Actress and model Naomi Campbell scooped a position in the top ten, whilst Stormzy added to his recent successes being named the 14th most powerful person in London beating the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and Prime Minister Theresa May who ranked at number 30.
Actor Idris Elba made the list at number 22 whilst Britain's most successful-ever distance runner Sir Mo Farah was named the twenty-eighth most powerful person in the capital.
The list takes into consideration various achievements and the level of influence each suggested inductee has in London.
