3. Lana Del Rey
4. Beyonce
5. Pink
6. Lady Gaga
7. Taylor Swift

10. Miley Cyrus
This is the second year in a row that Rihanna has topped the list, and Spotify has also confirmed that she was the most popular female artist in the UK. Rihanna is set to record a concept album later this year based around Dreamworks' upcoming animated film 'Home.'
