Beyoncé and Jay-Z were the highest earning couple in show business last year, according to a new report from Forbes. The undisputed king and queen of urban music raked in an impressive $122 million from July 2008 to July 2009, far surpassing the runners up, Harrison Ford and Calista Flockhart, who pulled in a mere $69 million.
Beyoncé was the main breadwinner in the Carter-Knowles house this year, more than doubling Hov's income with total earnings of $87 million. With all her extra money, Beyoncé may dabble in events planning, according to her husband.
In a recent interview with Britain's The Sun, Jay offered up Beyoncé's services to U.K. pop star Robbie Williams, who is rumored to be getting married in the near future.
"She is great at organising parties, she loves it," he said. "I don't know what Robbie's entertainment plans are but, as a wedding present, I would get up after the speeches and do a little set."
