Forbes Celebrity 100 Includes 3 Top 10 Aunties!

Written By Savvy Auntie Staff Writers
The numbers are in: three Savvy Aunties have made it to the top of Forbes Magazine's annual Celebrity 100, a ranking of the highest-paid and most highly visible celebrities in the country.
Oprah Winfrey, auntie to best friend Gayle King's son, William Bumpus, led the pack with a cool $315 million in income as well as the highest money and TV rankings.
Winfrey was closely followed by Beyoncé Knowles, auntie to sister Solange's son Julez. Knowles came in lower in the income ranks but got a huge boost from her number two Web rank.
Lady Gaga, the newest auntie on Forbes' block, came in fourth, snapping up the number one rankings in both Web and social media. While she doesn't have nieces or nephews just yet, being an auntie to all those little monsters probably didn't hurt in getting her onto the list!
The Celebrity 100 is a measure of entertainment-related earnings and media visibility (exposure in print, television, radio and online). Rankings include actors, TV personalities, models, athletes, authors, musicians and comedians.
And speaking of comedians, we'd like to give a shout-out to Savvy Auntie Chelsea Handler, who also made the list!
