Kylie Jenner, U.S reality TV star and entrepreneur has topped Forbes magazine’s annual list of highest-paid celebrities for 2020.
According to the list, released on Thursday, the 22-year-old reality star achieved the feat with a total earning of $590 million, which came from selling a 51% stake in her cosmetics firm to Coty in January.
The other top nine earners include rapper and fashion designer Kanye West, with $170 million, pro athletes Roger Federer, Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi, Neymar, LeBron James, and Hollywood heavy-hitters Tyler Perry, Howard Stern, and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.
The development comes amid recent feud between Jenner and the business magazine over her billionaire status.
Last week, Forbes published an explosive report insisting she isn’t really a billionaire and alleged she faked numbers about her net worth.
The American business magazine accused the Kylie Cosmetics founder of previously “inflating the size and success of her business” to the publication “for years” in order to appear richer than she really is.
Jenner, had however, slammed at the US magazine, claiming its article was based “a number of inaccurate statements and unproven assumptions.”
