yeah!are they usefull in the country?not even the industry!exept for a couple….
This is absolutely rediculious. Jennifer Aniston makes more money than Nicole Kidman and the rest of the talented people on this list.
She should be thankful for the divorce money from Brad urgly Maniston.
so angelina is not one of the richest……ok ok hehe..shes with the pretty pitt!..and oh she gives a third of her pay check to the unfortunate!
I wonder how much Angelina is worth. She gives all her money to charity what a wonderful soul.
Anyone know how much Brad and Angelina are worth?
These women should be giving much of their income to charity. Most of them are without children what a waste of beauty, cash and nature.
14 out of 20 are without children. Ladies who are you keeping your money for? You are not going to take it with you six feet under.
Make that 13 out of 20.
I hear Maniston wants to adopt a child.
Poor kid, she should just stick to television actiing.
jolie is charitable woman but she isn’t rich
and maniston I hate her!
How lucky of them! So why do the most of them look so miserable in their lives?
What exactly does net worth mean? Simply everything they ever earned added up minus taxes? I mean how would anyone know how much they have spend of what they earned?
I sure believe Oprah is the richest but some of the other names on the list seem suspicious. How did Jennifer Aniston get this much money? More than Sandra Bullock who’s been in the industry much longer, more successful and even produced some of her huge boxoffice hits? And Judge Judy made 95 mill????
It just goes to show that all that pity that some people get is wasted. These people are not the girls next door. One in particular is a multi millionaire who knows how to spin PR and play on the public sympathy. Other than a few women on the list, to bad this list does not also include their charitable contributions.
***
Every Charitable person is not and will never be rich that is why they have a beautiful soul because as you know when you become rich that is all you are concern about the green paper but helping people is a whole lot better and fulfilling than being rich.
So Angelina is getting blessed for every life and situation she help change and I can’t tell you how wonderful that is and blessed.
Aren’t the Olsen twins 20 year old?
moahaha,
Jennifer Aniston got her money from Brad Pitt. She does seek sympathy from the public who are a little dump by her I miss Brad so much but did not shed one single tear. Every woman knows that crying helps us cope and release some tension. If Maniston hasn’t cried or shed one tear men she is in some place out of this world and if I was Brad I’ll be very careful with the Man.
I think Jennifer Aniston got money from Friends too, I mean they used to be paid 1 million per episode
Ummm this has to be old… BRIT BRIT IS ONLY WORTH 35 MILLION
I f Jennifer Aniston got money from friends,how about CC?
OH , c’mon miz Aniston. With all the money you got , all you did was a fake hug with a sick child and a face on tv. You can do better than that.!!!
All of you are absolutely ridiculous. I am not an Aniston fan nor do I like Jolie but you are all crazy. Angelina must not be here because she donates. WRONG!!! Net Worth is money that I have in the bank right now after my donations, after my taxes, it is my assets.
I’m sure Angelina is a great person but because you hear about her charity in the paper doesn’t mean jack. Oprah donates almost 100 million a year. Jennifer Aniston donates (go out and actually do some research - she keeps it private.) As do the Olsens and many of the people on that list. For some people who they donate to is their private business, neither person is wrong or right.
Jen has money from friends, the last 2 years she made almost 50 million from friends and for every re-run she gets almost 150,000 so I think she has money. She also has more than CC because she does movies and Cox’s money is now bracketed with her husband, they took the same last name. Her divorce with Brad did not get her money because she was actually worth more money (all because of Friends).
In conclusion, you know absolutely nothing about these people and it’s quite sad that many of you feel like you do. Angelina doesn’t care for you and neither does Brad all they need you to do is go to their movies but after you put your money in their pocket. You are worthless to them
All that money on this list! What the hell are they doing with it? How many houses can one person honestly live in at a time??
I wish that everyone could follow in the philanthropic footsteps of people like the Gates’, Warren Buffett, the Jolie-Pitt’s and Oprah. So many people out there with NOTHING! Could you imagine what a pin drop fraction of the money on this list could mean to less fortunate people who are struggling to even eat every day.
I sometimes wonder, as they are sitting in their $15 mill homes, if they have any idea what it is to look at a child who goes to school every morning and you have to wonder when the last time was that they ate. Or to know that 3/4 of the children in 3rd world countries have NO IDEA what shoes are.
After seeing this “Top 20 Richest Women in Entertainment”. I admire Angelina more. aside from Oprah, how many of them did ever donate money as much as Jolie ?

=========
Even Oprah donates more money PRIVATELY than she ever does PUBLICLY.
Some people just don’t need a press conference every time they write a check.
Rock on Sistahs!
OMG. How is this post becoming an angelina post? STOP IT. You are all pathetic. Before you post about what these women do for charities, etc. Have you ever really researched what Celine Dion or Martha Stewart do for charity? What about the Olson twins?
Seriously. Let it the F8ck go. Why are you not raking Julia Roberts over the coals…why JA only?
by the way though, shocked to see Judge Judy on there. Who knew people’s court could be worth that.
MUAHAHAHAHA!!
I *LOVE* this list.
It shows just how selfish, vain and undeserving Maniston is. It also shows why STEPHEN HUVANE ignores all other CLIENTS on his list of people to wh*re for. Sorry Gwynnie poo. Sorry Kirsten Dunst. Maniston’s on line 2. Keep your Oscars, and you SAG noms. TV sit-com hack, takes precedence. Hey…that money goes through a LOT of mani-pedis PEOPLE!!!! LOLOL Why donate to those less fortunate than yourself when the new and improved versailles ‘French Tip,’ is all the rage. It’s also obvious that she can BUY her own famewh*ring coattail riding coverage.
Angelina is to be admired even MORE after seeing this list.
…and PUH-LEEZE. Most of those r*ch b*tches just keep the dough to themselves, ESPECIALLY that coattail riding famewh*re CHINNIFER MANISTON!!
*(btw, you want to know where MANISTON GOT the BULK of money THAT PUT HER IN THE TOP, and why BOTOX COX and KUDROW aren’t on this list WITH HER….it’s because when she was WITH BRAD PITT, he was generous enough of a husband to include her in PLAN B, HIS PRODUCTION COMPANY…they produced, among other things - CHARLIE & THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY (HELLO??!!)….Plan B, was not Maniston’s idea, nor her baby at any point in time - she was a partner IN NAME ONLY - BRAD pulled her in, because he was with her at the time, and initially it was thought that her lame TV SIT-COM HACK A S S could MAYBE get the FILM ROLES that she OTHERWISE COULD NOT HAVE GOTTEN ON HER OWN, without BRAD PITT she’s just a blonder version of PATRICIA HEATON on Everybody Loves Raymond.) So once again, and in all things she can thank BRAD PITT for why we have to be assaulted with her fug face and her big ol’ moneybags in the way of her bought covers courtesy of Huvane. It’s poetic she is wedged in there with the OLSEN TWINS and Judge Judy. Proof that money cannot buy you status in your field. HAHAHAHA! ALL THAT MONEY and her MOM GOES To the INDIGENT CARE WARD in L.A.?!! What an evil b*tch! WHY DOESN’T *THAT* make the TABLOIDS in a BIG WAY…if Angelina did that, she’d be drummed out of America!
…..and PUH-LEEZE don’t tell me about this one, or that one donating and ‘keeping it quiet,’ first of all - as a celebrity, you have an OBLIGATION to make people AWARE, so that on top of your charitable giving, you MIGHT inspire others to either do the same, or at the very LEAST be aware of a situation (be it disease, famine, the impoverished or disadvantaged!) - no CELEBRITY ’silently and quietly’ donates to issue of import. If they do it ‘quietly’ it’s only because they are CHEAP and they KNOW they could be doing MORE! Besides, Maniston was asked POINT BLANK to HER FACE if she donated, and she responded, ‘I only concentrate on my tabloid career,’ half-serious IMO, and later said, ‘Charity is not ‘my thing.’ She’s just….AWFUL. UGH.
Who knows, maybe this will inspire some of those RB’s to spread the wealth.
For this post alone is why I love Cliniqua. Tell it sister. The woman would be off the lists if it wasn’t for being Mrs. B. Pitt.
Private charity donating my fuzzy butt.

WELL SAID!!!! BRAVO ! BRAVO ! BRAVO ! BRAVO ! BRAVO !
She was also part of plan B when Troy was make. Troy was a blockbuster worldwide.
i dont believe that list. maniston doesnt make that much
Aniston doing charity privately ? and her great PR guru or her close friend won’t leaked it to the tabloids? eat your ass , man ! only the dumbass believe it !!!
I absolutely agree with the last past. The power of a donated sum of money is not just the money itself but the act of giving is inspiring to others. Especially if it is a celebrity donating - the effect of the donation will go far beyond the actual amount of money. In today’s celebrity and idol obsessed world, whether we like it or not, people tend to look up to celebrities and use them as role models. People do what the celebrities do, wear what the celebrities wear and so on!
How many people had heard of the South Africa problems and Namibia if not for Oprah and Angelina and Brad. And how many people would have donated to Oprah’s Angel network that helps people with AIDS, had Oprah made a secret private donation to a South African charity!
So you see - I have no problem with a celebrity getting publicity for an act like that if it means more exposure for the charities as well. The only people that complain about celebrities getting publicity are those who dislike people more successfull than themselves!
CLINIQUA, I’m just loving your rant - it rings sooo true…
Jenn doesnt need publicity for her charity..You people just doesnt like Jolie is not on the list. Kepp angelina with her “lovely family”…
Are my eyes deceiving me? Can someone please explain to me how in the bloody he!l Jennifer Aniston is worth that much? She barely works. The actresses, entertainers, singers on the list (well, at least some of them!) have other businesses (parfum or/and clothing lines, magazines, books, etc.) to build their wealth. How did Jennifer A. get that rich?
That list doesn’t sound right anyway. I thought Mary Kate and Ashley were worth over $100 million EACH?
Maniston was worth 110 Million. Then what is this never ending pity-party all about ?
She and Huvane were really milking the divorce for their own greedy self.
JA did not get money from Pitt. They had a Prenup. She only got money from the Houses. Plus she made tons of money when the show went into syndication. They all get a certain amount of money every time the show comes on (I bet they make over $200,000 per episode, that adds up since it is on like 10 times a day). The last year of Friends they all made $24 million. Sure she did run PlanB but she was an equal in the company. But yeah she didn’t get any money from him in the divorce. If you go and look at the papers she is the one who wrote “no spousal support”.
I ment …Sure BP ran PlanB with BG but she was an equal in the company…..Sorry. Got a head of myself.
Sorry Katie, you are delusional. All reports said they didn’t have a prenup and if she made her money on the Friends series then her costars would be listed too. She made the extra on the Pitt name. She didn’t run Plan B, if she was so damn good at running a production company we would be hearing about her flaming success today. Take off the rose colored glasses.

GREAT POST !!! always love your post !
How the hell does this turn into a Jolile post?
Only you loons here could do that.
This is the methodology right from the Forbes article.
Methodology: Net worth estimates were arrived at by tallying the total earnings, including salaries, record sales, tours, merchandising and royalties over the course of a career. When relevant, we included real estate holdings, shares and other assets. A conservative rate of return was applied, less taxes and agent fees. The list is limited to those female celebrities active in their professional lives.
This is BEORE giving to charity.
sounds like Jolie fans are little jealous that Jen can buy and sell their idol.
oh and Leminie to answer your question on to how many houses can these people live in at once why don’t you ask the Jolie-Pitts. They have 4…so far.
I think Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman were worth more than that.

Money is not everything. Sometimes humanity should prevail. Obviously, money is not making people happy otherwise we would not be assaulted with a pity party year after year. At the end of the day, money does not buy love or happiness. Jealousy is so over used by people who do not think outside the box or of a boarder world. Spread the wealth. It certainly won’t break you and may make you a better person.
boomstick,
Have Maniston buy her self a good boob. She can’t even do that let alone buy AJ.
You must be in another world like you Maniston
she also made alot of advertisements and has properties she rents out and has for charities you don’t need to go far if you all are so damn interested and think she sleeps and wakes up and does not give a damn what happens around her go on google type her name/charities supported and they will come up i am not begging you but i guess if you are going to acuse someone for not giving you should have a base for that Or don’t you and trust me when i say this she comes from a family were she knows what it feels like not to have anyone support yu and she also has someone close to her whom was adopted i am sure she gives a whole lot more that you all could imagine and also i and long before it became this popular.
Eh you all asked for it then you have all got it i really hate !hate when people talk without not knowing what they hell they are talking about and some of you sure don’t or you know but never want to say anything good about her which is so sad it really is and it shows how cautious you all are never to paint her in a good light even when you are lying ballantly . bye you all and keep on rambling it really is becoming kind of old don’t you think so just kidding i know i am just deluding myself that will never happen and i am sure one or all of you are going to come up with a whole lot more it is what you guys do best.
And by the way jen is not worth that much nearly that but not as much and she now has her own production company
to this is crazy,
You sound like a fan of Jen and do not be ashamed of it! Say it and we still listen to you. I am tired of some of the fans of Jen are starting their comments by saying that they are neither a fan of Jen nor Angelina. Whom are you fooling, for God’s sake? We are not stupid like you!
Angelina’s real fortune is her children with Brad Pitt and the love of her life who is Brad Pitt. They are healthy, happy and together. The money can never buy these valueable people of Angie’s life. On top of it, Angie is respected by serious, respected and important people on this world. So what have we been talking about?
I could care less about Jolie or Ansiton, but the growing reputation of this board as some sort of Jolie worshiping cult made me check the comments out of curiosity.
I knew you guys would be going nuts because Ansiton made the list and Jolie did not. You are quite predictable.
No money is not everything, but it’s what the article is about so deal with it.

You know, I hear people saying that Aniston gives money to charity, but she does it in private?? Well if it is in private, then how do YOU know that she gives this money to charity? It must not be so private after all… or it might be an “urban legend”
What is up with ye?? nothing to do with Angelina, she is not on the list.
with Friends/movies/Adverts & Plan B why wouldnt she be worth big money!
I think all ye so called Brad fans need to remember that he did marry Jen (didnt work out, everyone has moved on and all that) did ye not like him and support him when he was married to her???

