Forbes just published its annual list of The World’s Highest-Paid Celebrities and Calvin Harris is holding it down at No. 50 — the only electronic music producer in the Top 50 for 2018.
Riding out the success of his fifth studio album Funk Wav Bounces Vol. 1 and staying well booked in Las Vegas are key factors that land Harris his spot with a cool $48 million. Sandwiched in between Lady Gaga and Paul McCartney, he’s certainly in good company.
Floyd Mayweather is No. 1, followed by George Clooney, Kylie Jenner, Judy Sheindlin — who knew Judge Judy was making bank?! — and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson rounding out the Top 5. Calvin’s ex, Taylor Swift and collaborator Katy Perry both make the list at No. 21 and No. 19, respectively.
The Chainsmokers also find themselves at No. 59 with $45.5 million collectively.
To put this all into perspective, Drake comes in at No. 53 with $47 million.
