Canadian singer Justin Bieber, 19, came a distant second after Lady Gaga with an estimated income of $58 million.
Last year’s highest-earner Taylor Swift, 23, came third, pulling in $55 million.

To compile the ranking, Forbes talked to agents, managers, producers and executives to estimate the entertainment-related income of each artist from June 2012 to June 2013.
Adele, 25, was the only Brit placed in the top 10. The singer, who won an Oscar in February for her theme to Skyfall, was seventh on the list with an estimated $25 million.
