I guess Taylor is picking up the tab at the next squad night out.*
Pop queen and Grammy winner Taylor Swift has been named the top-earning celebrity of 2016 by Forbes (http://www.forbes.com/sites/zackomalleygreenburg/2016/07/11/taylor-swift-is-the-worlds-top-earning-celebrity-with-170-million-in-2016/#13c31b3d354c).*
Thanks to her 1989 World Tour and sponsorship deals with companies like Diet Coke and Apple, Swift has brought in $170 million dollars in 2016 alone. She jumped seven spots on the list, after tying for 8th place with Robert Downey Jr. (http://www.forbes.com/pictures/eeel45ffgdm/8-robert-downey-jr/#38bca9195b49) in 2015.*
They both made a mere $80 million.*

Calvin Harris, Swift's recent ex-boyfriend, also made an appearance on the list at 21, having earned $63 million - roughly a third of Taylor's earnings. Had the pair **t split, they would have beaten Beyonce and Jay Z (http://www.forbes.com/sites/zackomalleygreenburg/2016/07/11/taylor-swift-is-the-worlds-top-earning-celebrity-with-170-million-in-2016/#13c31b3d354c) for the title of highest earning celebrity couple.* Read more...
