see making a ton.. the Queen? isn't up there? jill scott? Eve? fantasia with the play? not a bad list though. if maruah just made it then janet jackson should have and lil kim, mary j, etc, as well as some of the country western singers. avril okay her too.

hmmm I don't think Janet did much last year,did she? She released an album that didn't sell very well,and she didn't tour at all.If she made any money last year,it's gotta be for the 'Why Did I Get Married' movie role,but she probably wasn't paid very much for that.

yeah that is true but I don't remember mariah doing anything either. I guess that is how I came up with the equation.
