Following her Grammy success, pop diva Lady Gaga has another reason to celebrate as she has been named the highest-earning pop star of 2010.The ‘Poker Face’ hitmaker topped Billboard’s money makers list, raking in $30.5 million last year. Rockers Bon Jovi regained second slot with $30.4 million and Pink Floyd star Roger Waters clinched third slot with USD 24.4 million.Teen sensation Justin Bieber rounded the top five with $22.4 million, Contactmusic reported.”Lady Gaga was inescapable in 2010. The pop singer, only a few years removed from her original hair colour and shows at small downtown New York venues, so thoroughly dominated the last year that it seemed almost a foregone conclusion that she would top the Money Makers list,” a Billboard spokesman said.Other celebrities to make it to the top 10 included Country star Taylor Swift earning $20.7 million, Michael Buble $19.8 million, Eagles $18.3 million, Black Eyed Peas $16.8 million and Sir Paul McCartney with $14.1 million.