Don’t be so shallow . Money is not everything. I wonder if Maniston was happy with that 110 million . living in her 15 million dollar mansion sharing her vast wealth with her 2 dogs.
Let’s analyse Aniston’s money.
1) She got 1M per episode for friends. It’s 12 episodes per year. Friends ran for 10 or 12 years. But this 1M per episode happened only in the last few seasons. Therefore, this accumulation of 110M is not from TV friends.
2) Next, look at her movies. Think how much she made. She is NOT big name star like Julia Roberts. Therefore this accumulation of 110M is not from movies making.
3) Does she come from a rich family. Her parents were divorced. She was doing odds and ends job before becoming famous. Therefore, she did not get this 110M from family.
4) You may say Aniston accumulated her wealth from movies and TV friends combined . But if you look at Courtney, who is very similar to Aniston. She also get the same pay as Aniston. Courtney also did movies. But Courtney’s name is not in this Forbes list.
Therefore, it is reasonable to conclude that Aniston obtained the bulk of her wealth through a divorce settlement.
.Oh, Aniston does NOT donate any money considering she is this RICH
Don’t be shallow LOL
Coming from Jolie cultists who constantly talk about her looks and Brad’s.
I already said money isn’t everything, but it’s what the article is about and you Jolie worshipers seem to have one track minds and can’t stick to the subject.
Do you guys realize what a joke this site is? That’s how I found out about it people talking about how scary crazy Jolie fans here are.
I don’t have anymore time for you pitiful obsessives or this site.
Just keep up your mantra
JOLIE IS GOOD
ANISTON IS EVIL
Well, i just wanted to say that, I believe in sharing your money, but I also believe that if you made the money you can do what you want with it. I also see so many of you saying how someone couldn’t make that much money. As an actor I know, it’s all about contracts. Jennifer Anniston (like the rest of the “Friends”) was making 1 mil an episode, and that was then, they still make money in residuals for show in syndication. I mean look at it this way, the (forgotten) Spice Girls still make an average of 2.5mil a year in residuals from thier splash into music as a group. So remember, it’s not about how often you see them or any of that it’s all about what pot their hand are in.
Madonna is worth so much cause of her record company for instance. Either way, YOU GO GIRLS!
All yCou have to do is look at Courtney Cox. She should be in the same boat as Aniston. Yet her name is NOT listed.
Dont tell me she is married and her money is shared with her husband. Look at that list again. Madonna is also married. Madonna is on the list.
Remember all the cast got 1M per episode of friends in the last few seasons. So Courtney got the same money on friends.
Courtney also made movies. Do a search.
Dont deny it. Jen Aniston got the bulk of her money through her divorce
Aaliyah,
Are you kidding me not everyone has moved on especially the Maniston fans, friends and Maniston her self.
Maniston is so NOT WORTH THE CASH OR BEING ON THIS LIST.
Aniston will be OFF the list if it’s not because of his marriage to Brad Pitt .
Use common sense, compare Courtney to Aniston. Dont lie.
Yes she rented out her house while she rented an expensive Malibu cottage from the Oracle exec, who owns most of the beach. She also does ads just like Cox and many other actresses who are NOT on this list.
If you don’t like this site why come here, it is obvious that once again her team is out to keep her “powerful” status in front of the media. This is the same rag that had her #1 powerhouse a few years ago, what happened? I wonder if this is really an accurate list as many people would not appreciate Forbes exposing their personal data. I imagine that like legs survey she willingly gives up her info.
NET WORTH WAS TALLIED BEFORE CHARITABLE DONATIONS!
JOLIE STILL WOULDN’T HAVE MADE THE LIST BEFORE DONATIONS!
TRY TO WRAP YOUR MINDS AROUND THAT PLEASE

go screw yourself
Wow, that was quite a comment Cloaca, I mean Cliniqua. :D
Does it seem strange or unfortunate to anyone else that the 20 richest women in the world are all in the entertainment industry? Granted, Oprah and Martha Stewart have diversified businesses, but nevertheless their business is still to sell their respective entertainment brands. Where are our investment bankers, CEOs, oil mavens? I’m not surprised…but I’m still disappointed.
If I was as rich as Maniston , I would slow down have kid and family while married to Brad in all those 4 1/2 yrs.
FOR GOD SAKES. WHY IS THIS TURNING INTO A BAMZS POST.
Enough already!!! If you want other people to donate then please state so but you do no have to being up Angelina Jolie’s name nor should you compare them to her.
Meg, this list isn’t the “20 Richest Women in the World,” this is the “Top 20 RIchest Women in Entertainment.”
What about Lisa Kudrow????
What about Courtney ?
Every cast member got the same 1M per episode during the LAST FEW seasons. They did NOT get this 1M at the very FIRST season. Use common sense.
It’s easier to justify Chin’s actions by dragging Angelina into the mix. Then they can bash the site as a fansite for Angelina and take the spotlight off the real problem, another fake ranking for Cheapo Chinnifer.
You see lylian, these are the persons who you admire and esteem, the persons with which share a passion, of the interests, the ability to make of the good and wanting well to the next one. The persons who foretell that in the life can herself be always changed and that to all it must give a possibility, here what are and like in reality they think the BAMZS and the Brangelina fans. Here who you are really, false and hypocritical persons.
Nicole Kidman is definitely more than that. I think she got 70+ million from TC after the divorce. and she was quite successful after the divorce.
all those people on the list, and people can only talk about angelina jolie, and she isnt even on the list. chinnifer sucks, good. she isnt on angelina’s level, so stop talking about the two already. i wish you people would get off angelina’s D*CK. please.
I believe that Jolie will never reveal how much she makes. It is obvious that she only talks about giving 2/3 of her salary to the needy. That is enough for her. She never had and never will reveal how much she makes. However, I am sure that without her charity, her bank account will be wayyy huge.
Stupid posts from irrational (and unintelligent) fans again. They just can’t leave AJ and BP out of any discussion on this JJ site. It’s not enough just to think about them every time they see something on the site. They have to put their pettiness into words and spread it in public. I’m not a JA’s fan, but apparently they are all jealous of her because you don’t see them bad mouth any other woman that had ever had relationship with BP, because none of them are publicized as much as JA is now.
It’d be interesting to see how these same fans would react, , if it were ever to happen that BP and AJ’s relationship became less a union than it is now. Wonder what they’d have to say about either BP or AJ.
Maniston has been lying and manipulating the media and YOU for
almosst two years. She needs to pay for it! She’s been GRASPING
for “sympathy” and attention - there are NO “secret” charities for
her…And, in the process, she’s done so much damage to Angelina
Jolie! What a rotten person! Maniston is GREEDY&STINGY, and all
the worst anyone can think of. WHY do some of the US REDNECKS
still like her?? Give me one real reason!
What did Brad&Angie really do?! Fell in love?! God! Everyone knows
by now that his CHILDLESS& FRUITLESS “EXPERIMENTAL MERGER”
was kaput anyways. I am glad that they just live their lives with
their children, loving each other and doing good.
celia,
Maniston will never have a child…….She is fruitless and will remain that way till she falls off this earth.

how Aniston obtained her wealth Says:
===================
Thank you for your explanation.
I find you all really funny this list is so not true how did janet jackson get there she just brought out an album and it did not do well, what do i know? all i know is all our arguments are baseless , and if it is true then good on them i say and if jen got any money from the divorce WHICH I KNOW SHE DIDN’T because remember it depends on how much your husband was worth when you got married and how much he made while you were still married(they never made any agreement and jen did not ask for anthing only her name she wanted back and trust me i rememeber that clearly and if she asked they would still be in the process today like alot of rich divorce settlements) and they were married for only four years she is entitled to virtually nothing i am studying law and i know what i am talking about ALL IN ALL CHARITY HAS TO COME FROM THE HEART AND WE DO NOT OWN THE MONEY AT LEAST THEY PAY THEIR TAXES and that in some way helps many people.
Maniston is just like her BFF the big O FRUITLESS. One day she’ll wake us looking like O and realized let me open a school somewhere and adopt all these kids.

Great well said. But why are you saying it here. This post have nothing to do with either Angelina nor for that matter Jennifer. Please STOP This is exactly the triangle everyone is trying to get out of!!!
this is crazy -
_______________
answer to your response
but you CANT name any charitable organization. Yes, she does advocate for Saint Jude Hospital. But what is it? wearing a T-shirt.? attend fund raising dinner??
Dont tell me this is private business. The fact is, your Jen does NOT donate.
If you said “Cox’s money is now bracketed with her husband, they took the same last name”, well, what about Lisa Kudrow???. She certainly did NOT take her husband’s last name. Kudrow also did movies.
No matter how you spin it, Aniston got the bulk of her wealth though her divorce.
Just use COMMON SENSE.
Think Courtney Cox, Think Lisa Kudrow. All got the same pay. All did movies. Why Courney and Lisa’s names not on the list.
from imdb.com

Seriusly do not wish such evil on someone you would regret it, fruitless that is really crossing the boundaries and yet you say you love people whom donate and help how can you that is evil it really is mean and bcos of that i pray jen wold have triplets and a wonderful family and it would happen God do i pray.
Angelina may not be on the list but she does more with less. Why can’t Mary-Kate Olsen give 1/3 of her earnings?
Also, it is o
That Sandra Bullock, Jennifer Aniston, and Gisele Bundchen can be some of the highest earning women shows how silly this list is.
Great actors like Helen Mirren, Judi Dench and Cate Blanchett should be earning more that a girl who played Rachel Green for like 7 years. Ridiculous!
Sandra Bullock has not had a hit since God knows when.
Don’t get me started on Angelina Jolie not being on the list then again Angelina is not in the business of making herself into a brand to make money like J-Lo
Err and I ‘m suppose to feel sorry for her? UMMM where is Courtney cox? Why is she always over looked?
This is such a good analysis by Cliniqua
you want to know where MANISTON GOT the BULK of money THAT PUT HER IN THE TOP, and why Courtney COX and KUDROW aren’t on this list WITH HER
….it’s because when she was WITH BRAD PITT, he was generous enough of a husband to include her in PLAN B, HIS PRODUCTION COMPANY…they produced, among other things - CHARLIE & THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY ….
Plan B, was NOT Maniston’s idea, nor her baby at any point in time - she was a partner IN NAME ONLY - BRAD pulled her in, because he was with her at the time, and initially it was thought that her lame TV SIT-COM HACK A S S could MAYBE get the FILM ROLES that she OTHERWISE COULD NOT HAVE GOTTEN ON HER OWN,
without BRAD PITT she’s just a blonder version of PATRICIA HEATON on Everybody Loves Raymond.)
So once again, and in all things she can thank BRAD PITT for why we have to be assaulted with her fug face and her big ol’ moneybags in the way of her bought covers courtesy of Huvane. It’s poetic she is wedged in there with the OLSEN TWINS and Judge Judy. Proof that money cannot buy you status in your field. HAHAHAHA!
ALL THAT MONEY Jen has and her MOM GOES To the INDIGENT CARE WARD in L.A.?!! What an evil b*tch! WHY DOESN’T *THAT* make the TABLOIDS in a BIG WAY…if Angelina did that, she’d be drummed out of America!
…..and PUH-LEEZE ,b>don’t tell me about this one, or that one donating and ‘keeping it quiet,’
first of all - as a celebrity, you have an OBLIGATION to make people AWARE, so that on top of your charitable giving, you MIGHT inspire others to either do the same, or at the very LEAST be aware of a situation (be it disease, famine, the impoverished or disadvantaged!) -
no CELEBRITY ’silently and quietly’ donates to issue of import. If they do it ‘quietly’ it’s only because they are CHEAP and they KNOW they could be doing MORE!
Besides, Maniston was asked POINT BLANK to HER FACE if she donated, and she responded, ‘I only concentrate on my tabloid career,’ half-serious IMO, and later said, ‘Charity is not ‘my thing.’ She’s just….AWFUL. UGH.
OK, more or less, it seems that Jen is very rich woman. I hope that she will also find happiness and peace in her life.
I don’t know how much she has but J-Lo isn’t supposed to be richer than Jen?
About these strange looking twins, last time I watched them, they were cute looking kids in Full House. Then what happened and they have become so rich? Anybody can tell me, please?
I think you guys are fighting over something we, as women, should be proud of. Look how far we have come. Could you have imagined 15 or 20 years ago, that females in the entertainment industry could be so powerful and wealthy!?! It’s amazing!
A lot of people are saying these people should be donating their money, my question is how do you know they don’t? I’ve seen adds where JA is the taking to a leukemia patient, and encouraging supportting their research hospital.
I also think we should stop all this cattiness between JA and AJ. They are both beautiful, and strong women. Let them be.
Cliniqua…..have you thought of getting counselling for your obsessions? Off your trolley aren’t you? Why don’t you go and get some evidence to back up your ‘belief’ that your heroin(e) gives loads of dosh to charity? JUST BECAUSE SOMEONE SAYS THEY DONATE X AMOUNT OF MONEY TO CHARITY, UNLESS IT’S REGISTERED IT CANNOT BE PROVED EITHER WAY….GEDDIT?
Sian! Cliniqua is so far up her own **** that she can’t help talking a load of ****.

I agree - on some level we shoul dbe proud however I find it incredibly hard to be happy that Sandra Bullock or Aniston makes more (an will always make more) than Helen Mirren, Meryl STREEP, or Judi Dench.
Meryl Streep the most extraordinary woman of her generation and she can’t earn more than a sitcom actress?
If we continue like this, women who are good at branding will be making all the money while the serious artists will be left out in the cold.
We need to focus on how to change things for the better. TV actors are overpaid.
It is a hard question, how do you put value on talent? Meryl may be talented but she may not be in films that bring in big bucks plus she is older.
However, I think if producers want Meryl, they should pay the Aniston big bucks to have her in their film.
A Yale educated, multi Oscar winner SHOULD NEVER make less than the star of Derailed.

We comment NOT because jolie is not on the list. We are merely analyzing how Jen got her wealth. We are commenting on why with all that money,
1) why she did NOT donate or donate “CHEAP”?
2) why her mother is in indignant care in LA?
3) why she continue to milk the divorce for public sympathy.
We comment not because of jolie not on the list.

On paper=Jolie “worth” more
Number One Before I Leave You Jerks - the bullk of the divorce money with Pitt was earned by her. She still gets a whopper of an income from friends.
You people on this blog are infamous losers. I was just reading about the Angie freaks on Just Jared a few minutes ago on two legitimate blogs.
Bye, losers.
At the time of the divorce Jennifer’s networth was $80 million, and Brad’s worth was $100 million. I read that on USA Today. So the amount of worth today makes sense.
She is a very rich girl alright.
I absolutely agree with the Cliniqua past.
The power of a donated sum of money is not just the money itself but the act of giving is inspiring to others. Especially if it is a celebrity donating - the effect of the donation will go far beyond the actual amount of money.
In today’s celebrity and idol obsessed world, whether we like it or not, people tend to look up to celebrities and use them as role models. People do what the celebrities do, wear what the celebrities wear and so on!
How many people had heard of the South Africa problems and Namibia if not for Oprah and Angelina and Brad.
And how many people would have donated to Oprah’s Angel network that helps people with AIDS, had Oprah made a secret private donation to a South African charity!
So you see - I have no problem with a celebrity getting publicity for an act like that if it means MORE exposure for the charities as well.
The only people that complain about celebrities getting publicity are those who dislike people more successfull than themselves!

In addition, I am plenty jealous that Jolie can’t have a stellar TV career instead of a film one.
I am too jealous that Jolie can’t be 38 and childless.
What is wrong with Angelina? geez…

She is rich, attractive, has a nice body, lives in sunny California, and was married to BRAD PITT. Also has a lot of friends and loyal fans. I guess it is good to be Jennifer Aniston.

Here is your REVISED post:
She is rich, lives in sunny California and will ride the fact that she married BRAD PITT from here to eternity. Also, she has Courtney Cox as her friend and Jenny Craig Midwestern housewife fans. I guess it’s boring and pathetic to be Jennifer Aniston.
PS: no charge for the revision. on me :)
Team Lara Croft Says…
I STILL say it must be good to be Jennifer Aniston.
Were you ever married to William Bradley Pitt?
I also want to add that Plan B is successful. But Aniston is a partner IN NAME only.
Plan B was also created to get movie roles for Aniston. Many actors/actress form a production company so that they can buy movie rights and star in the movie for themselves.
But the success of Plan B was NEVER due to Aniston. The SUCCESS of any business ventures is due to the management, the direction of the CEO etc.
If you remember Aniston in one of her interview, she said she always called her girlfriends even for the TINIEST thing. Jen always needs the whole support system around her. Now think, is she CEO material???? can she manage a company??
Therefore it is reasonable to conclude that Jen got the bulk of her wealth from Plan B, that by being married to a man who has the foresight of creating and managing successfully of a company.
so to Jennifer Aniston, I have this to say to you
1) You can live very well with this money. But do give back
2) stop this pity party
3) stop milking your divorce for public sympathy.
4) stop lying to the public
5) get rid of that “happy” if you havent done so( if what Ted C said is correct)
If Angie is not in this list, this is certainly because SHE GIVES 1/3 of her incomes to CHARITY!!
Love you Angie!!
86: Medi, the Olsen twins started making videos as soon as they quit Full House. They formed their own company with the money they made from the television series. Then they branched out in designing and selling clothes, accessories, records, more videos, toys, etc… They are a brand name name in themselves.
Their parents invested wisely and made them into a multi-million industry. Then the twins were able to control their company when they reached 21. Their company is still churning out money. Once, they were thought to be worth almost a billion.

On the “Methodology of the Forbes:
Net worth means if all of us were ranked from poorest to the richest, where we would stand. Considering the fact that “1 in 5 American households has zero net worth or actually owes more than it owns… and 1 in 3 minority households has zero net worth or is in debt (compared with the average of 1 in 5). Black families have, on average, only one-sixteenth the net assets of white families. For every dollar of net worth of a household headed by a man, households headed by a woman have less than 40 cents” (CSM, 2005 ), . According to the Survey of Consumer Finances (SCF)in 2004, the median household pre-tax “income” was $43,200 i.e., half of the Americans made more than this amount, half less. For “net worth” 95th percentile is $924,100, ie 5% of Americans are worth more than this amount. This is where wealth inequality in this society is.
Given where the averages and the distribution stand, I will leave it to your discretion to decide whether or not JA’s charity (information open to public access) propagated by some messages here, in proportion to her net worth is indeed worth applauding.
Nothing against JA in particular, I have not searched other names, as they were not in discussion. My only point is to highlight the wedge between personal wealth and public responsibility.

