Top 20 Richest Women in Entertainment

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

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 !!!!

>>>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 cannot, cannot believe that ! 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?

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.

Jen is this Rich

Why we havent heard of her DONATING???

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.

angelina blah blah blah aniston blah blah blah angelina blah blah blah aniston pitt blah

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.

how did Gisele Bundchen get so rich! Richer than kate moss?

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.

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.

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!!!!!!

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 .
