The Sunday Times Rich list has been revealed and shows that out of all young musicians in the UK, Adele comes out on top.

Her nearest rival was Cheryl Cole but Adele doesn't appear to have anything to worry about any time soon; she earns around twice that of her closest rival.

This is the second year in a row that Adele has topped the list and she is now worth a cool £30 million, £10 million more than last year and it is rumoured that the “Skyfall” singer makes at least £41,000 a day.

Cheryl Cole was reportedly worth £14 million and it was the second year that she came in second to Adele but it’s not all bad news as she did increase her wealth by £2 million.

Leona Lewis came in at number three in the list with £12 million which is largely made through album sales and her ethical perfume for Bodyshop.

Katie Melua and Florence Welch complete the top five with Melua worth £12 million and Welch £9 million.

Unfortunately for the One Direction boys, they fell further down the list because despite the fact that their combined wealth adds up to £25 million, that only equates to £5 million each.