This is hilarious. You people need a life!!! Are any of you on the celeb list? Then you don’t have an f’in clue. I love how these posts turn into a “drag” Jennifer Aniston down because Angelina and Brad have dominated the media. Obviously there is a ploy there…………..it is called guilt. Hoe bag Angelina admitted she took Brad’s “best friend”, and I believe her name was “Jennifer Aniston”. Jennifer has not been the one running her mouth to the media about ****. You don’t have a clue what goes on behind close doors of the celebs, but try to pay attention to truth.

Pardon me while I deconstruct the contradiction:
“You don’t have a clue what goes on behind closed doors…..but pay attention to the truth”.
Is this truth not hidden behind closed doors too? Or is it their actions that are behind closed doors but the truth given what we decide it to be is not behind closed doors?
I am confused.
If all of it is behind closed doors then how did you extract a “truth”? hmm…..
Perhaps the greatest donation JA did was Brad’s clothes to charity.
She got rid of his clothes so fast but could’nt stop riding his coattails.
And thought this chick is brainless………
My God, you guys are crazy! 90% of the posts here are off topic! You could probably turn gossip about Hugh Heffner into an Angelina vs. Jennifer thread. :-o
Geez. Some of you guys seriously need to grow up.
Whatever. Good job to these women for making mega millions.
Much power to all of you. I’m just so proud these women. ^^
okay…typo. but I meant to say “I’m so proud of these women.”
With so much money you would think Aniston would have a better plastic Surgeon. I don’t know who talked her into getting that recent Chin implant. It was big enough before.
You know, Aniston can have all the money in the world, but she’ll still be a miserable, grasping and unfulfilled person. She’s needy, whiny and harbors grudges too much. She’s never been satisfied with anything she’s ever gotten.
She’ll end up as one of those rich grumpy old biddies that has only dogs and servants for company as they watch reruns of Friends in that old mansion by the sea.

bc, I was sad to report actually what I wrote. I would expect a net worth of $110 million, regardless its source, makes one think 1.5 billion living under $1/day today around the world, of people who have no other misfortune other than being born into the wrong side of the fence, of babies who die in staggering numbers today because of preventable illnesses. Consider the poverty you observe in this country: number of children who do not have access to health insurance, the efforts to increase minimum wage so people can earn a “decent” (not rich) paycheck or people who chose to live in cold houses during winter because a warm house costs too much, all the while reading that one person is sitting on $110 million in the bank.
The publicly available information on the amount and quality of JA’s donations is sad, just sad, especially considering the apologetic messages, “gives in private, does not tell anyone”, the ones that are deemed worthy of public information are just terrible.
I am not suggesting that they should be giving all, but given the resources (institutional, economic and social) available in this society, one would expect many of the echelons in the wealth distribution would at least show some interest, work for public awareness for the survival of the others. Unfortunately, JA does not cut to that “people concerned list”, in my opinion.

I dont believe all these posts are to “get” Aniston.
There are many analysis giving the facts.
Anyone reading the posts should be capable to make his/her decision and form his or her opinion.
That said, I do believe Jen Aniston SHOULD consider seriously of giving back to society.

3. Jen Aniston is one of Oprah’s biggest contributors every year (do the research)

5. I don’t give a **** if Angelina is God. I am from Africa, I am a lawyer who makes almost 5 million dollars every 6 months. But ask anyone who knows me and they don’t know where I donate or to whom I donate. It’s my contribution.
6. Instead of arguing about this…you go out and contribute to a cause.
curly -
Thank you for posting all those organizations. Now I get a good idea on what she donated.
I am shocked when I read that. Considering she is so wealthy, yet the amount of money she donated is dismal. If I were Jen, I would be ashamed. If I were Jen, I would not even let the world know how rich I am.
Another thing is, if Jen is a good friend of Oprah, why didnt she join in some of Oprah’s project? She does not need to do the planning. But she should at least give some money.

If no one close to knows where and how much you donate, as you put it ” ask anyone who knows me and they don’t know where I donate or to whom I donate.”, how can you assume we (people here faceless and nameless on the net) do not contribute, in your words “you go out and contribute to a cause”?
As for the gender equality, the list is about “women”, we have yet to compare it with the “men” making to the top, and compare women who could not make to the list with the men who could not do as well. Gender equality is not all about who makes to the top, it is also about who hits to the glass ceiling.

3) I went back to see your posts. You claimed to be a lawyer. Dont lawyers have good reasoning? Why is your logic so flawed?
4) Lisa Kudrow is also married. She did NOT change her name. So, if Courtney Cox changed her name, and not on the list, why wasnt Lisa Kudrow on the list???
5) Jen Aniston NEVER donate to Oprah’s charities. Do your research, her name is NOT there.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Yeah, every attorney I KNOW who makes 5 million half a year, is on Just Jared psoting about it.
The argument for me is BEYOND Angelina vs Aniston.
My HUGE issue is this: Meryl Streep should be making 100 million NOT the Olsens NOT Aniston.
There is a HUGE disparity between women who don’t play the game and the ones who are all about branding.
I like J-LO but the woman has no acting talent and no singing talent and has been in one flop after another.
Yet who makes the millions? She does.
I like that she is a successful Latina but why can’t Salma Hayek make her level of money or Sonia Braga or Penelope Cruz who is really talented? THEY ARE NOT BRANDS.
Same with Aniston and Bullock. Why doesn’t Hillary Swank, Judi Dench or Meryl Streep make their money? Why the women who are average and less talented?
Because men still reward women who are not threatening.
With the exception of Oprah, Nicole Kidman and Julia Roberts, so many women on this list are undeserving of their millions.
When Meryl Streep makes 100 million then we can talk.
I for one think that Oprah does not do enough, sorry but I think it was Forbes a while back that showed the percentage that these celebs gave and she gave 10 or 20%. That is NOT a lot out of a billion plus, all that does is reduce what she would have to pay in taxes.
Oprah should adopt because that is a far better legacy than some school thousands of miles away and visiting the students 2 or 3 times a year. Say what you will about Angelina and Madonna or Sharon Stone or Meg Ryan but they are putting their TIME into raising productive members of society, NOT just writing a check.
MS. O is also building a huge mega mansion in the Bahamas, taking up a whole damn island…who the hell is gonna live in that, her and Steadman and I guess Gayle? What a waste. She is a master manipulator publicizing every other show about what she is doing. Whom much is given, much is expected, so anything less than the minimum that she gives would be completely dreadful and appauling. Same goes for all the other people on this list. I’m just singling her out because she gets the most accolades and I think its undeserved.

All of you are absolutely ridiculous. I am not an Aniston fan nor do I like Jolie but you are all crazy. Angelina must not be here because she donates. WRONG!!! Net Worth is money that I have in the bank right now after my donations, after my taxes, it is my assets.
*********************
For someone who claims not to be a fan - you sure seem to know quite a lot about Maniston. Whatev!!
CLINIQUA, right on.
If celebs donate “privately” they are praised. Oooohh, they give their money quietly because they are so generous and modest. They don’t want anyone to know what a great person they truly are.
Yeah right, God forbid they should have to be burdened any further.
Their people are probably the ones making the donations on their behalf.
But if celebs want to bring awareness to the causes they support by making their donations public, they are criticized and demoralized?
WTF?????
I cannot, cannot believe that Chin is so stingy! I can’t believe it. I don’t like her. I think she’s a horrible person, and now, thanks to curly, here’s the proof. She gives nothing. She’s just hording all those millions she made on Friends and bad movies and giving nothing back but her ugly face, questionable presence and trinkets. I thought Oprah was her best friend. Why isn’t she following Oprah’s example?

I for one think that Oprah does not do enough, sorry but I think it was Forbes a while back that showed the percentage that these celebs gave and she gave 10 or 20%. That is NOT a lot out of a billion plus, all that does is reduce what she would have to pay in taxes.
Oprah should adopt because that is a far better legacy than some school thousands of miles away and visiting the students 2 or 3 times a year. Say what you will about Angelina and Madonna or Sharon Stone or Meg Ryan but they are putting their TIME into raising productive members of society, NOT just writing a check.
MS. O is also building a huge mega mansion in the Bahamas, taking up a whole damn island…who the hell is gonna live in that, her and Steadman and I guess Gayle? What a waste. She is a master manipulator publicizing every other show about what she is doing. Whom much is given, much is expected, so anything less than the minimum that she gives would be completely dreadful and appauling. Same goes for all the other people on this list. I’m just singling her out because she gets the most accolades and I think its undeserved.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
have to disagree with you on this.
Oprah gives millions to Moorehouse College.
Her millions to a school for girls in South Africa.
Her Angel Network, etc.
It is dangerous (big word) to suggest that a billionaire should give up their ocmfy lifestyle in order to be charitable.
The same argument has been used against the Jolie-Pitts. People found it insincere to go from refugees to a house in Malibu.
Part of what allows Angelina and the likes to do charity is because they ARE rich.
Bill Gates does not have to give up his billions to give.
It is discouraging to tell rich people that they have to give up what they work hard for in order to be charitable.
I work hard for my money but every month I give to charities but I still don’t give up my facials and massages. I can do both.
Oprah can own an island and still send abused, impoverished girls to school for free.
Part of the beauty of philanthropy and of the American Dream. We suceed and set an example for others to do the same.
Vocalizing your charity or involvements: If Martin Luther King resigned to just be a local preacher talking about civil rights as opposed to vocalizing it: where would we all be?
Same with Spielberg re: the Holocaust or Susan Sarandon re: peace etc.

Dear Aiko,
Let me recap the gist of my message “Gender equality is not all about who makes to the top, it is also about who hits to the glass ceiling”, since your message also seems to favor the notion that women have shown that gender inequality is not a barrier.
The following is hard data, about ordinary people, not about people whose net worth places them at the top 0.1% of wealth distribution in the US (kindly see my previous post on wealth distribution in the States).
From Current Population survey (http://www.bls.gov/bls/blswage.htm)
Median weekly earnings of full-time wage and salary workers by detailed occupation and sex
Arts, design, entertainment, sports, and media occupations : Median weekly earnings for men $885, median weekly earnings for women $735.
For 20 women “who have shown that gender inequality is not a barrier”, can you see how much women who, by your standards “could not show gender inequality is not a barrier”, are making?
All the best,
~curly
I am now convinced of the stupidity of the people who come here… this is how much they are worth… even if they did give it all to charity after they were paid (which is what makes them worth what they are worth) they would still be making this list… hence, Oprah is still worth 1,500 million… even if she gave 1,400 million away after she was paid!!! Dumbasses!
That list is missing SHANIA TWAIN! Maybe it’s cause she’s not in the public eye right now.
Shania is at least in the top 10. The Swiss business/financial media have her listed @ $400-$500 million and that’s without her husband Mutt Lange.
Forbes is just guessing at those numbers. They have no clue about investments, interest ect…
to the REAL TITA,
I can’t believe that these strangest looking twins are designing and people are buying. When you look at them, you just got scared!
Thank a lot. Now, I know how they become so rich.
Janet Jackson has made many a private donation and gives endless money, the reason you don’t know about it is because she unlike Jolie doesn’t make it a media event for good press.
In fact in court Aniston requested that that Pitt not be awarded spousal support. Check it out if you don’t believe it.

Good press or not, Jolie making an event about genocide in Darfur is good for Darfur.
Jolie making an event for international adoptions is good for int’l adoptions.
Jolie making giving birth in Namibia an event is good for Namibian tourism.
So is equally good of Steven Spielberg “making an event” of the survivors of the Holocaust. He could easily just give money but instead he talks about it every chance he gets and invites the press.
Thank God for press “events”.
It’s wrong !
I know Nicole Kidman worth about 110Millions dollars!

*****************
Yeah, Janet just chooses to pose half naked on the cover of every freakin’ magazine that will have her.
Same with Maniston. She just takes her top off for the cover shots.
These require no intelligence on their part. They would rather do this kind of media event than actually do some research on what they are “privately donating” to.
Angelina also does a lot of private donations that don’t get published. She has donatated to the building of clinics, schools, orphanages, sewing machines, etc. It is only since she and Brad have been together that the media has made a big deal of her donating because the spot light is on every move she makes now. She has always been very private about her donations. My gawd, she really doesn’t have a lot of money, by Hollywood standards. I admire her even more now.
I thought last year’s Forbes list said Angelina was worth about $80,000,000. What happened? Does anyone have access to last year’s list? How could she go from 80, to not being on the list this year?
JJ: please post a list with Angelina Jolie at the top so the fans can rest easy and start saying how the list is real and fair and how AJ is great.

We want him to post a pic and list of Angelina’s accomplishments instead:
Mother of 3
UN Ambassador for Refugees
1/3 donation of salary
Oscar
SAG
Golden Globe (George Wallace/Gia/Girl Interrupted)
2 million last year to Doctors Without Borders
AIDS work
and so on and so on and so on.
That is why she is great.
And while at it, JJ, post info on Meryl Streep’s accomplishments to (who is not on the list). The Queen of all things “acting”.
where the **** did jennifer aniston get 110 million, what the else has she done since friends?
LoL
Angelina giving away all her money certainly explains why she looks starved recently!
Who cares if Angelina is not one of the Top Greediest - I mean Richest women in America.
So long as she continues to support her charities and be a good mother to her children, SHE”LL ALWAYS BE ON THE TOP OF MY LIST!!!!!!!!

You don’t get it. my point was…why has this thread become a bashing thread? When I go to BAMZS thread, I have learned to scroll down and ignore trolls because of their hate and ignorance. So, when I saw this…I came to give props to these women. But instead, it has become a JA verus Jolie thread. And it wasn’t even a JA fan that started it. It was a BAMZS fan. I know because of the hate and trolls that we’ve been subjective to, we have become defensive, to a point where we don’t even wait for the trolls to have the first dib…we do it first. And for that…it’s kind of sad, but it’s what some of the BAMZS fan have become. I’ve even seen some of the BAMZS fans wishing that JA would drop dead. O.O Isn’t that how the trolls talk? so…why are we turning into one?
what the hell is judge judy doing on that list? and how are the olsen twins so rich?
Ryan Secrest aka Closet Case went off on Angleina on his morning show complaining she did not answer his questions at Golden Globes.

I love CLINIQUA as well, she is always “right on the money”.
This list works the same way People magazines Most Beautiful list works: It’s all about publicity I’m sure. Not about who is really the richest. How would Forbes know anyways? I doubt any of those stars would disclose their income let alone their whole fortune to them.
Great posts!! Loved reading them. Curly, you have your facts in place. Admire you for your impeccable posts.
Firstly, the main reason iam here on this site is because i admire jolie-pitts for all their humanitarian deeds. They are way richer than any of us here, but richness and wealth only makes sense when it is well spent. I’ve seen and heard of people who were millionAIRES and reduced to bankruptcy in afew years all because of their excessive spending habits. To spend money wisely is what finally matters no matter how rich you are. To strike a balance between donating and spending on self is a challenge on its own. If you worked hard to earn so much money then you deserve to spend some on yourself. And again to donate it takes a huge heart. But as one poster here mentioned, a lot of ladies who have made it to the top here are’nt very generous. Atleast it seems so. When a celebraty donates, it should make headlines because this is a huge inspiration to all their fans to start donating too.
i’m really not surprised by any of the names but by the fact that the majority are single and don’t have any children. i guess it’s true that marriage and kids suck up all your money.
keep it up, ladies. but don’t forget to give something back!
I forgot who said it, but this not about the x and Angie. If Angie is making less money and donating privately or out in the open, the fact that she isn’t on the list should say something positive about her. Forget the x. She earned her money. There was no divorce settlement. Leave her alone, smirk, smirk, smirk.:):):) Just be happy that Angie still finds it in heart to give out of what she has. Do quesstion who is giving, and who isn’t. Not everyone understands things the same way. Now please tell me how Angie went from being on the list last year with $80, to not being on the list at all this year. Some of you computer whiz kids can you find that info. I am challenged big time on a computer.

