Move over, Lady Gaga …

Jennifer Lopez is the number one celebrity this year on the ‘Forbes Celebrity 100″ list … ousting Gaga, who was at the top of the list in 2011.
.
Forbes compiles its annual Celebrity 100 list by taking into account pretax income (from May 1, 2011 to May 1, 2012) and fame of the stars — meaning how often we see their names and faces on TV, in movies and online. The list also uses their social media following as a gauge of their fame.
.
Taking all of that into consideration, J.Lo raked in a whopping $52 million in the past year … and is considered to be not only a star, but a brand.
.
Other stars that made the list: Oprah (#2); The Biebs (#3); Rihanna (#4); Lady Gaga, who came in at #5, and Kim Kardashian, who was at #6. Sister Khloe came in at #73, and Ashton Kutcher — who has a dedicated twitter following — came in at #51.
.
Here’s the entire list.

Who do you think should have topped Forbes’ list?
