Tim McGraw is the MASTER of crossover duets!!

From Nelly to Gwyneth Paltrow to the wonderfully tragic Highway Don't Care with Taylor Swift, the king of country has worked with many of the industry's best and the brightest!

While he aspires to work with even more great artists, he just doesn't see a future with Justin Bieber!!!

On Tuesday he revealed:

HEY! What did you expect?!

This is the QUEEN we're talking about, after all!

And when Her Madgesty goes on tour, NO ONE can beat her! Not even Bruce Springsteen, thankyouverymuch!

At least when it comes to finances, that is!

And no, we're not just talking about in North America! We already SAW how she dominated there!

According to Billboard's 2013 list of the top 40 highest-grossing musicians of the past 12 months, which, of course, takes into consideration album, touring, and publishing revenue, it was Madonna who come out on top, with an absolutely UNREAL $34,577,308.62!

Of course, she has to attribute some of that chunk of change to the OUT-OF-CONTROL, $305 million success of her SUPREME MDNA tour, but given the incredible amount of tireless work she put into making the show as wonderful as it was, we'd say the money is MORE than deserved!

But don't worry, Springsteen fans! You shouldn't be TOO disappointed!

The Boss wasn't too far behind with an equally-impressive $33.4 million, with a portion of that coming from the $200 million his Wrecking Ball Tour took in!

AH-MAY-ZING!

We couldn't be more thrilled to see two LEGENDS still at the top of their game, after all this time!

But check out the entire top 40 money-makers in music over the past 12 months…AFTER THE JUMP!!!

Last year, the Grammys were rocked by the passing of Whitney Houston less than 24 hours before the event.

Now, with the Grammys coming up this Sunday, it’d be impossible to not revisit that moment.

CBS will be airing an hour-long special, The Grammys Will Go On: A Death in the Family, on Saturday night with Taylor Swift, LL Cool J, Bruce Springsteen, Jennifer Hudson and many others talking about suddenly losing the legend.

The special will also include a first look at show producers trying to rework the event in order to pay tribute to the one and only Whitney.

We know where we’ll be Saturday night.

You mean the Silver Fox isn't perfect?!

Anderson Cooper revealed his potty mouth last night at Sean Penn's second annual Help Haiti Home benefit at the Montage hotel in Beverly Hills.

The esteemed CNN anchor cussed at the podium to make a more passionate case for donations to the J/P Haitian Relief Organization.

Anderson even said:

What's higher? A knight or a Boss?

Well, according to Elton John, it's the Boss himself Bruce Springsteen!

And MusiCares agrees! The charity is naming Bruce its Person of the Year for his work in support of Hurricane Sandy relief. CEO Neil Portnow says:

The rumors were so wonderfully TRUE.

As if we needed anymore evidence that the Beatle was supernaturally talented!!

Paul McCartney did in fact stand in for the late grunge king, Kurt Cobain, at the 12-12-12: Concert for Sandy Relief in a reunion show with Nirvana’s Dave Grohl and Krist Novoselic and let’s just say Paul took his vocal cords where no beatle had gone before.

Before the 60’s and 90’s joined forces in a mind-altering time warp with the new song, Cut Me Some Slack, other talent like Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band, The Rolling Stones, The Who, Eric Clapton, Kanye West, Roger Waters, Alicia Keys, Eddie Vedder, on Bon Jovi and Billy Joel also took to the Madison Square Garden stage.

So many legends!!! It was probably better that we weren’t there because we might've imploded with HAPPINESS!

If only Paul had worn a flannel and ripped up jeans. That would’ve really been a sight!! LOLZ!!

Watch the once-in-a-lifetime performance (above)!!!

Get ready, Madison Square Garden!

Kanye West and Alicia Keys are about to BLOW YO' MINDS!!

To combat the damage done by that bitch Sandy, Yeezy and Keesy will perform in a star-studded lineup for a new hurricane relief extravaganza called The Concert For Sandy Relief!

They'll be joining forces with Paul McCartney, Bruce Springsteen, Jon Bon Jovi, and The Who on December 12, so make sure you mark those calenders!!

All proceeds from the event will go to the Robin Hood Relief Fund. And all photos from the event will go to PerezHilton.com!

Haaaaa! JK — you know what we mean! ;)
