What might be a little surprisingly is that the erstwhile Beats owner made a whopping $500 million dollars more than any other musician within the year in review, largely thanks to the sale of the same Beats brand to Apple for $3 billion.

Beyonce came in second, making $115 million. This is her biggest haul yet according to Forbes, yet that pales in significance to Dre’s haul.

Whatever he was going home to do with the food is not necessary, the fact is, he lives a life just like most of us despite his billions. He doesn’t want to be wasteful and therefore decided to take it home, probably to eat it later or for the cats/dogs.
