Beyonce becomes highest paid female entertainer for 2014 with $115 million: Taylor Swift takes second place with $64 million

The year 2014 isn't over yet, but already Beyonce Knowles has grabbed the title of highest paid female performer. This shouldn't come as a surprise as the star has been on a role all year.

Back in 2013, Beyonce took the number 4 spot on the Forbes list of highest paid female entertainer for the year. Taylor Swift claimed the top spot, but things are different in 2014 as Beyonce's tour with husband, Jay-Z, was a massive success that featured in the media on a regular basis.

According to Forbes Magazine on Tuesday, Beyonce earned $115 million for the year, a sum that nearly doubles the amount the star made back in 2013. The magazine credited the star's surprise self-titled studio album that was released back in December of 2013, and the 95 concerts over the course of 2014.
