Floyd Mayweather is This Year’s Highest-Paid Entertainer
“Forbes” released its Celebrity 100 list of the highest-paid entertainers, and FLOYD MAYWEATHER JR. is on top, after pulling down $285
million over the past year.
All but $10 million of that came from his fight with CONOR MCGREGOR . . . who finished 12th with $99 million.
GEORGE CLOONEY came in second with $239 million, thanks to the sale of his Casamigos tequila brand. That’s the biggest payday for any actor in the history of
the Celebrity 100.
Near-billionaire KYLIE JENNER is third, although she “only” made $166.5 million over the past year. It may be tough, but she IS expected to survive.
DIDDY suffered a massive drop this year, after topping the list in 2017. Last year, he banked $130 million thanks to a huge tour and the sale of some of his Sean
John clothing line. This year he fell to #32, with a take of $64 million.
