Adele Tops Richest Musicians List
Adele has topped the new Sunday Times (London) list of music stars under 30. Last year, in which she released no new album, she earned around $68 million. One of the things I admire about the “Rolling in the Deep” singer is that, after her massive success in 2012, she took herself out of the constant media spotlight. This is a throwback to pre-social-media days, when stars, after exposing themselves to media glare with a new album or movie, retreated for a year or two, to give everyone a break.
