Justin Bieber: venture capitalist? That’s how the cover of Forbes‘ “Celebrity 100″ issue describes the Biebs, accompanied by a photo of Justin looking sharp in a business suit. The Biebs ranks at No. 3 on the magazine’s list of 2012′s top-earning celebs, estimating his year-end profits at $55 million. A video interview, featuring Justin’s manager Scooter Braun, reveals the secrets behind Justin’s business empire.

“He’s extremely savvy for his age,” Scooter says of his mini-mogul. “No one’s ever been this young and this famous before.”

Justin also talks about how he tries to work some form of charity into everything he does, as he feels it’s important to inspire his fans to give back.

This super expensive piece of aerodynamic metal that most established celebrities can’t even afford leaves us wondering — who slipped Soulja Boy the $55 Million while we weren’t looking?

Let’s do the math: according to Gawker.com, Forbes estimated that the rapper made around $6 million in 2010! Even if you include profits from ringtones, the numbers just don’t add up!

And the follow-up album definitely hasn’t produced enough dough to bump up his income for the rap star to acquire his own jet!

Sorry Soulja Boy, we just don’t see how you’re doing it!

The Forbes‘ 400 richest people in the United States came out today, and Oprah remains the true queen of media!

The Forbes 400, the annual list of the wealthiest people in the country, was released Sept. 22 and media mogul Oprah Winfrey, who is worth a whopping $2.7 billion, is 130 on the list.

“Her TV show has 40 million-plus viewers; broadcasts to 147 countries; 2.4 million read her Oprah Magazine; her site attracts 7.4 million monthly unique visitors,” Forbes reports on the 56-year-old Chicago native.

Not surprisingly, Bill Gates and Warren Buffet topped the list as the richest guys of the year, worth $54 and $45 billion respectively. Although the Forbes list is very obviously still a boys’ club, we’re glad to see Oprah is still the queen of all media!
