Beating out stiff competition from Taylor Swift, Rihanna, Lady Gaga and Katy Perry, Britney Spears has been named by Forbes magazine as the biggest earning woman in music over the past year.
Britney Spears did not make the Forbes list last year, possibly down to a reduction in the amount of her touring.
This year the pop star has performed 75 dates as well as earning money from various endorsements and her perfume line.
She has also taken a role on the judging line-up of The X Factor USA.
