She made $33.7 million of that amount just from touring alone as well. After Ariana Grande was Elton John ($43.3 million overall), the Jonas Brothers ($40.9 million) and Queen ($35.2 million).

Ellen DeGeneres Increasing Perks For Her Employees
Ellen DeGeneres has a response to employees claiming that her talk show is a toxic work environment... clean house and increase perks for her employees! Apparently staffers will receive 5 more paid days off and a generous medical leave policy. This can also be a sign that The Ellen DeGeneres Show isn't going anywhere, even after WarnerMedia’s ongoing investigation. The new benefits package also includes birthdays off and paid time for medical appointments and family matters. Do you think this will improve morale on the set?