MISTAKE: The Olsen Twins are 20, not 22. (Doesn’t that make you feel a whole lot better?) I always remember how old they are because when I was little, I was fascinated with the fact that they’re the same age as my brother. Lame, I know :P.
Boo! They’re all facking overpaid, even the ones not on this list. I’m shocked that Aniston made the list, though I don’t hate her. She may not have the prettiest chin, but DAMN, ***** is loaded! As much as everyone hates on her here, she’s still filthy, stinking rich. Suck it!
And that settles it, Janet! With that much money, you can sit your expired ass down and start making babies with JD instead of releasing embarassments like “Call On Me” and “So Excited”. Don’t get all Mike on me, though.
Mary Kate and Ashley? God, I can’t write all the gruesome things I would to do their asses on here.
Britney…that settles it. This list is outdated. No way is she that rich now.
But remember guys, money doesn’t buy happiness….oh, who am I ******* kidding?

Aiko Says:
You may be right that I did not see your perspective on the point of bashing. But please try to see how the story you are celebrating by “more power to these women” is erroneous of and in itself. If we are to celebrate this story as it is, then other questions arise, with some answers not so pleasant.
1. Given the unfortunate structures in the society they are living in, do these “powerful” women are showing any kind of interest to these issues, at least in terms of public awareness? This is above and beyond the question of who is giving how much, it is also about who is shedding light to the problems. The total worth in this list is a drop in a vast ocean of the problems, but they have the power to turn light to issues that “they” care about. I would not write what I wrote if I did not believe that personal wealth brings also about public responsibility. Some wealthy people also seem to embrace the idea, a few unwillingly perhaps.
2. Assume that it is a personal choice to show interest to the problems in the society, so it is acceptable that some of the names (note that I am not singling out JA) in the list live the life of a plant in a pot; and still celebrate the money making power of these women. Even then, is it not reasonable to ask if they show any interest to the problems in the industry they are working on? Such as mentoring.
Giving away is not always about the beneficiaries because of pure altruism, it is sometimes about making sure that life after you will remember your existence at one point, so giving away may be selfish as well.
Try to see these points under the light that many women working in the industry are still being paid less than males. The way I see the list is very few names are actively engaged in doing some “public” good either because they care about their legacy or care about other people. So I can not just check their wealth and not ask, I wonder what they do to give back, especially if I am looking at numbers of the unfortunate under my finger tips every day.
3. And lastly, there was a recent piece in NYT about charities. The research has shown that “showing up in a gala, buying tickets, etc.” is the least effective way of reaching the target “poor/needy” population, mostly because in these event the organizations need to pay for so many overhead costs (rent of the place, etc). That may be the reason why wealthy people sincerely interested in philanthropy may be setting up their own foundation, less leak in the pipe.
Hopefully you also will get my point, sad but I see nothing to celebrate given the majority of performance regarding the points above of the women making to the list.
All the best,
~curly
eh…you know what? nvm…I’ll just learn to also scroll pass all the hate.
btw, some of you guys really do have good and valid post. I really enjoy reading them.
that goes the same to you too curly~
I do get it. It’s just that I hate all the bashing. I’ve had enough of them from JA’s fans and haters, so I was very surprised to see it here too. And when I saw that…it made me think that it was inviting more hate. hate attracts hate.
anyways…I enjoy your post.
Im pretty sure that list isnt very accurate just like the list that comes out with the paychecks each celeb makes on a movie.
Chinocchio = $110 million
Angie ♥ Brad ♥ Maddox ♥ Zahara ♥ Shiloh = PRICELESS
Janet Jackson has given more to aids charities than jolie has made in her entire career. Angelina fans need to get over it.

Hrmm. Anti-Aniston much on this page? Especially going crazy who certainly lives up to whatever the hell it’s name (him? her? Let’s just leave it at IT). As for Cliniqua. No one has an OBLIGATION to ANYTHING in this country be it celebrity or non-celebrity. This is not a fascist state here mein hitler! So since no one is asking you to shut your piehole on talking about things you clearly know nothing about, you can extend some tact when posting irrelevant bias based on your immature posing for position based on the lives of celebrities. I won’t be back to this page so you needn’t bother retaliating. It’ll be a waste of your breath.
Although, i should re-iterate the fact that J K Rowling does a lot of donations too, especially for the multiple sclerosis foundation since her mother died from it at a very young age. I keep track on this woman because iam a huge fan of HArry Potter. Wanted to let you ladies know that some of these women are genuinely into charities and stuff like that although majority of them seem pretty selfish and self-centered. JA, Janet, Cameron, Julia………… come on ladies, you can do better than that!! The money these ladies have in total can easily write off the debts of certain third world countries!!!
Money is a crazy thing to own. The more you have, the more you want it. That’s how the formula works. I wont be surprised if any of these ladies are financially insecure!!! The general perception is that having loads of money make you feel secure and safe but i think it does’nt. I think more the money the more you spend and hence you grow more insecure because if at all you lose all the money then your whole life collapses now that you have a different lifestyle altogether. Does anyone here understand what iam trying to say??? I think nuff of blabbering, i guess. Bottomline, i think money will not make a person feel more secure or safe, be it financially or emotionally.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
I agree. Janet’s proved time and time again that she can be a very generous as well as talented woman. Her brother (you know which one) has proved to be a very charitable person as well, as weird as he is now. I’m not gonna rip on Angelina because I think what both women are doing is good, but people need to stop acting as if Angelina’s the only person who does charity work. I like her, but that comment she made about America not caring enough for refugees several months ago has knocked her down a few posts in my book. She knows that if the US did try focus more on the issue, it would only come off of our tax money. I’m in a Taiwanese charity organization (YES, the UN isn’t the only) that probably no one here’s ever heard of, and we do many good things for the underpriveleged. I say, if people want to do good, God knows it, but I’m not supporting ripping more hard-earned money from people without their consent.
With that being said, these mofos are still waaaaay overpaid for their “contributions” to society.
Mary-Kate and Ashley aren’t one person.
You guys are so wrong. Even though Angie gives 1/3 of her income away she is still a multimillionaire. Someone on here said she will never be rich because of her charity. She probably has at least 50 million and Brad has 100 million. That is rich by any standards. They own at least 4 multi-million estates around the world. I think it is great they give to charity and support human rights but they are not exactly cutting coupons and counting their pennies.
About Jen, she has supported St. Jude’s for over 10 years. She donates her time and money to them every year. Marlo Thomas has mentioned what a good friend Jen has been to St. Jude’s. Also there were 22 episodes of Friends per season not 12 like someone else stated. She made at least 50 million her last two years of Friends. Also, she got paid pretty well throughout the shows run which was on for 10 years. While CC and Lisa also got movies and endorsement deals, Jen always got considerably more. She was always ranked as America’s favorite “friend.” The last Forbes ranking for highest paid actresses has her in the top 10 at #8, whereas CC and Lisa didn’t make the list.
Someone metioned that Jen’s mother has money problems. Jen and her mother don’t speak to each other because Jen’s mother wrote a tell-all-book about Jen when Friends became a hit. They are currently estranged. Angie also doesn’t speak to her father because he stated in the press that he feared for her mental stability. The are also currently estranged. Both Jen and Angie feel like they have been very hurt by their respective parents and it is their business if they want to cut off ties.
Lastly before you guys say that either Jen or Angie are ugly please post your picture so we can judge you ,as this is only fair. Also when you say that Jen doesn’t donate enough or Angie only donates for PR please state what percentage of your income you donate to charity per year. If you don’t have a lot of money then please let us know what charities you voluteer for. Thanks
The top 3 woman rule…self made!
Crazy people talkin about AJ and JA
GET ON YOUR PRECIOUS AJ THREAD
and F*CK OFF!
We are NOT arguing why Angie is not on the list. We are stating the fact that Aniston, with that much money does NOT give back enough.
In other words, she is CHEAP !!!!
Curly,
Another great post. You are one of the reasons why this thread keeps getting the enormous number of hits it gets. You are probably one of very few women whom i’ve met across the internet who are highly mature and intelligent individuals. Rationale thinking and reasoning are the most interesting traits i admire in an individual and you’ve got all my admiration for the same. Keep posting and keep feeding my hunger for intelligent posts. Thank you!
>>>The argument for me is BEYOND Angelina vs Aniston.
My HUGE issue is this: Meryl Streep should be making 100 million NOT the Olsens NOT Aniston.
There is a HUGE disparity between women who don’t play the game and the ones who are all about branding.
I like J-LO but the woman has no acting talent and no singing talent and has been in one flop after another.
Yet who makes the millions? She does.
I like that she is a successful Latina but why can’t Salma Hayek make her level of money or Sonia Braga or Penelope Cruz who is really talented? THEY ARE NOT BRANDS.
Same with Aniston and Bullock. Why doesn’t Hillary Swank, Judi Dench or Meryl Streep make their money? Why the women who are average and less talented?
Because men still reward women who are not threatening.
With the exception of Oprah, Nicole Kidman and Julia Roberts, so many women on this list are undeserving of their millions.
When Meryl Streep makes 100 million then we can talk.

Please reconsider your remark on UN as a charity. I assume this is not your intention but your message reads as such. Coming from a person working in an NGO, this is not excusable oversight.
As for “ripping more hard-earned money from people without their consent”, see the following from CDG, the comparisons of the developed countries’ aid performance in total and per capita. I do not suspect the Portuguese, with less per capita income than in the US, are considering themselves as “ripped off”.

well said
#175 Jolie4ever say: BEAUTIFUL…very well said.
Let’s analyse Aniston’s money.
1) She got 1M per episode for friends. It’s 12 episodes per year. Friends ran for 10 or 12 years. But this 1M per episode happened only in the last FEW seasons.. She did NOT get 1M per episode in the 1st few seasons. Therefore, this accumulation of 110M is not from TV friends.
2) Next, look at her movies. Think how much she made. She is NOT big name star like Julia Roberts. Therefore this accumulation of 110M is not from movies making.
3) Does she come from a rich family. Her parents were divorced. She was doing odds and ends job before becoming famous. Therefore, she did not get this 110M from family.
4) You may say Aniston accumulated her wealth from movies and TV friends combined . But if you look at Courtney Cox , who is very similar to Aniston. She also get the same pay as Aniston. Courtney also did movies. But Courtney’s name is not in this Forbes list.
5) Let’s look at Plan B from which Aniston was a partner.
Plan B is successful. But Aniston is a partner IN NAME only.
Plan B was also created to get movie roles for Aniston. Many actors/actress form a production company so that they can buy movie rights and star in the movie for themselves.
But the success of Plan B was NEVER due to Aniston. The SUCCESS of any business ventures is due to the management, the direction of the CEO etc.
If you remember Aniston in one of her interviews, she said she always called her girlfriends even for the TINIEST thing. Jen always needs the whole support system around her. She also held pity parties. Now think, is she CEO material???? can she manage a company??
Therefore it is reasonable to conclude that Jen got the bulk of her wealth from Plan B, that by being MARRIED to a man who has the foresight of creating and managing successfully of a company.
I ADMIT I USUALLY COME HERE PURELY FOR ENTERTAINMENT VALUE I FIND THE PURE, NAKED INSANITY ON DISPLAY HERE ENTERTAINING. BUT THIS PARTICULAR POST IS JUST FLAT OUT SAD. SERIOUSLY TO RESENT SOMEONE (JENNIFER ANISTON) PURELY BECAUSE SHE LUCKED INTO MAKING MORE MONEY THAT THE ACTRESS YOU WORSHIP IS JUST UNREAL. SOME OF THESE POSTS ARE PRACTICALLY DRIPPING WITH HATRED FOR ANISTON FOR DARING TO BE WEALTHIER THAN JOLIE, IT’S NUTS, IT’S SAD AND IT’S BIZARRE.
OH AND CLINIQUA YOU FIND “THESE PEOPLE” (READ ANYONE WHO DOESN’T BLINDLY WORSHIP BRANGELINA AND DARES TO SAY IT) “DISTURBING”? LOL! “DISTURBING”? YOU WANNA SEE DISTURBED? LOOK IN THE MIRROR.
Jen is this Rich
Why we havent heard of her DONATING???
I know I have heard more than once that JK Rowling is the only writer who made it into the billions. Therefore I find this list somewhat questionable. Then again, I don’t know how these lists are compiled. Frankly, I feel most entertainers along with athletes are grossly overpaid while real heroes go without notice. There are so many people, who, by the very nature of their work, make the world a better place everyday for all people….yet the big money goes to someone who can dribble a basketball, sing a song or recite lines someone else wrote. Of course, this isn’t about that is it? So…yeehaw for all these women.
This is such a good analysis by Cliniqua
you want to know where MANISTON GOT the BULK of money THAT PUT HER IN THE TOP, and why Courtney COX and KUDROW aren’t on this list WITH HER
….it’s because when she was WITH BRAD PITT, he was generous enough of a husband to include her in PLAN B, HIS PRODUCTION COMPANY…they produced, among other things - CHARLIE & THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY ….
Plan B, was NOT Maniston’s idea, nor her baby at any point in time - she was a partner IN NAME ONLY - BRAD pulled her in, because he was with her at the time, and initially it was thought that her lame TV SIT-COM HACK A S S could MAYBE get the FILM ROLES that she OTHERWISE COULD NOT HAVE GOTTEN ON HER OWN,
without BRAD PITT she’s just a blonder version of PATRICIA HEATON on Everybody Loves Raymond.)
So once again, and in all things she can thank BRAD PITT for why we have to be assaulted with her fug face and her big ol’ moneybags in the way of her bought covers courtesy of Huvane. It’s poetic she is wedged in there with the OLSEN TWINS and Judge Judy. Proof that money cannot buy you status in your field. HAHAHAHA!
ALL THAT MONEY Jen has and her MOM GOES To the INDIGENT CARE WARD in L.A.?!! What an evil b*tch! WHY DOESN’T *THAT* make the TABLOIDS in a BIG WAY…if Angelina did that, she’d be drummed out of America!
…..and PUH-LEEZE don’t tell me about this one, or that one donating and ‘keeping it quiet,’
first of all - as a celebrity, you have an OBLIGATION to make people AWARE, so that on top of your charitable giving, you MIGHT inspire others to either do the same, or at the very LEAST be aware of a situation (be it disease, famine, the impoverished or disadvantaged!) -
no CELEBRITY ’silently and quietly’ donates to issue of import. If they do it ‘quietly’ it’s only because they are CHEAP and they KNOW they could be doing MORE!
Besides, Maniston was asked POINT BLANK to HER FACE if she donated, and she responded, ‘I only concentrate on my tabloid career,’ half-serious IMO, and later said, ‘Charity is not ‘my thing.’ She’s just….AWFUL. UGH.
1) We are not here to bash Aniston.
2) We are saying Jen was lucky to be married to Brad who INCLUDED HER in Plan B. Plan B is successful because Brad is smart to make it successful. Jen was NEVER a “producer” material.
3) I firmly believe that Plan B is where Aniston got the bulk of her wealth. Good for her for being lucky.
4)Let me remind you that each cast member got 1M per episode on the last few seasons of friends. You can find this on the internet. 12 episodes per year. All you have to do is compare that to Lisa Kudrow and Courtney who also do movies. Why wasnt Kudrow nor Courtney’s names there? Therefore, it is reasonalbe to conclude that Jen did NOTget the bulk of money from movies and friends. This is what I want to say. She got the bulk of her money from Plan B
5) What bothers me is that Jen did NOT give back enough. Just wearing a Saint John Children T shirt or hosting dinner is NOT enough. If she is so popular as some of you said, why not attach her name to some causes.
5) Considering the amount of wealth she has , she is STINGY.
angelina blah blah blah aniston blah blah blah angelina blah blah blah aniston pitt blah
Just use COMMON SENSE.
Think Courtney Cox, Think Lisa Kudrow. All got the same pay. All did movies. Why Courney and Lisa’s names not on the list.
_______________
well said , i like this common sense idea.
thank you for some of the analysis of how she got her money.
This girl is extremely lucky.
But to me the most important thing is to have a meaningful existence. Life is not just tanning, shopping, hair.
so, I hope with all these posts, Jen will come to her senses to give MORE

This has nothing to do with Angelina Jolie. I read every single posts.
People are pointing out how Aniston got her money. Nothing’s wrong with analysing it.
I believe other celebrities are NOT followed as much. Jennifer was very much in the news. Therefore people are posting based on what they know about her. Again, stating the facts
These people are NOT upset that Jolie is not on the list.
These people are also complaining that Jen DID not give enough in proportion to her wealth since they know how much she has.
~ IMO ~
I don’t believe in throwing stones …. don’t care who makes the
most cash …. i pass the i hate jen post, just like i do the haters
comments …. unlike the haters, people that i don’t care for don’t interest
me and i don’t want to know anything about them.
I lurke here because ….. here i can get and enjoy info, about this family
that i have a jones for ….. in other words if it’s not on the up stroke
about the BAMZS …..I’m not down.
By the by …. IMO …Angie is probably glad her name is not on this
list, do you really think she cares? i give her too much credit
to be into this kind of BS ….. living a full,happy and productive life
does not mean being on the Forbes list…. it helps but … well you know..
Come to think about it Angie’s the riches women i know…LOL
how did Gisele Bundchen get so rich! Richer than kate moss? :shock:
I am a CPA and I know what networth is. Networth is Total assets minus Total Liabilities. Assets include property, cash, investments in stocks & mutual fundsand anything that will produce income etc. Liabilities are the debts. If you bought a house for $2M and had a mortgage on that house for $1.5M your networth on the house is $500T ($2M-$1.5M). Angie, though she has cash she probably does not own a lot of real properties like house, land, etc. Assets appreciate(increase) in value as time passes. It may also depreciate in value depending on the market. She might have invested in some blue chips like stocks in big companies that is publicly traded like Microsoft, Yahoo, Coca-Cola etc.
Who cares where Maniston Got her money. If she got it from Pitt then good for her.
She is entitled to it after angelina ***** had an affair with Pitt.

