Richest Teens
Of The Year

M Magazine has released their list of the Richest Teens of 2011. Find out which teen star came out on top –and which Jonas Brother earns more than the rest.

Miley Cyrus and Justin Bieber

From TV shows to movie roles and fashion lines, teen stars are pulling in some serious cash. Which star pulled in the most dough in 2011? M Magazine compiled the list of the teen stars that are rich beyond their wildest dreams!

Miley Cyrus can sing, act, dance -- and has proven that she is a triple threat that can pull in the big bucks. The 18-year old star tops the list with an estimated net worth of $120 million! She started in the business in 2001 with her show Hannah Montana and has branched out to movies and an extremely successful recording career. Sure, she has had her share of controversy (ahem, smoking salvia, racy photos), but this publicity has not hurt the bottom line of her money making abilities.

Coming in second place is Justin Bieber, with an estimated net worth of $65.5 million. The Biebs first album sold 700,000 copies in three weeks, and he has branched out to movies – and even a nail polish line. I have a feeling this 17-year-old teen sensation isn't going anywhere soon.

Which Jonas Brother makes the most money? Let's hope there's not any sibling rivalry in the trio, Nick Jonasbecause Nick Jonas is the third highest grossing teen, out earning his brothers Kevin and Joe with an estimated net worth of $18 million.

Who else made the list? Check out the Top 10 below.

Miley Cyrus is the youngest recording artist ever with four #1 albums in less than 3 years. In June 2011, Cyrus was named by the Rolling Stones magazine a queen of pop, she was named #8 based on album sales selling 2.027 million copies. also, she was named #7 based on digital tracks selling 14.763 million digital copies, #5 based on youtube views with 784,667,358 views, #12 based on radio airplay with 216 airplay's, #11 based on Billboard hot 100 appearances with 164.2 points, and #9 based on social networking with 14.9 million Facebook likes, and 1.4 million Twitter followers. lastly, she was named #6 based off the gross of her tours with 66.5 million dollars in grossing, #14 based off award wins, in this case the Teen Choice Awards did not count and only mainstream-awards counted such as the Grammy Awards and awards like that in the music category, #14 based on album reviews. Out of all the rankings for the categories, she was name on the official "Queen of Pop" list at #8 behind Beyonce, Katy Perry, best friend Taylor Swift, her inspiration Britney Spears and many more. She also beat out Carrie Underwood, Nicki Minaj, Adele, Christina Aguilera, and many more. Therefore she'll never be forgotten & as long as I'm alive Miley is one talented young lady & she's here to stay....

Not that surprised 'coz even though bieber's been loved by beliebers... he's not yet acting in movies too much so... movies make a lot more money anyway... but to those people who said that this result isn't valid, ofcourse it isn't we can't actually measure the sum of money one has... we can only estimate and due to miley's projects and her album sales... how she made the climb and party in the usa phenomenon... she's worth to be on top. :) But we probably shouldn't do things like this...estimating money of idols... FANS are getting into war becoz of this. Radiate Love.

Beautiful Trainwreck August 11, 2011 | 6:49 PM

I don't think that this data is valid, still thinking Bieber is the richest teens on earth. By the way, Miley bad in acting, her Imdb rating never been good, ever. But as singer, she's better than that Black chick.

Erin August 11, 2011 | 1:20 PM

This is totally laughable. There's no way that Miley Cyrus makes that much and if it's actually true, then Miley better start saving up that money because in 5 years no one will even remember the name Miley Cyrus or Hannah Montana. Selena Gomez, Demi Lovato, Nick Jonas, and Abigail Breslin are the only one's on that list that have staying power into their adult careers because they actually have genuine talent unlike half of the others listed.

Leah Laustsen August 11, 2011 | 11:05 AM

Yay Miley you go Girl I love you a lot and Justin Bieber,Nick Jonas you guys go you Rock.

Darcy August 11, 2011 | 11:03 AM

Wow, who knew Miley made that much. Even if people can compare Selena to her, she makes WAY more than Selena ever will. Guess that's what happens when you become the star of Disney's most successful tv show. Plus, she is a better singer than most of the people on that list. Miranda Cosgrove gets payed a lot of each Icarly episode, and she is a generally more relatable celeb. :) Demi's going to probably roll in the money with her new album, but for Miley, wow. $120 million has really set the bar up high.
