Reese, Angelina Lead List of Highest-Paid Actresses
Reese Witherspoon ranked number one on The Hollywood Reporter’s annual list of the highest-paid actresses. The 31-year-old actress commands $15 million to $20 million a movie.
Angelina Jolie came in second, and Cameron Diaz came in third with a $15 million-per-movie requirement.
While Angelina and Reese are now asking for $15 million-$20 million per movie, they frequently agree to “no-quote deals” — deals in which the studios actually pay them far less than their usual fee (usually when they take on supporting roles).
Here’s The Hollywood Reporter’s top ten list:
1. Reese Witherspoon — $15 million-$20 million
2. Angelina Jolie — $15 million-$20 million
3. Cameron Diaz — $15+ million
4. Nicole Kidman — $10 million-$15 million
5. Renee Zellweger — $10 million-$15 million
6. Sandra Bullock — $10 million-$15 million
7. Julia Roberts — $10 million-$15 million
8. Drew Barrymore — $10 million-$12 million
9. Jodie Foster — $10 million-$12 million
10. Halle Berry — $10 million
Stars climbing up the pay scale include Katherine Heigl, Rachel McAdams and Jennifer Garner. Which other actresses do you think should be on this list?

I have nothing against Reese and I’m glad to see that she claimed the #1 spot. Good for her. Despite the ridiculous term, people should be calling her ‘America’s Sweetheart’, not that washed up..no talent..no range..fraud..Aniston.
Alot of great French and English actresses should be paid more.
They couldn’t give us the top 25 ? CHEAP!
Where are Catherine Zeta-Jones and Cate Blanchett on that list?
There you are, Yes, I have given shout-outs to you in the other threads. How was your sister’s birthday? I hope she enjoyed herself. I hope you have a nice weekend too.
Me, I have to put up the Christmas tree this weekend and also go to my sister’s surprise birthday party, plus a dance tonight (and I have finals on my income tax course Monday so I need to concentrate studying). Really busy busy busy. But I still find time to blog! (he he he)

ANGIE IS HER OWN PUBLICIST.
===============================
People like you slay me. Once you are proven wrong, you twist yourself inside out to come up with some BS to try and be right.
As many of us have stated Angie doesn’t have a publicist and nothing you say or do will change that!
There are 2 numero uno’s both Reese and Angie demand the same amount of money per movie if you go by the numbers written. If you read the article on US weekly website they would like to mislead people that Angie makes 8M, they should have stated that she worked for only 2.5 days but being arze I am not surprised.
Congratulations Angie, between her and Brad, Plan B and their commercials am sure they are doing very well financially and professionally.
I forgot to add that as usual US weekly has a poll on Angie again, it is their weekly ritual an Angelina Jolie poll or else the week will not be over.
Thanks Jared for the new thread and the new format. I really like it! Now the only thing that is missing is the ‘ignore’ button! :lol: :lol:
Go Angie go!!!
Hiya BAMPZS Fans! Happy TGIF :-)
Hello to AG, aeon, yes, briseis, PT, 4Q (where have you been?), Lady G and to every JP fan who is here now.
#87: Angie is in the list because Angie can act and she is known all over the world. What part of she’s a star do you not understand?
You are too dense and too full of venom to see that the lady has star power. She is a good actress and is very versatile so if producers and directors have faith in her then that means something, doesn’t it? It’s all in the part that they give her. She can do justice to any role unlike some people we know who is stuck on one character and whose only great feat is her hairstyle.
50 bampzs #1 @ 11/30/2007 at 11:01 am They should pay our Angie that much or more because of her popularity and fame. They don’t put Angie on the most smart celebrity list for nothing. Way to go Angie! We love you.

ITA. Among the ten AJ is the only one with BEAUTY combined with BRAIN. Congrats Angie!

Ignore those. Angelina’s fans really are not the type to be interested in polls. It’s so juvenile. Well then many of Angelina’s teen fans are interested in all that but really….
#102: Tell that to the English and French filmmakers as they pay these women’s salaries. The only ones who know them are their own countrymen and some Americans and Canadians.
real tita,
Yes, I shall. Thank you.
#104: Probably nabbed the #11 and #12 on the list. They should have made it top 15 or 20. Then maybe other people will find who they’re looking for.
Chiquitita @ 11/30/2007 at 12:10 pm How much does Jennifer Aniston make per picture nowadays?
************************************
I think Aniston lowered her fee to around US$ 5 m, thats why she has gotten movies offers lately. She was paid US$8m for TBU.
Angie is in demand all the time, her movies are with substance, no doubt she gives the producers more money in return, way you go Angie. Where are you , Brad & the kids? I hope, you are all having a blast with each other specially with your 4 broods. God bless you all.
Yay Angie!
To all my fellow Brangelina’s - Let’s take over the Female First Brad and Angie forum.
woot Good going Angie….
That’s wonderful..
hmmm Intersting list..
Good to see Jodie Foster still in the top ten.. I have always been a Fan.
#116 Virgo: I think Aniston lowered her fee to around US$ 5 m, thats why she has gotten movies offers lately. She was paid US$8m for TBU.
Ha ha ha! Her rate is going down, while Katherine Heigl, a young, upcoming romcom actress, her rate is going up up up. Good for Angie that she did not do much romcoms but started with scifi, drama, branched into action, and dark comedy, and now can do most of them with ease.
Angie only actress on that list can play any role.
I can’t believe Aniston is only getting $5-$8 mil per film now. That seems really low.
#74: Reality sucks, doesn’t it Zack? Your idol is in a whole different list from these women. Huvane couldn’t manipulate the real numbers this time cause it will be too obvious.
Funny but I bet Eva Longoria’s ranking would even be above her if they ever publish the complete list of salaries for all the actresses.
Reese lied about getting $29 Million for “Our Family Trouble” - movie she’ll produce one day (well, maybe!).
REESE IS A LYING PR *****!
WAY TO GO ANGIE! That’s awesome, and she’s worth every penny.
669- I love Shiloh:
Hey, how are you? I saw your comment in the last thread. :) I buy People magazine sometimes if there’s something interesting, but I mostly just read it every week.