If Brad had an affair. she’ll be asking more than that . With her richness and connection in HW , she can hire the best lawyer in town running after Brad asset. period!!!
Britney is only worth about 35 million according to published recent reports. She lost most of it in frivilous lawsuits. She kept trying to sue everyone and their grandma and lost every time. I don’t think they are taking into account that when she gets paid 1 million for a deal - 15% comes off the top for her manager and then however much for taxes, etc. I don’t think they are. Britney is supposed to only be worth about 35 million at this time. She sold all her other properties. The one in Miami and New York. She only has LA - which I think she gave to her mom but might legally still be hers and the new one in CA which is seriously downsized from the previous one. She went from a 12 million mansion to a 4.5 million mansion in a worse neighborhood. WHY? If she is worth 100 million? She didn’t even look at houses over 6 million. Exactly what she got for selling the house according to the pre-nup. Half. After broker fees since it sold for a little over 14. I think Brit Brit is going broke. Or just doesn’t have as much money as she is used to. To fit the style she is accustomed to.

She is rich, attractive, has a nice body, lives in sunny California, and was married to BRAD PITT. Also has a lot of friends and loyal fans. I guess it is good to be Jennifer Aniston.
+++++++++++++=
Yes , we all knew that. Then what was this never ending pity-party orchestrated by Maniston and cronies. . She’s a multimillionaire, with or without husband, she’ s still better-off than anyone of us. I could only said, She’s too greedy never satisfied with that enormous wealth.
SystemOn-
The reason for the demise of Aniston’s marriage is that :
Aniston has no interest in starting a family. Aniston was too busy in chasing fame and wanting to start a movie career. I can post the timeline if you want. Just think in 2003, Brad was filming Troy. Your idol Aniston was busy taping friends while simultaneously filming Along came polly. They spent many months apart. At the back of my mind, I have always wondered if this is their trial separation.
Do you want to go into this? because I can do that in another post.
THEY (BRAD, ANGELINA AND JENNIFER) ARE ALL RICH!!!!!!!
Brad and Angelina just purchased a house for 3.5 million with CASH. No mortgage.
Brad just finished renovating his multi million dollar home in the Hollywood Hills plus he has a house in Malibu, Santa Barbara , he owns property in Missouri and reportedly owns a home on the east coast. Brad has a share in an architecture business.
Jennifer is buying a 6 million dollar home plus she has another home in CA. Probably has investments.
As Angelina said she makes “stupid” money. She owns a home in England although rumor has it she sold it. Probably has investments.
THEY (BRAD, ANGELINA AND JENNIFER) ARE ALL RICH!!!!!!!
STOP MAKING THIS A BRAD/ANGELINA VS JENNIFER THREAD. IT SO SILLY. BECAUSE THEY ARE ALL RICH!!!!!!

Cliniqua -
Thank you so much for pointing out the significance of Plan B and how Jen was lucky that Brad included her in Plan B.
I also want to thank you and another poster who said Jen was NOT behind the success of Plan B, because Jen is NOT producer or CEO material. It was Brad. I always know Brad is the smart one.
Anyway , your post is always right on target

Jennifer just bought a Beverly Hill home for 13M.
I agree, Brad, Angie and Jen are all rich.
I believe people wanted to analyse “how Jen got her money”.
They are saying it’s NOT from friends, movies, or royalties from friends.
Cliniqua pointed out that Jen got her wealth because Brad was kind enough to include her in Plan B, and that the success of Plan B is not due to her but it’s to Brad’s credit. i totally agree with that. Believe me, I dont blindly agree with anyone. The reason has to be valid before I will concur.
I felt that there is nothing wrong with people doing an analysis. Doing an analysis doent mean we bash her.
I also believe people are saying Jen did NOT give back compare to the wealth she has.
I personally am NOT upset when Angie doesnt make the list. In fact, I respect Forbes list .
why was Maniston targeted among the top 20 list for not giving back ? Aside from her bluntly stating that charity was not her things in VF interview last year. Her pathetic fans were the reasons for this backlash. these were the fans who constantly sarcastically criticizing Angie charities work and donations .
whatever you say, she’s got the money and you dont! poor you. maybe, she has to donate some of it to you so you can stop hating her…i think jolie gives out charity to each one of you so you can write vile things about jennifer, what an insecure b*tch jolie is, bwahahaha.

It’s good to read the analysis. Knowing how to analyse is a good skill in life. After you read them, form your opinion. This is what real life is.
It’s good to develop this trait which you can apply in your daily life and work.
Cliniqua plus many posters write with good supported reasoning.
so READ the analysis on how Aniston got the bulk of her wealth
Without taking any sides, I just want to say that I am proud of ALL the women on the list. Remember the time in our history when women COULD NOT WORK jobs like these? I am a woman and I may submit a difference of opinion on various subjects, but the big picture is THESE ARE SUCCESSFUL WOMEN. They are doing it THEIR WAY whatever that means to them! Let’s take a minute to chill out and congratulate ALL of them. I am sure-in fact I am positive that no matter who they are or what they believe, what they said, or what they did, THEY ALL SHOWED UP FOR WORK AND DID THE BEST JOB THEY COULD DO. I have been communicating for 2 years with some of you (mostly the BAMZS) I haven’t met any of you, but I want to say that I am proud to know that in this world there are highly talented, keely intelligent women who are keeping it together. Some of you posting here are more valuable to our country than some of the women on that list. Honestly, let’s keep it real! Cliniqua, I would love to see you on the View! You could do it!
Some of the Jen fans kept saying “Jen does donate quietly”. But this argument doesnt hold, if you look at post #126 , it lists all the organizations she supported and what Jen gave. This is public information.
All I can see is some autographed clothing, host dinner etc.
If Jen is really worth that much , i do believe she has 110M , then she can at least START giving back and helping the poor.
Well, Jen, hosting dinner and wearing a T shirt for Sait Jude Children is NOT enough, you should do more.
When much is given, much is expected
Congrats to all the ladies on this list.I hardly ever come to this site because all I hear is about the Jen Haters and the B/A lovers. Now I know that that is so true. It is so funny to me that you guys criticize Jennifer for being on this list.But something tells me that if Angelina was here you’d think that was terrific.Jennifer was worth about 80 million before the divorce and Brad was about 100 million.I remember at the time of the divorce the lawyers said it would be easy to carry out because each of them had always kept their money seperate.So saying she got it off Brad is ridiculous. Also she asked for no spousal support-that should tell you something there. The lady has always been loaded -got the money from Friends.Jennifer contributes to charities.It amazes me that you don’t rip Julia and some of the others too. What have they done for charities?Most stars never publicize their charitable contributions.To each his own. Amazes me that you guys can’t accept these are very smart business women. Congrats!!!

I know I have heard more than once that JK Rowling is the only writer who made it into the billions. Therefore I find this list somewhat questionable. Then again, I don’t know how these lists are compiled. Frankly, I feel most entertainers along with athletes are grossly overpaid while real heroes go without notice. There are so many people, who, by the very nature of their work, make the world a better place everyday for all people….yet the big money goes to someone who can dribble a basketball, sing a song or recite lines someone else wrote. Of course, this isn’t about that is it? So…yeehaw for all these women.
—————————————————————————–
ITA with you. People like Albert Einstein, Marie Pierre, and their likes whom we owe so much, did not make any money at all. They were all geniuses interested only in their contribution to the world rather than making money. Are’nt these people wonderful? These people are gift to mankind. And i woul’dnt say that about a lot of these women who made it through hook or crook and most of them by crook, iam sure. Seriously, why are people so crazy about Britney?? It’s the American population who’s responsible for making all these useless people rich. We should’nt be blaming only them. We must take up the blame as well.
Why should any of them give their money to charity, it’s their money…and how do we know they don’t already…J.K.Rowling deserves every penny.
As a girl/woman I am all but proud of Maniston, Britney, Hilton and
the likes. OF COURSE this is NOT about making this list. It does not
say all of these women are good people! It is b/c of who Maniston
IS that she disgusts me. I think EVERYONE knows why.
Besides, she made money acting in a cheap, pedestrian TV-show,
AND by SHAMEFULLY milking her divorce. There is nothing positive
about her. She fed those rednecks hate, and should not be surprised
people hate her now.
As a woman, I am ASHAMED of her.
Iam all for making money by showing off your talents. There are highly talented people who deserve whatever they make. JK Rowling is definitely one of them. But what i dont understand is people like Britney, JA, Cameron, and their likes making effortless money because dumb people buy in to their dumb acting, singing or whatever they’re trying to do. But come to think of it, as Blogelina mentioned, many of these artistes are overrated and overpaid. I guess that’s how entertainment industry works. You know to sing a little and then if you can do some body exposure and pose topless and stuff like that, then you are a winner. How easy!!! No wonder not all beautiful women in the world can make it as artists or make it rich because most of them care for dignity and respect rather than making money. Yeah, i think i figured it out, i guess, why people like Britney and her likes are rich and this trend wont stop here as long as people buy into their cheap antics! SIGH!!!!
Hater, haters be calm. Down girls, down.
Jennifer is WOW rich. Good for her. Really if she doesn’t want to give to charity who cares. So she is selfish, who cares. Really it’s her money and she can do with it what she likes. Who even cares where she got it from. She’s rich good for her. Surprised you guys a little bit I know that she was this wealthy and made you angry because you really want Jennifer to pay for what she has done.
You want her to be poor, lonely, sad. Keep waiting posters. Poor CLINQUIA years from now at her computer trying to explain to people where Jennifer got her money. Keep going don’t give up the cause. Make everyone hate Jennifer, bring her to her knees, make her say sorry.
You guys are nuts. This hate thing is just weird. You guys really need to get a life. Do you have any friends at all except the other posters on this borad?

1) Not asking for spousal support is NOT an argument on how she got her wealth. In California, you are NOT awarded spousal support if you are working and can maintain the pre-divorce life style. You are ONLY awarded spousal support if your life style DROPS post divorce. For example, K-Fed (Britney’s husband) will be awarded spousal support. In Aniston’s case, even if she has 50M or 30M, and because she is working, the divorce court will NOT award her spousal support.
2) Many posters are giving the anatomy of how Jen got the bulk of her wealth. It has nothing to do with Jolie. Many people point this out. Why are Jen fans so upset? There is nothing to hide.
3) It was explained very clearly on post #190, namely being married to Brad Pitt who included her as partner in Plan B and that Brad had the ability to make the company profitable. This is the reason for the bulk of her wealth. Please read slowly post #190 slowly.
4) Many were saying Jen did NOT give enough in proportion to her wealth. Jen fans argued that “Jen did it quietly”. One poster stated the fact and give the website to document what she has given. So far, all we see is some autographed clothing, or hosting dinner. The website was on post #126
5) To me, this is her money. she can do whatever she wants. But giving back would be nice.
6) You have NO proof that Jen is worth 80M pre-divorce. So dont lie. I follow this celebrity. If assuming this figure is correct, then this is also due to Plan B. Remember, she was a partner of Plan B. Again, you only give Jen credits on friends and movies. Why again, you dont mention Plan B in your post????
7) You see many writings about Jen because she is widely followed. Because people dont know about others, therefore, they have nothing to write.
8) Why are the Jen fans so defensive about Jen. Are you telling me she DID NOT own Plan B? If Jen got the bulk of her money from Plan B, is this so bad?. Even though she did NOT contribute to the success, so what? She was married to the one who did the work, you should be proud of her for being so lucky.
9) Someone wrote that the success of Plan B is due to Brad. Even with that,so what? . Why are Jen fans erasing Plan B from her life?
10) Finally, I hope Jen can START giving back MORE. I am sure when Huvanne read all these posts, he will know how to advise her.
Oh my God you guys are delusional!!!And when Brad and Angelina’s Cindy reads these post she will act accordingly.She’ll run to People mag with an exclusive..
I think that is almost more important to manage all that money than to make it. I mean, their life style is that way that they are spending sooo much money.
If Jen had all the time Brad as a mayor spender that could have saved her money comparing to other “Friends”.
Eg thing is where to invest and how to keep all that money.
I believe there are many other that have made more money in Entertainment, but they simply have spent it.
Like normal people. Some know how to save and manage money other don’t.
Sue - (#222)
calm down. Cliniqua wrote a very good post. I know she’s not a fan of Jen. But that doesnt mean she is not right.
you stop picking on her. she is very vocal. I see nothing wrong with that.
By the way, are you getting a raise from Aniston camp for posting???? You still havent told me how much you get from Huvanne.
Oh, one thing, you keep changing your names. But your writing style gave me lots of clue.
Sue -
one more thing, NO ONE said Jen got the money illegally . So dont be ashamed of Jen’s wealth.
You Jen fans should be proud of this 110M regardless of how she got it.
Jennifer made her money on her own. If she chooses to donate some, that’s her private business. She didn’t make money from Brad, and unlike Brad’s mistress, she obviously doesn’t make public announcements about her donations. Deal with it loons. Jen has earned more than your idol and what she does with it is her own business. I know, the truth hurts.
This list has a few errors: Madonna’s net worth more towards $500+ million range, Mariah is more accurately around the $150million point, Janet Jackson is around $75million, Jennifer Aniston is around $40million(c’mon now does Forbes even pity her…that figure is a joke), Britney Spears around $40million, Nicole Kidman around $90million+…..I do not feel like giving the histronics on how I know but trust me Forbes as usual has got it wrong for a few of the ladies on the list.
Oh, another thing, just because they gave an anatomy of how Jen got her money DOESNT mean these are haters.
Dont jump to conclusion and label everyone as haters. Otherwise, I have to say you Jen fans must have some “guilt” trip.
That Anuston is a joke. Stop your propaganda b*tch!
Whoever made up that list must have been drunk, because Aniston can’t be that rich, must have been a typo.
Aniston’s net worth is too inflated! She only has her house in hollywood hills, maybe US$ 6m, and her new house in beverly hills US$ 15m acording to reports, but actually she only paid US$ 10m for it, as her assets, so that only less than US$ 20m in assets. I dont think she has US$ 80-90 million cash. She only made US$ 8 m for TBU, another US$ 10m all in all for her 3 other movies, thats like US18m, gross, deduct the tax and expenses to her agent, pr, etc., a little over half or even less of that goes to her. She is probably making US$ 5-10 m in Friends syndication gross, and only half goes to her, for 2005-2006.
They only made US$ 1 m per episode for only one year, prior to that US$ 750k and US$ 500k for 2 years year and I think US$ 250k and much less for the rest of 7 years. Only half of that or less goes to them after taxes and expenses. I know she had 2- 3 other movies before, but she only got like US$ 2-3 m per movie, gross. What about her expenses during the year, clothes, paying her people, travels, etc.
So there is no way she could have US$ 110 m in net worth, even her commercials are like around US$ 1 m only.
Even Ophah is not worth that much, she is way too extravagant, but i believe JK rowling is worth more than that.
There are some very jealous people on this thread……………
And why is Angelina not there?
Jolie is worth more than US$ 75-80m, but she is probably not listed because she donates 1/3 of her income to charity and is not easily accounted for.
Consider the following income she had:
Endorsement -St John and Sheseido US$ 15,000,000 plus
Salary for recent movies:
AMH US$ 5,000,000 plus backend
Beauwolf US$ 15,000,000
Panda King US$ 10,000,000
Alexander (2004) US$ 10,000,000
The Good Shepherd (2006) $10,000,000
Mr. & Mrs. Smith (2005) $10,000,000 plus US$ 10,000,000 back-end
Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life (2003) $12,000,000
Lara Croft: Tomb Raider (2001) $7,000,000
Forbes make estimates only and they are well known to make mistakes. Remember last year, when they only copied the previous year’s list and make it as the new list without updating it, that is for the list of richest celebrities, where Tom C was no 1. It was reported that the mistake was made and it was too late to pull it out as they had already publsihed _. lol
Nicole K is worth more than Aniston, she got US$ 60m in properties from already and she has made so many movies after her divorce. SAndra K is also worth more than that, she is the producer of Ms Congenilaity movies, Two weeks notice, etc.
And what about Britney, i dont think she is worth US$ 100m, she even has to sell her malibu house to buy a new house in Hollywood. And she had to borrow like US$5m from bank to finance the renovation of her malibu house. Aniston’s net worth is definitely inflated, unless she got large settlement from Brad on Plan B, which I doubt it.

