a black man and woman topped the list? What is the world coming to?
Fantastic!
Justin Timberlake was attacked as a teenager because he is white
All you Brangelina Lovers are so annoying. Malow must be on their payroll ’cause you sure kiss alot of @ss. Either way these people don’t share their wealth with me so I can give a **** about all of them.
Oh yeah, Kimi Räikkönen, ******* :D
Why are the top two people black?
I see Brad is back to wearing a hat. I just don’t understand why he chooses to wear it like Pete Doherty does, and not the way Johnny Depp wears one. The hats/brims always look good on Johnny and not on BP or PD.
Oh God,
There is a white supremacist on this site. Justin got attacked? Thank God he had the brains not to allow himself to become infiltrated with hatred. Now he’s rich, famous and successful and loved by all kinds of people.
Racists are ALL a bunch of socially inept LOSERS!

Why are the top two people black?
===============================================
Because they earned the most money. Duh! What the ****!
I can’t get over the fact that Oprah made more money than all these people, including Donald Trump. That just blows me away.
After all these years in the business, Madonna still came in third. Wow! She is one true hardworking icon. She rocks big time!
Don’t forget people that Brad is a producer and he produced The Departed. Of course he is higher than Johnny and Tom!
Way to Go Madonna!!
WHERE’S BRITNEY?
Why are we all discussing who made the most money? that’s saved for the forbes most wealthy celeb list, this is for the most powerful celebs. like we didn’t know that oprah had mad cheese? they should of stopped at #10
Where is Paul McCartney?????!!!!!
nicole kidman makes over $17 million per movie cause she makes bad movies…all her movies are amazing…hilary duff deserves to be higher cause that’s the one celebrity starlet who’s doing it right!
yea GO KIMI he should be higher I think he earns more than those other celebrities!
yeaaaaaaaaaaaah nicole you rock !! number 27# thats befor that loser julia roberts she is number 68#, and katie shes not in the list hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahay
congragilaiton nicole (kidman)we love you ,
Well I’m surprised - they are being a bit unfair to singers, don’t you think? What about people like … Beyonce, and Christina Aguilera? I should think they would be on there if it were about influence, but this list is decided a lot by income too I suppose, which can be monopolized by label leaders … at any rate there were still quite a few obscure people on there that could stand replacing.
Also, I understand that a lot of people hate Britney Spears, but if they calculate media exposure then she should be on there. I think they took her off because otherwise people would complain that their list was a “joke,” as it is a “power” list which ranks celebrities on their influence..but then shouldn’t they take off anyone who only got on because of gossip and stuff? People like Hilary Duff and Jessica Simpson who haven’t really…achieved anything, and who can’t influence people’s decisions because they are not taken seriously by the public, should be demoted too don’t you think?
I think this is more of a “visibility and money” list than a power or influence list. Power and influence can’t be measured this way.
AJ is voted one of the most hated celebrities in the world while JA is top 5 most liked… so.. being most powerful does not nessacarily mean most liked.. also, give her some time… JA will do more movies and shell be popular again… i mean AJ has had a few more tries. and if you really want to look that means more flps too.
Roger Federer deserves to be in the list, in fact, he should be rank higher. He worked hard for it, this is the fruit of his labor.
