Now in its fifth year, the heat Rich List lays bare the wallets of Britain’s wealthiest young stars.
A panel of industry experts analysed the stars’ financial dealings: the TV shows, movies, record sales and product endorsements, adding them together to work out how much money is in their celebrity bank vaults. Each entry has to be an entertainer, under the age of 30 and born in, or chiefly reside in, the UK.
Commenting on the results, heat editor Suzy Cox said: “Even one member down, One Direction are the richest stars under-30 for the third year running. Though with their 'break' imminent in March, this could be Reggie 'N' Bollie's time to steal their crown.”
