Forbes stila la classifica delle celebrità più ricche del 2017

L'annuale classifica stilata da Forbes riguardante le celebrità più pagate del mondo è stata pubblicata oggi. La lista, come ogni anno, prende in considerazione diverse personalità del mondo dello spettacolo, della tv e della musica senza discriminazioni di sorta.

Il reddito di ciascuna personalità all'interno della lista di Forbes è calcolato senza tenere in considerazione eventuali tasse per manager, avvocati o agenti e copre un arco di tempo che va dal 1° Giugno 2016 al 1° Giugno 2017.

È stato interessante sapere come si sono posizionati i personaggi del mondo del DJing: con non troppa sorpresa Calvin Harris è il DJ più pagato del mondo anche quest'anno ed ha raggiunto la quarantesima posizione con i suoi 48,5 milioni di dollari. Il DJ scozzese è seguito nella classifica da Tiësto (39 Milioni di dollari) e da The Chainsmokers (38 Milioni di dollari). Assenti dalla lista alcuni artisti EDM come Steve Aoki, Zedd e Martin Garrix che invece sono stati inclusi nella Electronic Cash Kings List (sempre di Forbes).

I dati sono stati raccolti da fonti e database quali Nielsen, NPD Bookscan, Pollstar, Box Office Mojo, Songkick, D’Marie e IMDB. Qui di seguito la Lista Completa:
