Beyoncé tops Forbes most powerful celebrities list beating husband Jay Z and billionaire businessman Dr Dre

They do not call her Queen B for nothing.

Beyoncé has been named the most powerful celebrity in the world on Forbes' annual Celebrity 100 list.

The 32-year-old has her massive tour to thank for helping her beat out LeBron James, Dr Dre and even Oprah.

According to Forbes, the star amassed a small fortune from her Mrs. Carter Show World Tour 2014 which made on average an amazing $2.4 million at each one of its 95 stops.

That combined with a number one self-titled album - which reached the top with little promotion - and a platinum single Drunk In Love cemented her status.

But not only is she the top celebrity and top female celebrity, she is also one half of the most powerful celebrity couple.

While Beyoncé may have ranked higher than her partner Jay Z, together they are the king and queen of pop culture.

 Last year's number one Oprah missed the top shot, seen here in March, slipped to number four on the list as while she made $82 million and is known for her ability to create trends, was deemed less influential
