I don't believe this list.

 

2008 is not over yet.

 

Celine made so much money on this tour... the figures are incorrect.

 

She would at least be #3 .

Yeah I don't Belive the figiures at all it's still 08 and the world tour is still going on for another year. :yes:

The numbers are from 1 june 2007 till 1 june 2008. That kinda makes sense, even though that should include the last payments from a new day, d'elles and taking chances sales profit, and first 4 months of world tour. plus her fragrances and other things we don't even know about

That's correct, it's from June 2007 to June 2008. That means 6 months of revenue from A New Day and 5 months of revenue from the tour. She must have a earned way more than $40 million!! But hey, that's good for her if Forbes talks about that number only... she won't have to declare the entire revenue and will pay taxes only on $40 million!!! :giggle:

Yeah Justin makes more cause his concert tickets go all the way up to 1,000 Dollars.

Huge! Number five indeed was her lucky number. What could be Celine's reaction to this. LOl!

 

Yeah, my only request for Forbes is. Show us the "supporting financial factors" LOl!

I really don't trust this Forbes tops. I know they're famous for them, but for me, when they said Celine's entire fortune was around 250 million dollars, they lost all credibility. She made that much just during her stay in Vegas. And how did they come up with 80 millions for Beyonce? She didn't have an album out, I heard nothing about her touring.... It's crazy!

For the year that Celine has had I find it very hard to believe that she is only number 5 :huh: The Police must have charged like $2000 a ticket to make it to number 1 :confused: Edited by Denelle

From June to June and they call the 2008 list? It doesn't make sense. It is actually half of 2007 and half of 2008! (maybe it's a reason we don't know)
