Lady Gaga Tops Forbes Most Powerful Celebrities List
May 18, 2011
Lady Gaga has taken the top spot in Forbes ‘Most Powerful Celebrities‘ list bringing in a whopping $90 million in earnings while knocking Oprah out of the number 1 spot.
Helping her take the lead was her social media skills. Forbes says:
Lady Gaga topples Oprah Winfrey from her No.1 spot on our list, which she’s given up for only the third time in seven years. Gaga is there not just because of the $90 million she earned with a monster tour, but also because of her 32 million Facebook fans and 10 million Twitter followers–aka Little Monsters–who helped move 1 million digital downloads of her recent single “Born This Way” in only five days. They’re also happy to buy the MAC makeup, Monster headphones and Virgin Mobile phones she features in her videos.
Besides Gaga taking number 1, the Top 15 includes:
2. Oprah Winfrey
3. Justin Bieber
