Justin Bieber is Forbes' highest-earning celebrity under 30 pocketing $80m this year: Also top 10 list


The big bucks: Justin Bieber tops the 2014 Forbes' highest-earning celebrities under 30 list earning $80m from June 2013 - June 2014

As of lately he is known more for his bad behavior rather than his music. But despite his misguided conduct, Justin Bieber landed at the top spot on Forbes' list of the highest-earning celebrities under 30. The 20-year-old singer earned an estimated $80million from June 2013 to June 2014, in part thanks to the final leg of his money-spinning world tour.

The controversial musician is reportedly returning to his music roots collaborating with Cody Simpson for a duets album that is soon to be released. It's been almost a year since Justin's last album Journals was released in December 23, 2013. He raked in the majority of his earnings after he finished up his second concert tour, Believe, on December 8, 2013 which collected $69.9m from 67 shows.

Meanwhile, the Forbes top ten featured eight other musical acts, including One Direction, Taylor Swift and Rihanna. The only actor on the list was Hunger Games: Mockingjay star Jennifer Lawrence, 24, who came in seventh place with $34m. Rounding out the rankings, based on entertainment-related income, were EDM DJs Avicii, $28m, and Skrillex with $18m.