Inaccurate Listing Says:
___________________
Whether Forbes is accurate or not, Aniston’s net worth should be closer to 110M. Forbes is a reputable magazine. They may be off. But NO WAY are they way off.
Therefore I believe Aniston is worth closer to 110M.
Brad had to pay off Jennifer Aniston to emerge as sole owner of Plan B. Think about it, if Aniston does not donate much, do you think she will give up Plan B without compensation? Plan B is very successful due to Brad’s ability. The company is worth a lot.
Remember Jen hired professional lawyer and CPA to advise her. These lawyers will be all thinking for her well being. They are not giving up for FREE. Just use common sense.
As to Britney, she sold the house because it’s a divorce. She had to sell to divide the proceeds with K Fed. She needed to borrow money to finance her remodelling because she is tight on cash. That doesnt mean she is not worth what Forbes said.
Jennifer Aniston: Just because the actress earned a million bucks per episode on Friends doesn’t mean she has a greedy soul. On the contrary, Aniston, like her former mate Brad Pitt, is very big on helping others. Case in point: industry insiders predict that she will sign with Nike soon to appear in international advertising campaigns to promote the company products. Even though she will earn millions from the deal, Aniston plans to donate a huge chunk of the money to various cancer charities. She not the only star to use celebrity status for the common good. Eminem announced this month that he is designing limited-edition trainers for Nike that will be sold to benefit charities in his home state of Michigan.

ANISTON, STARS CONTINUE TO SUPPORT KATRINA VICTIMS
September 9, 2005
“Hollywood continues to support victims of Hurricane Katrina, by donating to organizations like the American Red Cross, and holding benefit concerts and other fundraisers. JENNIFER ANISTON has donated $500,000 to the Red Cross, reports “The Insider”’s MARC MALKIN. The ROLLING STONES’ “A Bigger Bang” tour announced they have made a $1 million donation to the Red Cross’ disaster relief fund as well. THE BLACK CROWES will also give proceeds from their October 7 Mud Island Amphitheatre concert in Memphis to hurricane victims.”
As previously announced, musical performers scheduled to appear on “Shelter From the Storm: A Concert for the Gulf Coast” include Sheryl Crow, Dixie Chicks, Alicia Keys, Randy Newman, Paul Simon, Rod Stewart and Neil Young. Celebrity participants include Jennifer Aniston, Cameron Diaz, Ellen DeGeneres, Jack Nicholson, Chris Rock, Ray Romano and Sela Ward.
——————————————————————————–
From an interview that was done by Warden Style _, last year:
WSO: Not about the clothes, but I know that you and Brad do give away quite a lot for charities, but there`s not too much of it going public, isn`t there?
Jennifer: No that`s true. And I wouldn`t want that. That`s not what giving money or whatever away is about and I`m sometimes tempted to go up the walls when some people use charity for publicity matters. There`s a horrible craze for attention today and mostly for the wrong reasons. It`s a different thing when it comes to doing those charity shows on TV, when people use the fact that others recognize their faces to attract attention for special auctions, for example. But generally I rather prefer to keep it private, it`s my own business.
That quote can be found here:
http://www.anistonavenue.com/news.htm
It’s actually kind of difficult to find out what charities she supports since she doesn’t publicize or give interviews over it, but I have found out some of them. Apparently her family was a huge influence in her philanthropic efforts, as she was doing charity stuff even before Friends.
Project ALS (Lou Gehrig’s Disease)
RAINN (Tori Amo’s abuse and incest survivors network)
St. Jude Children’s Hospital (Cancer)
Lili Claire Foundation (for children with neurogenetic disorders)
Habitat for Humanity
Hurricane Katrina Relief
Pediatric AIDS Research
Cure Autism Now
Epidermolysis Bullosa Medical Research Foundation (skin disease)
Red Cross
She’s also done things like visiting a Mexican orphanage with Molly Sims (without cameras) and she was publicly thanked by Sheryl Crow for her support when Sheryl was going through breast cancer treatment (also without cameras and interviews about it).
So stop saying she doesn’t care, she doesn’t donate time or money to humanitarian efforts, and that she is selfish and self-centered. She obviously isn’t.
(Yeah I know that this isn’t going to stop the hardcore Jolie fans from foaming at the mouth, but maybe somebody will get it.)
Back to top
As to Britney, she sold the house because it’s a divorce. She had to sell to divide the proceeds with K Fed. She needed to borrow money to finance her remodelling because she is tight on cash. That doesnt mean she is not worth what Forbes said.
******************************
But where is Britney’s assets? she has a house in Louisiana, and has a restaurant, thats about it, i dont think its worth that much. Maybe she has plenty of cars? I think she has some perfume business or whatever, but i dont think its successful. I think JLO is actually worth more than US$110m, she has a successful business empire, has lots of houses, she was estimated to be worth more than US$ 200m before, now its down to US$ 110m, i mean its just way off.
Even Aniston has only two houses worth US$ 3-5mHollywood hills) and bet US$ 10-15m for her new Bev hills house. And she spent like close to US$1m in rentals for her Malibu house for the last 2 years. Does it mean she has like US$ 80-90m in cash? Maybe she has lots of jewelry, cars, etc.

Take a look at your post, you are quoting, “…..industry insiders predict….”. Anytime you used the word “best friend said”, ” a close friend said”, those are tabloid. How much weight is this, by using “industry insiders predict.
I remember there was a NIKE rumor about that in June 2006. NIKE put out a memo saying they are NOT having any endorsement deal with Aniston.

>>>The argument for me is BEYOND Angelina vs Aniston.
My HUGE issue is this: Meryl Streep should be making 100 million NOT the Olsens NOT Aniston.
There is a HUGE disparity between women who don’t play the game and the ones who are all about branding.
I like J-LO but the woman has no acting talent and no singing talent and has been in one flop after another.
Yet who makes the millions? She does.
I like that she is a successful Latina but why can’t Salma Hayek make her level of money or Sonia Braga or Penelope Cruz who is really talented? THEY ARE NOT BRANDS.
Same with Aniston and Bullock. Why doesn’t Hillary Swank, Judi Dench or Meryl Streep make their money? Why the women who are average and less talented?
Because men still reward women who are not threatening.
With the exception of Oprah, Nicole Kidman and Julia Roberts, so many women on this list are undeserving of their millions.
When Meryl Streep makes 100 million then we can talk.

I went over to the site to look for the interview. There is nothing on that. Why does Aniston camp or Jen fans manufacture lies.
You listed a lot of charities which she supported. Support is one thing. But actual GIVING is another.
I know she does host dinner for charity. She does wear that Saint John Children Hospital T-shirt. She does do some. But is this all????
I am convinced she does gives. But NOT MUCH in relation to her enormous wealth.
242… oh yah… aniston DOES CARE… deeply… about ShE, HER, & HERSELF… Indeed, she DOES DONATE her time/money… tirelessly to humanitarian efforts closest to her hollywood heart: SELF such as hair, yoga, spas, tanning, smoking… oh god… so much humanitarian efforts on a 24/7 basis for one woman to bear… No… no… she ISN’T selfish and self-centered… hell no… she is magnanimously avaricious and centered on SELF… me… me… meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee… very charitable indeed…

I hope you noted the irony in your message before I did, the news on the impending signing between Nike and Ms. Aniston is dated 2005. The date on the news does not negate the after-fact, but I will appreciate if you can provide updated information.
Thanks in advance.

I could not find the said quote in the link provided, but I did not check the archives either. But the point I would like to raise is not that. Here are several clarifications, since my post, which had been re-posted in bold later by an unidentified person, had checked several of the foundations web site to which your message too refers:
1. I have no qualms about donating in private, either time or money. On the other hand, if one message suggests to “do your own research on the net”, I do not shy away from such research. The inconsistency here is not Ms. Aniston’s said private donations. The inconsistency is the following: even though some of the foundations openly acknowledge the support they receive- see Lili Claire Foundation’s web site, Ms. Aniston’s name does not appear.
Many of these foundations flourish by private donations, and the reason that they seek “celebrity endorsement” is to give credibility to their donor profile. Consider this: if it were for the magnitude of donations they receive from the wealthy and known individuals, we would not receive mails asking for our support. So, Ms. Aniston has all the right to keep her donations private, but this does not prevent the target foundation acknowledging her name, a case which, in my research, I failed to confirm.
2. One of the prior posts used the word “obligation”, many referred to the simple fact that Ms. Aniston has every right to donate/spend her money as she pleases.
Two points : Charity is not an “obligation”, I pointed very clearly, it is a “responsibility” given the unequal social structure of the society the upper echelons of the wealth distribution live in. What is the difference between obligation and responsibility? “Paying taxes” is an obligation, but not a full-fledged responsibility. For parents, taking care of their children is not an ‘obligation’, many parents see this as “responsibility”. In other words, obligations are the acts that are imposed on us by outside factors, responsibility is what we think we owe to others. As for the argument on Ms. Aniston (or anyone in the said list) having the right to spend/donate as she (or they) please(s), I do not expect the views of these messages and my point to be in congruity. But I prefer to believe, given the power that these women have in relation to their wealth, that it is rightful to ask about their “responsibility” — above and beyond their obligations, such as the taxes they pay.
One incorrect picture the list has given is that “gender equality” at last has been achieved. I noted before, the figures reported in the list, whether the rankings are correct or not, put these individuals at the top of 0.1% of wealth distribution in this society. For each of these women cutting to the list, there are many women in the entertainment industry, working as a screen writer etc., who, despite their intelligence and efforts, will never be as comfortable as they deserve to.
If it were not for the question of “it is all over the net, do your research”, I would not be bothered to discover the dismal track record of Ms. Aniston or other names on the list, via information accessible on the net. But as I said, the problem is not whether Ms. Aniston, or for that matter any other names in the list, is greedy, it is about when “winners take all”, should we just sit back and say it is OK, when many in this society tries to make ends meet by hard work? In other words, if someone can convince me that all these individuals are working more, and harder, than anyone you know, including yourself, working as in 50 weeks/year, 60 hrs/week and still run after the debts, and thereby deserving their money rightfully, then I too can say all is right in this world.
All the best,
~curly
“Winners take all” is the way in which one can understand why some in the sports and entertainment industry are paid as much as they are, and why no one else can make to the top. There is a good deal of research on it, kindly check google scholar.
curly has an excellent post and a good link. I am quoting part of her #113 post. If you read the detail of what Jen donated, you’ll find it’s not much according to my opinion. I took the liberty of boldfacing some phrases. Also, please click the link to see where those info are coming from

It is clearly not about Maniston making this list.
I am unbiased. Selfish, greedy & stingy as she proved
to be, she can have it! It is about how she’s got it: by being
a part of a cheap, pedestrian TV-show, AND BY SHAMEFULLY
MILKING HER DIVORCE (that brought her lots of money, and
ALL the publicity!). She repeated that with V.V. He is
a laughingstock of Chicago because of the CIRCUS
Maniston dragged him in. I do NOT think she will ever talk
to Jolie, because Jolie knows the truth!
She lied to Oprah too ( I do NOT think Oprah was aware
of that @ the time), and damaged her reputation as well.
Again, Maniston fed those rednecks hate, and she should not
be surprised people hate her now.
Again!! as a woman, I am truly ASHAMED of Maniston.
BTW, treasurehunter! could you please give me something
a little bit more TRUSTABLE than “anuston.com”?!
You guys are so wrong. Even though Angie gives 1/3 of her income away she is still a multimillionaire. Someone on here said she will never be rich because of her charity. She probably has at least 50 million and Brad has 100 million. That is rich by any standards. They own at least 4 multi-million estates around the world. I think it is great they give to charity and support human rights but they are not exactly cutting coupons and counting their pennies.
About Jen, she has supported **. Jude’s for over 10 years. She donates her time and money to them every year. Marlo Thomas has mentioned what a good friend Jen has been to **. Jude’s. Also there were 22 episodes of Friends per season not 12 like someone else stated. She made at least 50 million her last two years of Friends. Also, she got paid pretty well throughout the shows run which was on for 10 years. While CC and Lisa also got movies and endorsement deals, Jen always got considerably more. She was always ranked as America’s favorite “friend.” The last Forbes ranking for highest paid actresses has her in the top 10 at #8, whereas CC and Lisa didn’t make the list.
Someone metioned that Jen’s mother has money problems. Jen and her mother don’t speak to each other because Jen’s mother wrote a tell-all-book about Jen when Friends became a hit. They are currently estranged. Angie also doesn’t speak to her father because he stated in the press that he feared for her mental stability. The are also currently estranged. Both Jen and Angie feel like they have been very hurt by their respective parents and it is their business if they want to cut off ties.
Lastly before you guys say that either Jen or Angie are ugly please post your picture so we can judge you ,as this is only fair. Also when you say that Jen doesn’t donate enough or Angie only donates for PR please state what percentage of your income you donate to charity per year. If you don’t have a lot of money then please let us know what charities you voluteer for. Thanks

B*tch is cheap except when she donated $500,000 to NO.
Also the people that keep complaining about Jen getting money from Company B must not be married. Marriage is a partnership between the spouses. Even if Brad was the mastermind behind the company, I am sure that Jen encouraged and supported this venture. Brad, like most husbands, probably used his wife as a sounding board for ideas and projects. Jen could have been a ***** and fought him for a bigger stake in the company, but she didn’t. Brad himself said that she was making the divorce very amicable and that he loved her it.
If you don’t ever want to split money from your business ventures don’t get married. Jennifer Tilly is still getting Simpson money from her ex-husband Sam Simon. Sam has said that she gets a check every year, even though she hates the show and told him it would never succeed.
I have read most of the posts here and one thing amazes me, there are 20 women on that list “20″ and yet most of the posts are about Jen ! Wow she is rich and popular ! good for her. And there are some who are so obsessed with Jolie and upset that she didn’t make it on the list that they make up for it by slinging mud at Aniston.
So she is richer than Jolie,So she does not do as much charity as Ms. Jolie, so what ? its her wealth, her money, she will do what ever she wants to do with it.Why is one so desperate to compare her every move with Jolie ? you know, it would make it acceptable for all these Jolie obsessed fugs to follows her foot steps …they should also start adopting from African countries, start contributing money to charity , (there is no rule that only rich people should do charity, like wise there is no rule that every rich person must do charity)instead of going green in the face. On that note, Jolie fans should also try and follow her foot steps on other matters as well , like taking drugs , making out with their brothers / sisters … instead of abusing Aniston for not doing what Ms.Jolie does. It would make more sense also coz, you are the one obsessed with Jolie not Ms. Aniston.
oh bye the way, even if she did get her money from Brag Pitt (which she didn’t) so what, he was the one who left, right ? So deal with it !!!
Jennifer Aniston in 2007
Looking through our own crystal ball we see Jennifer Aniston falling even deeper into an abysmal pit of misery with the death of her father John Aniston (born Ioannis Anastasakis)early on in the year.
Jennifer will lock herself away from the world, and won’t be seen for weeks. Jennifer will have lost considerable weight and will be looking worse than Nicole Richie ever looked. And then she will ……..
Continue you the story…
Seems like Jennifer Aniston might have to do something extremely drastic like
kill herself . Do you like if she kill herself?
Wait answer.

always thought that Nicole Kidman had so much more than Jen!! =/

i really dont care if some people get publicity by donating money. thats the greatest way for celebrities to do it. at least they’re doing something that will help others than the tabloids.
its quite more honorable than being popular just for dating a guy each week or making a sex-tape show up somewhere…
if Jen donates something, I can be nothing but proud of her, but i guess she could change her attitude and think about how such an action from her could inspire some people to do the same.
she should become a lesbian and start defending the animals or something
why drew b. and reese w. not on the list.i thought they both own production company.i think this list is not that accurate.

