Is there anything Taylor Swift can't do? The talented singer-songwriter is only 22, and she's already on top of Forbes' list of the 10 highest-paid celebrities under 30. The magazine estimates that between May 2011 and May 2012, the country-pop sensation earned an astounding $57 million, with her concerts alone raking in an average of $1 million per night. Not too shabby, Ms. Swift!
But who said Bieber Fever was over? Justin Bieber, 18, came in second on the list, earning $55 million in the same time period. Rihanna, 24, took third place, with $53 million; Lady Gaga, 26, raked in $52 million; and Katy Perry, 27, rang up the cash register to the tune of $45 million to round out the top five.
There's no doubt that all of these young stars have their own brand of appeal (though we can't say we're a huge fan of Justin Bieber's music), but do they really deserve to be making tens of millions of dollars a year at this point in life? Which one do you think is most overpaid?

NONE are making too much, after all, they are only making what their adoring fools generate in income for them. Were they NOT worth it, they would not be making it, even more so than sports figures who can linger on long term amazingly expensive contracts, entertainment folks come and go with frenetic speed, most not on long term or guaranteed contracts.
From the crowd shots of her concerts there are a number of adult chaperones in the audience and I have yet to s biker dressed hood causing trouble.
You all like to compalin about CEOs making a million or so a year, but you don't have a problem with ENTERTAINERs making tens, or hundreds of millions a year? I believe your priorities and your grasp of reality are screwed-up.
Should I continue?
