Artists generally make more money through endorsements than actual record sales. They only get a small percentage of the actual sales from their album. This just means Briteny sold out more than the average "singer".
Britney has done ads for Pepsi and those rollerskate/shoe things. So a huge chunk of her money probably comes from those contracts.
She appeals to the LCD. Sex, superficial lyrics, standard pop music. It sells, it's a formula. You could substitute any number of good-looking people in place of Britney and they could, and most likely, would be just as sucessful. That's what the music industry does, they come up with something they know sells and copy it a million times over.
