2009 Forbes Celebrity 100


Recommended Posts

i'm just wondering why celine wasn't able to make it to the list. i mean, her tour grossed more than $200million and she releases 2 cd's recently.

 

madonna's #3 and beyonce at 4th place..where's celine???

on Headline News they said the list is determind by the "power" the celeb has. Basically how unfluencial they are. Suprisingly and much to my enjoyment Angie beat out Oprah for the top spot! Woot!

I actually am surprised she's not somewhere on there. Isn't she worth hundreds of millions? She's priceless to me though! :wub: Everybody together now, "awwwwwwwwwwwwwwww..." :laugh:

indeed, if they rank celine by press rank, tv and other and put her at #100, she could still be up by her pay ranks....i just dont understand it, even at #100, she could not even make it?

again its what celeb has the most influence and power. It's not all based on money, if it was then Oprah would have beat Angie easily. She made triple what Anige did, yet Angie was first for all her charity work and the awareness she brought to adoption.

has she been on there before?

 

she's always on the list every year...last year, she ranks #28 with i think at $40 million pay rank.

She has been in the top 30 for the last 2 years, I thought.. I think in 2006 she was like, 18!

 

I went through all 100 and was thoroughly disgusted. She should have been in the top 20, easy. She has been all over the world on tour, doing tv shows, public performances, etc. She did more in the last year than she did in the 2006-2007 and 2007-2008 time period! It should count for something. Ugh, total bullsh!t. Forbes is dead to me now.

yeah, this is how they rate each person accdg to their site...

 

Earnings estimates are for June 2008 to June 2009. Includes dollars earned solely from entertainment income. Management, agent and attorney fees have not been deducted. Figures rounded off where appropriate. Sources include Billboard, Pollstar, Adams Media Research, Nielsen SoundScan and Nielsen BookScan. Rankings are generated by combining earnings with other metrics: Web mentions on Google press clips compiled by LexisNexis; TV/radio mentions by Factiva; and number of times a celebrity's face appeared on the cover of 25 major consumer magazines.

 

celine's tour in north america started i think october to march...so how come radio could not mention her? she's been on billboard top concert tour charts for the year, her DVD is even charted since its release and even her album sales have a fair sales on their release dates. she should be rather up by this year...not gone!!!

this finally proves that the forbes lists are B***S***!

She had a 280 million grossing tour, sold about 2 million albums between the compilation and back catalog, her fragrances sold millions, and she was everywhere in the press because of the tour!!!

 

Forbes sucks!

indeed it is pat....i thought it was credible list....but not after all

That's why it's totally non-sense.

This list is probably more subjective than objective.

The staff at forbes have probably changed and the list is now compiled by a non-celine fan.

 

It may also be that she is now on a long break and will not be in the media for a while.

I can see arguments about that statement :P

Someone mentioned charity work is also included in the rank. What about the book with the children that she promoted on Oprah? What about St. Justine? What about donations she made while in South Africa? What about her support for the Cystic Fibrosis foundation? What about her donation to the earthquake victims in China? What about her other charitable contributions (that I don't know about)? She's all over the place when it comes to charitable works!!! Edited by fyoung98

Perhaps the world tour wasn't really that interesting and the album didn't sell well.
Posted

^ the tour grossed $280M. the album became one of the best selling greatest hits last year.

 

yeah right... -_-

Posted

Last year she made 5th I think, and Madonna was 4th ..

That's odd :yes:

 

Muahaha Oprah had to let down her place as #1!

So Madonna divorces her husband and immediately hooks up with another guy :sick: . Then is involved in an adoption situation that involved some controversy and she gets number 3 spot? I don't get it :glare:

She doesn't even make it in the Top TWENTY-FIVE.

 

How is it that Tom Cruise passes her ....... HOW.

 

J.K Rowling isn't on the list either ... she made #2 last year ............ wow.

they're gonna put Lady Gaga on the 1st next year...

That's weird that she's not on the list, with all of the success the tour had and that My Love was the best selling GH of 2008.
