Magic Johnson, Sean Combs and Oprah Winfrey are the three blacks on the first-ever ranking of the Top 10 Celebrity Entrepreneurs, by Inc. Magazine.

Inc. chose these top star entrepreneurs based on their business ideas, day to day involvement in their respective businesses, and how much they give back to their communities. Magic Johnson was ranked #1 based on the US $700 million empire he has built over the pass ten years, largely by opening movie theaters and other businesses in previously ignored black neighbor hoods. The former NBA star is followed by #2 Sean Combs of Bad Boy Entertainment (music, fashion, restaurants) and #6 Oprah Winfrey (The Oprah Winfrey Show, Oxygen Media, and O Magazine).
