#CoupleGoals! Beyoncé and Jay Z are celebrating amazing news

Beyoncé and Jay Z are two of the world's hardest working musicians in the business, and as a result of their efforts, the pair have nabbed the number one spot on the 2016 Forbes celebrity couple list.

The Carter's managed to rake in a whopping €97 million in the last 12 months, allowing them to claim the throne as the world's highest earning celebrity couple.

Queen Bey made a cool €49 million this year by playing 19 shows in the past 12 months, and releasing her successful new album, Lemonade

“I’ve never met anyone that works harder than me in my industry,” the songstress once told Forbes.

Jay Z has not released music in three years, but has been busy with a number of other ventures.

The award winning rapper makes millions on his Armand de Brignac champagne, D’Ussé cognac and entertainment company Roc Nation, along with his streaming service Tidal and his 40/40 nightclub in New York City.

Last year's top earning couple was the musical duo Taylor Swift, and ex-boyfriend, and hugely successful DJ, Calvin Harris. 

Had these two music moguls remained an item, they would have been listed as the highest earning celebrity couple in the world, ahead of Beyoncé and Jay Z.
