Beyonce Tops List of 50 Most Powerful Moms

Bret Hartman/CBSBeyonce makes everything look easy, including motherhood. With Mother’s Day right around the corner, the singer tops Working Mother‘s newly released Most Powerful Moms list, which spotlights 50 women in advertising and media.

As she raises her three-year-old daughter, Blue Ivy, the singer gets credit for being named Forbes‘ Top Earning Woman in the Music last year all while embracing her family life. “She’s also an artist who carves out her own way and stays on top by keeping everyone on their toes,” the magazine writes.

“Working Mother has been around for 35 years, and it’s always looked at women who are devoted to both their families and their careers,”  Editorial Director Jennifer Owen tells AdWeek. “The list is a reflection of that.”

“We have chosen women with at least one child under age 18 who, along with obvious power, share many markers: mental and emotional strength, career courage, the ability to inspire, love of family and the passion to better the world,” Owens explained. “It’s a fitting tribute at a time when we celebrate moms everywhere.”

The list is broken into eight categories and sees Kanye West‘s wife Kim Kardashian coming in at #4, followed by Jennifer Lopez at #7.