HOW ABOUT SARAH JESSICA PARKER?she is the executive producer of sex in the city isnt it?and i read that she is one of the wealthiest woman in new york,why she’s not on the list either?now i am more convinced that this list is BOLLOCKS!
EXPENSE LIST BRAVO!!It’s a little bit ‘funny’ when you make the comparaison,but it sounds pretty realistic. Angie is a devoted mom and wife (as if) and I’ll never have doubts about it.
what the hell does $1,500 million mean?
The forbes lady who appeared on the INSIDER show said that Jennifer aniston’e earnings came mostly from Friends royalties and earnings. so why in the world, Liza Kudrow and courtney cox were not on the list? Jennifer earnings from the movies are not that much, Liza and Courtney also made and produced some movies.
Courtney Cox and Lisa Kudrow should be on the list. Even if they don’t have as much money as Jen, they obviously have more than Renee Zelweger’s $45 million. THey made $50 million from the last 2 seasons of friends alone. This list is stupid. They did it based on fame and not just money.
Jennifer Aniston may have made her money and also invested wisely. We are not privy to what financial plans she has made. Also it her choice to remain childless. None of us should be the judges. I am a mother and I can tell you it is hard work and takes a lot of dedication and hard work on the parents part. We have to respect other peoples CHOICES.
Good for Angie and Brad for the CHOICES they have made in life. But those are their own CHOICES. Also why are we not all donating as much as we can afford from our own salaries before we tell everyone else what they should donate?
Janet Jackson has done a lot for differnt organizations over the years. Love or hate her brother Michael but before it was cool and talked about he did much more than many care to acknowledge. I am also a little wary of all the attention some peolpe seem to demand when they are doing these so called charitable deeds.
I respect Oprah and for those criticizing her what has Martha done with all her money? Why are we not hammering on her? The only people that are being hammered on are Oprah, Janet and Jennifer… Two black women and one who the Brangelina fans hate…
It is not Jen’s fault she is richer that Angie. Get over it you fools.
“It is not Jen’s fault she is richer (that) Angie. Get over it you fools.”
Looks like someone else is looking like a fool too, Susie Q.
What is up with everyone hating on Jennifer Aniston….. leave the girl alone. I mean if you don’t like her don’t waste your time talking about her.

=================================
The discussion here is about Jennifer Aniston because this website is Brangelina friendly and a lot of fans of Brangelina post here on a regular basis and they seem to discuss about JA becuase she had her past connected with Brad and that’s why it’s quite relevant to discuss how she made so much wealth, when the facts are that she was’nt so rich when she was married to Brad and so these posts are just speculating if her wealth amassed was due to Plan B.
Did i clarify your silly doubt about why we are discussing only Jennifer Aniston’s wealth among the 20 people who made it to the list???
Cliniqua and me too…great posts ladies.
And you are so right. The bulk of aniston’s money comes from her ex husband NOT her er…ummm career. As for Angelina not making the list, don’t be fooled. Angelina is far from poor and her net worth should have put her on the list actually. There are a few others with a net worth that should have put them on that list as well. In the past these lists have been found to be a bit inaccurate, but hey it’s a list. These woman have money but they don’t necessarily have power. Angelina actually has a great deal of power. Oprah, J.K, Madonna, Martha, Janet all wield a great deal of power…while it is partly the money it is also to a greater extent who they know and what they can accomplish because of their acquaintances. Which with the woman mentioned including Angelina, is an amazing thing. Aniston may have the money but she doesn’t have the pull. She did when she was married to Brad, as Mrs. William Bradley Pitt but no longer.
Oprah, J.K, Madonna, Martha, Janet and Angelina don’t need a man’s last name. They trade on their own names. They are the woman who sit down with potentates, delegates and religious leaders. H^ll Diane Sawyer should be on the list I know her net worth has to be up there. She’s also a very powerful woman. But like I said, its a list, one we shouldn’t take too seriously.
For all the money that Jen has, why didnt she pick up her mother’s living expense. Please remember, her mother is in LA indignant care.
I am NOT asking her to reconcile, talk, or see her mother. She can just WRITE A CHECK.
Charity begins at HOME
Jen’s mother has money problems. Jen and her mother don’t speak to each other because Jen’s mother wrote a tell-all-book about Jen when Friends became a hit. They are currently estranged.
_____________________
Charity begins at Home.
On one knows what happened between the the mother and daughter.
But if her mother in her OLD AGE is in financial trouble, shouldnt she help her out by JUST WRITING A CHECK.
She does NOT need to meet, see , or reconcile with her. Just mail her a check.
I know for a fact that this list is not accurate. There are more than 13 other names that should have been on that list but there was more criteria that forbes is not mentioning. Just like their “other” so-called Hollywood lists, this one is WRONG. Britney spears is worth more than $100 mil and so are the Olsen twins, Angelina is worth over 50 million (its true), where is Paris Hilton who is worth over 50 million (before her inheritance and yes she is in entertainment) Mariah Carey is not worth more than Janet Jackson. Reese Witherspoon is worth more than 45 million. Meryl Streep is also worth more than 45 million. And yes Aniston does belong on this list but for all you nay sayers, so does Angelina (even after her donations she’s up there.)
Come on do a little research outside of some supposed “list” all of this is a matter of public record.
like I said, the list is WRONG!
Celine Dion and Sandra Bullock are probably the only truely nice and happy people on this list.

____________________
1) I am glad you said Brad is the Mastermind of Plan B. This is exactly what every poster is saying. Jen is a partner-in-name only. We are NOT saying Jen did not support this venture. We are saying she got the bulk of her money by being married to Brad and that Brad was kind enough to include her as partner. It was the success of Plan B that she got the BULK of her money. The key word is BULK.
2) As to your saying Jen could have fought him for a bigger stake, I am a CPA. I sat in many similar negotiations together with lawyers, and owners. You are NOT privy to those info. So dont write LIES.
3) Jen was never CEO nor producer material. Imagine, if she has to call her girlfriends on the tinest thing. How can you run a company and run it successfully.
4) If you read the interview article at Variety, a trad magazine. Brad said, “….bitter divorce….” regarding Plan B.
In conclusion, we are NOT against Jen. We believe Jen is worth 110M. But the bulk of her money came from the settlement from Plan B which Brad paid her off.
Also, if Jen’s mother is in indignant care, should she be helping her out by writing a check. Consider what she has, this is chump change !!!! I am not asking her to reconcile or see her.
Also, Jen should give back MORE . Just attending charity dinner or wearing a Saint John T shirt for the Children’s Hospital is NOT enough.

Why on earth would any of you look up to or stand up for any of these people. The entire entertainment industry is full of fake, selfish, demoralized people. People wonder why our society is the way it is??? When you have celebrities jumping in and out of each others beds every other month with all of these stupid tabloids, style shows, and awards shows glamorizing it all. Most people in this industry have completely lost touch with reality. If any celebrity donates to a charity, it is all because their Public relations team suggested they do so. The reason they do things like this is for all of you out there to become more brainwashed and diehard fans so they get RATINGS! I find it very hard to believe that if any of these celebrities never made it to stardome and did not have a PR rep telling them what to do, that any of them would have ever been invloved in any sort of relief efforts, charities, or political issues. Just because I am not rich makes me less of a person then a celebrity. I bet I spend more quality time with the needy then any celebrity that claims to be so genuin and caring. I know in my own heart if I ever had 100 million + dollars, I could not sit by in one of my five million dollar estates and watch as any child in our world starves to death. When did celebrities become everyones gods? I cannot stand any of them. Enough so that I dont watch TV or movies. Open your eyes people. You dont know these people and they dont give a crap about anything except for getting you to pay to watch them pretend to be something better than they really are. Have any of you ever heard of selling your soul? Why are you all so invloved with these poples lives. Why dont you try getting involved in the things they so call stand for yourself and see then if you have any time to care who makes what and who slept with who this week!
I am always amused when the righteous hypocrites ride into Jared and start condemning those who post here, telling us to get lives! And you are here because?????

Has anyone noticed that 13 out of the twenty women have no kids…Could that be a factor? out of twenty eleven of them are single and unmarried…hmmm
What does this all mean.
I know Oprah is #1 richest woman…Did you see the CNN news today..There was this woman there talking about Oprah extravagant gift of building that school for 152 kids…
She is a retired school teacher who gives of her money and raises money to build schools in Mali… She said although the building of a school is a nice gesture on oprahs part..the extravagance of it is wasteful. She went on to explain that she could have built 16000 schools for that price for a larger amount of children…
I think that Oprahs gift was sort like a slap in the face to those that build basic school so that all kids could attend…thats the purpose for building the schools inthe first place. Its like Oprah saying hey look at my elegant regal school is far better than yours. I took a year to build it. menawhile how many children lost out on school b/c of it?
Also have you heard of Kevin Bacon’s new idea. Six degrees.. he is planning to put up a website called six degrees that will connect you to your favorite stars charities…
The only one paying for their lies is Brangelina. The media has turned on them, same as most people.
Just get it. Angelina was finished. Nominated 7 razzies in 5 years.
The fake humanitarian needed to become the mistress of a producer to continue her crappy work.
Aniston made more money than Pitt during their marriage. He hardly worked.
The money she got for the house was a pay out for Plan B.
Work she invested in, Angelina now profits from.
But not long. Plan B will tank. Angelina is no help. How could she, with her insect brain?
Aniston didn’t get any money of Pitt. So, be no even more jalous of her. Of her success, of the love she gets from the public.
Haters, jalous and sickminded like your idol.
If you must know how I fell upon this site here it is, I am researching. I have recently become invloved in an proposal being brought to our airway controllers by concerned parents whose children cannot turn on the television without hearing foul language, seeing extreme violence, and graphic sexual scenes. Not to mention the foul messages they see while standing in line at the grocery store. Well yes it is a parents responsibility to control what our children watch, a lot of us are wondering why there is nothing on TV that caters to us who refuse to watch the smut our society calls entertainment. Of course this is aside from certain shows on the discovery channel and animal planet. Trust me , by no means would I ever come to this site for any other reason then research. My world is bigger then fashion and affairs. By the way Rubbers (nice name) do you have children? Do you think it is okay for celebrities such as brittany who say an 11 year old girl looks up too, being plastered all over the supermarket tabloids drunk out of her mind with her bare bottom showing. Do you want your kids to grow up in that kind of world? Have you ever asked yourself why is it now that we have such an increased rate of childhood prenancies and school shootings. Would you want your daughter to be the next Angelina, Britanny, or how about lindsey who all have severe emotional and even drug and alcohol abuse problems or maybe you would like your son to be someone like hmm, lets say Charlie Sheen (an abusive addict) Think real hard about all of this. I will leave your post now and never return so you will never have to worry about hearing from me again and I will never have to worry about defending myself over such a pointless bunch of people, who people like you have decided to make icons! Please really consider seeing the point I have made though - Open your mind a little.
Kevin are you gingeranny? Better take a bicarb for all the bile you spewing honey. Don’t want any of that hate boomeranging back to yo ugly self:)
It is amazing how hypocritic these Jen fans are. If you read all the posts, they are saying Jen made her money from friends and movies. How can they ignore Plan B?
Well, after someone pointed out the significance of Plan B for the bulk of Jen’s wealth (post #223), then we started seeing all these Jen fans spinning on this (see post #253 and on).
It’s so simple math. It doesnt take a person with high IQ to figure out. Both Lisa Kudrow and Courtney Cox were in friends, got the SAME pay , 1M per episode in the last season. Why werent they on the list?
Scroll up and look at the list. Aniston is #10 with a networth of 110M. The last one on the list is #20 Renee Zellweger with 45M.
Think for a second, this means Courtney and Lisa Kudrow dont even have 45M otherwise they will be on the list.
45M and 110M is a big difference. Jen got twice or may be 3 or 4 times more than Lisa and Courtney. You go figure !!!
Another piece of info, both Courtney and Lisa do movies similar to Jen. What Courtney and Lisa lack is PLAN B.
Now is it reasonable to conclude that Jen got the bulk of her wealth through the divorce settlement from Plan B?? That Brad was kind enough to include her. That Brad had to pay her off .
wow, there are so many blondes on that list.
In that whole Aniston-Pitt-Jolie thing, Jen is laughing at last.
Angelina is so stupid, I mean, she get all media to that charity thing and she doesn’t even have all that money to give to that poor third world ********.
to #276 — didn’t both Sandra Bullock and Celine Dion steal their husbands from some less famous women.
Yes CC and Lisa also have Friends money. But Jennifer always got more movies and endorsement deals than they did. Check IMDB. Every year she ranked as America’s favorite friend. Also, according to Forbes she is the 8th highest paid actress right now. CC and Lisa aren’t even in the top 20. There are reasons she has more money then them.
To CPA, I don’t know why you say I am lying. Lying about what? I just said that in the divorce she could have put up a fight for a bigger stake in the business. My aunt’s husband left her for another women. She fought for and won half of his medical practice even though she is not a doctor. I am a lawyer, but I don’t do Family Law. I am a child advocacy lawyer, but even I can tell you she could have made the divorce very contentious. When another woman is involved some women turn the divorce into a war, but Jen didn’t.

The observed difference in kids vs. no kids of the Forbes’ wealth rankings may be due to the “trust funds” people set for their children. I have seen less wealthy families doing as such. Their assets may be diversified within trust funds and their own holdings which, as expected, would reflect to the level of current asset holdings.
To the extent that this explanation is correct, it should also answer the crass demeanour style of post #287.
All the best,

When another woman is involved some women turn the divorce into a war, but Jen didn’t.
=====================================================
That’s because she COULDN’T. There was no other woman involved, Brad said that himself in his interview with Diane Sawyer, the same way he said that the divorce was not about Jennifer’s not wanting any children.
Also about Jen’s mother. Even as a child Jen’s mother would put her down. Her mother would pick on her looks and her hair. Most of her insecurities are probably due to her mother. As soon as Jen got some sucess she sold her out to the tabloids and wrote a book. I don’t know think I would ever cut my mother off, but she would NEVER sell me out for money. I don’t feel too bad for this women. I also feel this is an issue between them.
When Jon Voight goes to the media crying about how much he wants to meet his grandkids or about how much he wants to see Angie, I feel bad for him. I still think he was wrong about going to the media about her mental state. She feels he sold her out, so it is her business if she never wants to see him again.
How has it become your business how anyone makes or not make her money!!!! Why don’t you all go back and see where you’ve made or not made your own money.
Besides, if, say, Jan made her money from Pitt, why do you think it’s your business to talk about it. Isn’t it for Pitt himself to claim? What is your relationship with Pitt?
Must be a slow day at the law firm and don’t we spend a lot of time knowing about our gal Jen and her mother complex.
” Most of her insecurities are probably due to her mother. As soon as Jen got some sucess she sold her out to the tabloids and wrote a book… I don’t feel too bad for this women. I also feel this is an issue between them.”
This is why Leslie Bennetts made sure the public knew that Jen was going to make up with that “last diseased part of her”, her mother. And let’s not forget the phonecall and then the leaked tidbits about Mother’s Day and spending Christmas together (the one with Vince). When does the wealthy Aniston suck it up and make amends? Perhaps this is why she is attracting sooo much negative.
Why do Jen supporters keep complaining about Angelina “stealing” Brad from Jen?? If that man was happy and “satisfied” in his marriage, he would’nt be looking for that in other women. A man definitely has his “needs” and if he’s not getting any form his married partner he goes to someone else. Time and time again men have done this. History has scores of men who did the same. What Brad did has been done like a million times before by other men. So, you women who think Jen was mother theresa should really get your facts straight and get a life.
FRom the other thread: Anyone see American Idol? All those nuts who get up there and think they can sing and they are sincere - they have no clue as too how bad they are - then they get angry and cry when they are told no. Have to admit the Idol team does say some pretty nasty things to them - they pick out the worse ones to be on the show then go at them for fun - despicable. Well lots of regulars on this site - like Cliniqua have the same mentallity as these idol wanabees - they are so out of touch with reality if it wasn’t so scarely sad it would be amusing. I wouldn’t want to bump into any of them in a dark alley.

