Most of that comes from her mobile game Kim Kardashian: Hollywood, as well as Instagram endorsements, subscriptions to her app, and subscriptions to her self-styled emojis, Kimoji, according to Forbes.

But it's not just Kardashian West - her sisters fill out six of the seven spots on the ranking. After Kim comes lip kit savant Kylie Jenner, who brought in $18 million, followed by her model sister Kendall Jenner, who brought in $17 million.
