Forbes has come out with their list of Highest-Paid Musicians (between July 2012 to June 2013) and Justin has been named as the 6th highest earner raking in $58 million.
No. 6: Justin Bieber ($58 million)
Since appearing on the cover of FORBES last year, the Canadian crooner has toured the world and earned another $58 million (that sum would have been even higher if we hadn’t credited him with a double-digit million-dollar merchandise advance last year). He also owns stakes in startups including Enflick, Tinychat and Spotify.
