UPDATED JUNE 5, 2020 12:51 PM EDT

Forbes Magazine has released their list of the World’s 100 Highest-Paid Celebrities for 2020 and  Kylie Jenner  is in the clear lead. Despite having previously removed the ‘billionaire status’ they had once given her in a very public and highly contested announcement, the youngest of the Kardashian-Jenners seems to have come out on top again by taking the top spot on their list with her total celebrity earnings. She isn’t the only member of her family to land within the top 10, brother-in-law  Kanye West  took the number two spot with his earnings. Check out below who also landed within the coveted top 10 along with two of the most talked about people of the Kardashian-Jenner clan.

The founder of Kylie Cosmetics took the lead with her $590 million paycheck.

Kylie made her first appearance on the magazine’s Billionaires List in March 2019, but recently had the title removed due to her updated net worth of $900 million.

Unlike Kylie Jenner and Kanye West, Forbes did not mention tennis pro Roger’s net worth. But he did take the third spot on the list with his annual earnings of $106.3 million, so it’s safe to say he’s doing just fine.
