Beyonce has trumped her chart rivals Britney Spears, Miley Cyrus and the Jonas Brothers to be named the Best-Paid Celebrity Under 30 in a new Forbes magazine poll.
The R&B superstar, who is married to rap icon Jay-Z, raked in an estimated $87 million in the year between 1 June 2008 and 1 June 2009 to top the survey.
The 27 year old's fortune came from a variety of projects as a singer, actress, fashion designer and brand ambassador for the likes of cosmetic company L'Oreal and computer game giant Nintendo.
She was placed far ahead of Finnish Formula 1 driver Kimi Raikkonen, 29, and 24-year-old NBA hotshot LeBron James, who complete the top three.
Other stars to feature in the countdown include "Toxic" hitmaker Spears, 27, who earned $35 million in the last 12 months, while teenage Disney sensations Cyrus and the Jonas Brothers tie in seventh place with "Harry Potter" actor Daniel Radcliffe and the world's highest-paid supermodel Gisele Bundchen with $25 million.
The top five Best-Paid Celebrities Under 30 are as follows:
1. Beyonce -- $87 million
2. Kimi Raikkonen -- $45 million
3. LeBron James -- $40 million
4. Britney Spears -- $35 million
5. Roger Federer -- $33 million.
