Calvin Harris is the world's highest paid DJ once again

Calvin Harris has once again topped Forbes’ list of highest paid DJs in the world.

Though the Scottish DJ saw his earnings drop by $3 million this year - a catastrophic amount of money for most people - it was but a drop in the ocean for him. He still earned $63 million, making him the highest paid DJ in the world for the fourth year running.

Whilst he earns a sizeable amount from his many hit records, Harris gets much of his income from $400,000 a show Las Vegas sets. Yes, that’s $400,000. A show.

Tiesto is at No.2 on the list - though at $38 million, his earnings are significantly lower than those of Harris. David Guetta is at No.3, while Zedd and Steve Aoki complete the top 5.