__________________________
We are NOT arguing whether Jen is right or Jen is wrong regarding her relationship with her mother.
We are NOT asking her to reconcile with her mother. We are NOT asking her to talk or to see her mother.
But if her mother in her old age is in indignant care, should she pick up her living expense???
Remember her mother carried Jen in her stomach for 9 mothes and gave her life
Regardless of what happened while Jen was growing up, should she at least just let the grudge fall and cut a check? This is pocket change considering her enormous wealth.
Any decent human being will do that (write a check)
I mean just write a check if she is so RICH.
Another thing, dont bring Jolie into this. This is Not about Jolie and her father. Jolie’s father is not in financial trouble. When you compare Jolie with Jen, you immediately lost creditbility.

Trust me, even the worst of them all has his/her dream of being an Idol. So, pls, keep your sarcasm to yourself and dont judge others so casually. Your post was really very very bad!

These kinda posts tick me off. I did’nt want to say this, but as an outsider, i’ve noted that a lot of American women are very snubbish, like the poster i quoted above. Very few humble women i’ve come across here in this country. Why is that? Kinda very discouraging to the feminine race. I agree you American women dont think you are lesser than your male counterparts. But remember, nature created us to be more humble and gentle. Physiologically, we are somewhat at disadvantage compared to males. Iam not saying women need to be meek, but there’s definitely that softer and humbler side to us that we were meant to be mothers. And when i come across such arrogant posts it disses me off.
CLINIQUA you are the best writer and I’m sure if I could hear you talk, the most eloquent speaker “in the house”! You hit it right on the money (so to speak) regarding Jennifer Aniston. But I doubt if she really have all that money considering the number of nose jobs she had done. Have you ever seen her “older pre-Friends” pictures? That nose cost her “mucho dinero”.
I came to this site for the title. It’s interesting how Jen had increased her networth for $60M in a matter of one year. I remember watching the richest celebrities around this time of the year in 2006 on E and reading it on the website and magazine. Jen and Angelina were tied at $50M each and Brad was $75M. The list of richest people is published yearly- so check what these people were worth a year ago and to know the annual net gained. Jen & Brad’s divorce was finalized in 2006. Hmmm go figure!

To CPA, I don’t know why you say I am lying. Lying about what? I just said that in the divorce she could have put up a fight for a bigger stake in the business. My aunt’s husband left her for another women. She fought for and won half of his medical practice even though she is not a doctor. I am a lawyer, but I don’t do Family Law. I am a child advocacy lawyer, but even I can tell you she could have made the divorce very contentious. When another woman is involved some women turn the divorce into a war, but Jen didn’t.
_______________
1) Let me tell you, in California divorce law, whether there is another woman or another man is IRREVELANT when it comes to divorce in California. Property settlement is based on the terms of company, contract, ownership etc. The spouse having a girlfriend or boyfriend does NOT enter into the equation in awarding spousal support or property settlement.
2) In this case, Jen is a partner in Plan B. Legally she has rights as a partner. She does NOT get more rights whether the husband has a girl friend or not. Get this into your head.
3) You quote your aunt’s divorce case. Let me remind you, your aunt’s divorce is NOT the same as Jen. Circumstances are different. Your aunt may be a stay-at-home mom or a wife who put her husband thru med school. So what your aunt is entitled to is different from what is Jen is entitled to. Also, I dont know if your aunt also resides in California. Aniston’s circumstances are completely different.
Therefore DONT apply your aunt’s divorce case to Aniston. They are totally different animal!!!
3) You said, Jen could have put up a figtht for a bigger stake, but she didnt. How do you know Jen did NOT turn the divorce into an ugly battle. Do you have privy info on that???
You are not a divorce lawyer nor a CPA nor any of the lawyer’s or the accountant’s assistant who sat across the table to know what went on. This is why I said you lied.
If you read the trade paper, Variety, Brad made a comment about Plan B, “….bittle divorce….” . I can only say the negotiation had to be intense.
I am a CPA. I sat in many of these negotiations with owners and lawyers. Therefore, I know what the atmosphere is like.
Remember, if your Jen is so CHEAP on charity, do you think she will give up the company for free?
Use common sense, she hired experts, namely lawyer and accountants.
I honestly do not think that Jen was that heartbroken over losing Brad, Why does everyone insist she was. I think she got bored with him. He seems very boring to me. In an interview David Arquette says that they have never even seen Jen cry over all of this. They mutually decided to divorce.
Also Brad is not that hot. David Beckham is hot, Joshua Duhmal is hot. Brad is Old!
I also dont think Angelina and him will last . If Brad Pitt is too boring for Jen then he is definately too boring for Angelina! Angelina probably will request spousal support because her career is pretty much over. Will anyone be screaming about it being his money when Angelina has it?
Brad Pitt is So Lame - why would Angelina even have chose him?

know her personally do you? Know angelina’s personal taste…what she finds exciting? Didn’t think so! As for her career…no hun her career is flying high. she has no shortage for roles. You might want to pay closer attention to the fading career of Aniston. You know the woman who has to rely on her friend for a career hand out. (Dirt season finale ring a bell?) And incase Angelina and Brad should ever split, she won’t need to ASK for support, she’s got the one thing your pathetic little idle doesn’t CHILDREN!!!! His money she doesn’t need…never did. As for THEIR CHILDREN, he will ALWAYS support them.
D^mn that’s just gotta suck for you aniston fiends!
I DON’T THINK THE LIST IS TRUE WHY NICOLE KIDMAN ONLY HAS 60 MILLION SHE IS MUCH RICH THAN THAT AND IT MEANS THAT AGUILERA IS AS MUCH AS WEALTHY AS KIDMAN AND HOW JEN ANISTON(I DON’T HATE HER)HAS ALL THIS MONEY

Jennifer Aniston may have made her money and also invested wisely. We are not privy to what financial plans she has made. Also it her choice to remain childless. None of us should be the judges. I am a mother and I can tell you it is hard work and takes a lot of dedication and hard work on the parents part. We have to respect other peoples CHOICES.
_________________
1) You claimed Jen invested wisely. So are Courtney and Lisa Kudrow. They all invested. The reason why Jen made the list and not Courtney is because Brad was kind enough to let Jen in on Plan B.
2) We are not jealous of Jen. Again, I repeat, we are NOT jealous of Jen. We merely analyse and comment on how she got her wealth. Please read post #286 who analysed her money.
3) As to Jen being childless. Again, we have no problem on her decision. What we are saying is she lied to the media abouta baby is on the way, when she has NO INTENTION of opening her womb. Why, because we caught her smoking. It’s her lying we are complaining about and NOT her decision of going childless.
I JUST REMEMBER THAT JENNIFER ANISTON CREATED A FILM PRODUCTION COMPAGNY (Plan B Productions) WITH BRAD PITT AND THEY PRODUCE CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY IT’S MAYBE WHY SHE IS RICH

MOP Says:

Charlie and the chocolate factory is produced by Plan B. Plan B is very successful due to Brad.
The success of any business venture is due to management, and direction of CEO etc.
Jen is NOT producer or CEO material. If this girl always has pity parties, call her girlfriends on the tiniest thing, would you hire her as producer or CEO? Would you hire her to manage a company?
You’re right, she got the bulk of her money from Plan B. She was lucky that Brad was kind enough to let me be a silent partner.

You Jen fans are so hypocritical. You are not even human being. It’s one thing to love Jen, but it’s another thing to find excuses for Jen not to care for her mother.
As a mother, I am shocked at how you Jen fans defend Jen. It doesnt matter what went on between the two. If the mother needs help, Jen should step in. After all, you guys she is RICH, with 110M. By finding excuses for Jen, you are NOT helping Jen at all.
Let me give you a hypothetical example. A mother and daughter dont get along….leading to estrangement. We dont need to know the reasons. But if the mother falls into the ocean, is the daughter going to be standing on the deck , start thinking….hmmm….when I was 3, you did this to me, when I was 5, you did that to me….
Shouldnt the daughter render help immediately instead of letting her mother drown????
For Jen, if her mother is in INDINANT CARE, shouldnt Jen be picking up the bill? Any human being should do that, right? Remember
Charity begins at HOME
Please tell Jen to stop this cruel behavior. Tell her to CUT A CHECK for her mother.
Upset that your precious saint isn’t on the list? Before she even met Brad she was rich and famous from her very popular show Friends. Your girl was still making out on red carpets with BBT, wearing vials of blood, wanting to build a rubber room for their wild sex and checking herself into mental hospitals when BBT wouldn’t leave LD for her. Consider the following:
Jennifer won People’s Choice Award
Brad dropped off the Top 10 List of Favorite Movie Stars to #14
Only 18% of US public would pay money to see Angelina movie
By the way, all charitable contributions are tax deductable so she is no big saint.
And no, they don’t live like most movies stars - they only have 4 mansions, planes, stay at 5-star resorts while dealing with the poor unfortunates for photo-ops, travel with an entourage - including nannies and carry around 97 pieces of luggage. What pathetic hypocrites!!!
Angelina may not be on the list but I am sure she is the happiest of them all coz she gives so much of her income away!! Good for you Angie!! Proud of you!!
I think Brad and Angelina are getting the better part of the deal “upset”, your girl would sell her soul to get Brad back and everyone on earth knows it, including you!
As for 18% watching Angelina movies, after the craptastic work of your girl you are standing neck deep in quicksand with your stats.
But keep voting the people’s choice that is always a good barometer of popularity!

“If any celebrity donates to a charity, it is all because their Public relations team suggested they do so.”
How does this poster know this??
“If you must know how I fell upon this site here it is, I am researching.”
Why do incoherent posters always say they are doing research??? And “if” they are doing research, the state of research is in big trouble.
“I have recently become invloved in an proposal being brought to our airway controllers by concerned parents whose children cannot turn on the television without hearing foul language, seeing extreme violence, and graphic sexual scenes. Not to mention the foul messages they see while standing in line at the grocery store. Well yes it is a parents responsibility to control what our children watch, a lot of us are wondering why there is nothing on TV that caters to us who refuse to watch the smut our society calls entertainment. Of course this is aside from certain shows on the discovery channel and animal planet.”
It’s difficult to follow this posters point…rambling, ranting and incoherent.
Re: Rubber Says: January 19th, 2007 at 12:10 pm
“I am always amused when the righteous hypocrites ride into Jared and start condemning those who post here…” self righteous” is right…AND the “hit and run posters” always qualify: “Trust me , by no means would I ever come to this site for any other reason then research”… right. They are so intimidated by anyone responding, they have to set themselves up for their own anticipated rejection because they honestly think no one will respond to their rants if they point out they won’t read it. If they were sincere, they’d stick around and read the counter arguments. This poster continues by posting “I will never have to worry about defending myself”… more drivel…making a statement is all about defending the strength of your convictions and therefore your integrity. This person is not to be believed…what balderdash, G.E.D. twaddle.
*You are soooo RICH*
so to Jennifer Aniston, I have this to say to you
1) You can live very well with this money. But do give back, NOT CHEAP
2) stop this pity party
3) stop milking your divorce for public sympathy.
4) stop lying to the public
5) get rid of that “happy” if you havent done so( if what Ted C said is correct)
6) Please pick up your mother’s living expense because she is in a LA indigent care ward.

________________-
Regarding your mention of 18% will see Angie’s movie., let me tell you, if you want to quote, quote from the LEGIT SOURCE. Your 18 % is taken from a us magazine poll.
The us magazine poll is NOTa scientific poll. You can repeatedly click , click and click. You dont even have to wait 5 minutes before voting again. Please go try !!!!! I once click 3000 votes in 2 hours. This is to tell you what a SHAM it is.
You dont need to know statistics. Just use common sense. For us magazine poll, all you need is an overactive finger. Either you need more education or you write lies.
As to all charitable contribution are tax deductible, yes, that’s true. Ask any CPA, the highest combined tax bracket for both Federal and California is 45 %. This means you only save $45 for every $100 you donate. It is NOT a 100 % total savings. You still have to come up with the money.
Deduction applies to everyone including Jen, that is if your idol Jen ever donates. But your Jen is CHEAP , in relation to her wealth. You are unhappy because we exposed her !!!!

Stop making excuses for Ms. Aniston. Aniston might not agree with her mother behavior, but please, if you’re worth 110 million and your mother is sick and in financial difficulty , wouldn’t you lend a hand ? Do you think Aniston just grew up naturally without the nursing and nuturing of her mother. for me Aniston was cold and mean. the image of sweetheart was just facede that her publicist, manager created.
and please don’t compare the case of Angelina and her dad, her dad left her at a tender age of 2 months. it’s her mother who raise her. love her, nutured her. as I know, the house and the medical expenses of Merceline all came from Angelina’s pocket. she had said before, no matter where she was, she always found time calling her mother, and as much as possible she spent time with her mother. NOW, who’s the good daughter.

You obviously have a problem with someone who speaks their mind up in an aggressive manner…maybe it’s not your style and that’s okay, but Cliniqua is definitely one of the regular posters who is in touch with reality if anything. She’s factual, logical and organized, sometimes frustrated which is easy to become on a public blog…the direct approach for some may be “scarely sad” (your terminilogy) and you don’t need to read her posts if you find her style of writing “scarely sad” or offensive, but for many she is assertive and not “scarely sad” but highly amusing, informative and brave enough to post what is on her mind, some people find that an attribute as opposed to silently fuming and passive aggressive behavior. People who tend to be “scarely” about what is said by others should not get even close to a dark alley…and BTW the individuals who are the most vocal are not the ones you have to be “scarely” of in a dark alley…it’s the quiet ones.

You will also note that there are posts describing on how and why the discussion is not exclusive on Ms. Aniston’s wealth.
From your message I understand you believe that many of the names on the list are “working more, and harder, that anyone you know, including yourself, as in 50 wk/year 60 hrs/wk and still run after the debts, thereby earned their money rightfully…”
Good to know. Thanks.

Brentwood…get your fact straight, it was a gallop poll. so it was a very scientific poll and no clicking involved. You really must check your facts before spouting off.
Curly your posts are so long and boring.. talk about analysis paralysis…. if you think you can blind people by science and long boring posts by all means keep doing so but don’t think anybody reads them.
*Let’s analyse Aniston’s money*
1) She got 1M per episode for friends. It’s 12 episodes per year. Friends ran for 10 or 12 years. But this 1M per episode happened only in the last season. She did NOT get 1M per episode in the 1st few seasons. Therefore, the bulk of 110M is not from TV friends alone.
2) Next, look at her movies. Think how much she made. She is NOT big name star like Julia Roberts. Therefore this accumulation of 110M is not from movies making alone.
3) Does she come from a rich family. Her parents were divorced. She was doing odds and ends job before becoming famous. Therefore, she did not get this 110M from family.
4) You may say Aniston accumulated her wealth from movies and TV friends combined . But if you look at Courtney Cox , who is very similar to Aniston. She also get the same pay as Aniston. Courtney also did movies. But Courtney’s name is not in this Forbes list.
5) It’s so simple math. It doesnt take a person with high IQ to figure out. Both Lisa Kudrow and Courtney Cox were in friends, got the SAME pay , 1M per episode in the last season. Why werent they on the list?
Scroll up and look at the list. Aniston is #10 with a networth of 110M. The last one on the list is #20 Renee Zellweger with 45M.
Think for a second, this means Courtney and Lisa Kudrow dont even have 45M otherwise they will be on the list.
45M and 110M is a big difference. It means Jen’s networth is twice or may be 3 or 4 times more than Lisa and Courtney. You go figure !!!
Another piece of info, both
