Beyoncé beats Michael Jackson’s record; named the highest-paid black artist in history
RnB diva, Beyoncé has been named the highest-paid black artist of all time - beating the likes of Michael Jackson and Prince.
The 32-year-old singer has managed to improve on previous earning records held by Michael Jackson, Prince and Janet Jackson – and it follows the overwhelming success of her Mrs Carter Show world tour.
According to Billboard magazine, Beyoncé grossed $212 million (€153m) for the year-long tour, which sold over 1.8 million tickets for its 126 dates.
