The outlet projects she earned $148 million in 2025 before taxes &#8230; making her the third-highest-paid musician in the world.<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"continued\" class=\"continued-anchor\"\/><\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s not all &#8230; Forbes goes to say her NFL Christmas Day halftime show rang up around $50 million (including production costs), while her string of Levi\u2019s commercials added another $10 million to the pile.<\/p>\n<p>A big reason why \u201cThe Queen\u201d continues to rake it in is that she controls nearly every aspect of her career through her company, Parkwood Entertainment. Parkwood oversees her empire &#8212; managing her career and producing her music, documentaries, and tours &#8212; while fronting the costs herself to scoop up the biggest slice of the back-end profits.<\/p>\n<p>Safe to say &#8230; Queen Bey-llionaire is officially in a league of her own.
