Billboard Magazine has published the list of the most lucrative artists for 2019 • You will not believe where Ariana Grande is • And where is Taylor Swift?
With nearly six decades of experience on stage and no direction on the horizon for retirement, the British rock band The Rolling Stones occupy the top of the list of the most lucrative music artists in the world.
Even though last year's tour was halted following a valve replacement surgery in the heart of mythical vocalist Mick Jagger, 77, the band showed two months later that its power was still at its waist and returned to the stage successfully, with previously postponed dates still unknown. The entire tour has so far grossed $ 415.6 million since 2017, and is already ranked ninth on the list of the most lucrative tours of all time.
