"  Photo: Getty Oprah may have reigned as Forbes&amp;#039; #1 Most Powerful Celebrity in the past (most recently in 2011 and 2013), but she&amp;#039;s finally abdicated her spot on this year&amp;#039;s list to the one and only Queen Bey. The singer now sits at #1, while the media mogul has dropped to #4. The reason: &amp;quot;The three celebrities ranked above her just have more influence and power at this moment.&amp;quot; Related: There Are More Female Billionaires Than Ever, According to Forbes Now, being the fourth most powerful celebrity is certainly not anything to sneeze at\u2014Oprah raked in a cool $82 million last year. But, &amp;quot;Beyonc\u00E9 doesn&amp;#039;t stop with music\u2014she&amp;#039;s built a small business empire,&amp;quot; Forbes reminds us. &amp;quot;She earns millions endorsing companies like H&amp;amp;amp;M and Pepsi.

Of course, it&amp;#039;s not lonely at the top: Jay Z (or should we say Mr. Beyonc\u00E9 Knowles) also made the list&amp;#039;s top ten at #6. The two other lucky individuals who can now say &amp;quot;I BEAT OPRAH&amp;quot; are LeBron James and Dr. Dre, at #2 and #3, respectively. Ellen Degeneres rounded out the top five, probably for taking the world&amp;#039;s most best selfie. Justin Beiber is the youngest on the list at #33 (um, really?), followed by Miley Cyrus at #17, Kate Upton at #94, and Jennifer Lawrence at #12. And, it&amp;#039;s worth noting that the top ten was an even split between men and women (with Rihanna and Katy Perry contributing to that cause). We&amp;#039;ll take it. And, well...
