Forbes released their 2020 edition of The World’s Highest-Paid Celebrities list on December 14. Beauty Moghul Kylie Jenner has topped the list with a wide margin earning approximately $590 million this year, which is approx Rs. 4333 crores.
According to Forbes, "Jenner’s payday came from selling a 51% stake in her cosmetics firm to Coty in January. While she had exaggerated over the years about the size of her business, the money she pulled in from the deal was real--enough to rank as one of the biggest celebrity cashouts of all time."

Soccer player Lionel Messi ranks No. 5 on the list with earnings of $104 million followed by actor-filmmaker Tyler Perry who earned $97 million this year but his net worth is $1 billion in real-time.
