Ever get the feeling somebody is making a whole lot of money off Britney Spears besides Britney Spears? Portfolio magazine estimates the annual value of Britney Spears to the U.S. economy is 110 million to 120 million dollars -- and that's when she isn't even touring. Portfolio estimates record companies, promoters and licensors make 30 million to 40 million because of endorsements, record sales and other business. It estimates the paparazzi make 4 mil from selling photos of her. Celebrity tabloids, Web traffic and other media make an estimated 75 million off her in a year.

K-Fed reportedly gets $30,000 from nightclubs just to show up.
