Adele has been named the richest musician under 30 in the UK for the second years in a row, with wealth estimated at twice that of her closest cash rival, Cheryl Cole.

The 'Skyfall' singer hit the top spot in the list from the Sunday Times - for the second year in a row. Adele is worth £30 million, which is a £10 million from last year, and is apparently making at least £41,000 a day.

Cheryl Cole was in No 2, worth £14 million and second to Adele for the second year in a row. Her wealth has increased by £2 million since last year. At No 3 is Leona Lewis, who is worth £12 million and makes her money through album sales, her autobiography and an ethical perfume for Bodyshop.

No 4 goes to Katie Melua, worth £12 million due to royalties from her songs being used on film soundtracks and adverts, and No 5 is Florence Welch with £9 million. Charlotte Church follows at No 6 with £8 million, then Jessie J at No 7 with £8 million.


Cheryl and bandmate Nicola Roberts both made the young rich list

The top 10 is rounded out by Lily Allen with £6 million at No 8, Nadine Coyle at No 9 also with £6 million and Duffy at No 10 with £6 million.

JLS, James Morrison, Nicola Roberts, One Direction, Emeli Sande and Ed Sheeran all also made the list.

Despite being worth £25 million combined, One Direction fell down the list due to the fact that only adds up to £5 million each.
