Men lie, women lie, ….you know the rest. Anyway the 2011 Forbes list is in and the top earners are looking pretty familiar. Coming in at number 1 this year is Sean “P. Diddy” Combs who’s Sean John line and Ciroc Vodka business ventures have turned into cash cows, well Ciroc anyway. Him and Jay-Z were about neck and neck with Diddy topping off at a cool $475 million and Jay-Z $450. The next 3 in line are Dr. Dre, 50 Cent, and Birdman who stays true to his “HUNDRED MILLION DOLLA”S” catch phrase. One things for certain all these guys are winning, word to Sheen.

1. Diddy ($475 million)

2. Jay-Z ($450 million)

3. Dr. Dre ($125 million)

4. 50 Cent ($100 million)

5. Birdman ($100 million)
