(Radio.com) Katy Perry beat superstar Taylor Swift as the top woman in earnings this year according to the Forbes' "World's Highest-Paid Women in Music" list for 2015.

It was Perry's Prismatic World Tour that helped push her to the $135 million mark. Aside from the $2 million she grossed in each city, she also benefitted from lucrative deals with Coty, Claire's and Covergirl.

Taylor Swift came in second. A best selling album combined with her 1989 Tour earned Swift an estimated $80 million. Fleetwood Mac sits at number three, with $59.5 million, though the band does include three men. Read more and see the top 5 list here.
