>>Fascinating that the most talented actress in the list except for Meryl Streep - Kate Winslet - earns the least.<<

TOTALLY AGREE, wth is up with that????

Jennifer and Angelina must be laughing their heads off at all the energy people put into wondering if they hate each other or which is “better” than the other. This IS hollywood after all. Hook-up’s here head south more often than not. Give it a few more months and there may be a complete set of players in the game.

Can you see Megan Fox with a Oscar?
….. ok Next…

ROTFLMAO. This is exactly what you people deserve for asking for a new thread for that bogus Forbes list. I’m not going to have any sympathy for anyone whining about the picture Jared used or anything else that came out of this Forbes crap. Guess y’all never heard, “Be careful what you ask for.”

Agreed, Shar#16. Aniston’s earnings are from Friends residuals so this list does not compare apples to apples. What’s sad about this list is there are Oscar winners and Oscar nominated talented actresses who made less than Chin so I guess that makes her one lucky SOB. She should be forever grateful to be part of a very popular TV series.

aww! it’s so cute to see all the Brangelina fans angry because they can’t accept Jennifer is pretty much as succesful as your dear Angelina.

”Mommy mommy!, it’s not fair, Jennifer is earning as much as Angelina” LOL! you guys are pathetic. and FYI, I have nothing agains tAngelina or Brad or anything…

John….Maniston produce movies that doesn’t make crap. Mismanagement has yet to reach a million dollars and she spent about 5-10 mil on it.

Jen movie earn less cause the movie she play less budget than Angie and her Friends loyalty will keep on going after Angie become old news..Fox is better version than Angie!!!

can angelina just go away and never return?? i’m tired of seeing that ****** old hags face

Can’t wait to see how Angelina just fades away and Megan Fox takes her place… just can’t wait!

Aniston is OK, and as many of you have said, she has a back up plan, she produces..she acts.. and she has the Friends money.

Anjelina Jolie is overrated both’ beauty, and acting-wise.

Morticia is past her sell by date.

jen will alwas be better paid and better value cause her movie low budget and she produce her own movies..and friends loyalty keep on making her money

lol. there is only one angelina jolie.
miss boobs and ass can never replace her - only in her fans wildest dreams!!!!

friends loyalty keep on making her money

- She may have a lot of money from her old sitcom but is she happy? no oscar, no lovelife, no children.

i have one thing to say and one thing only: angelina should NOT be at the top of that list. Why should she get more pay then actresses that are light years better than her? just because she may be prettiier? because she is not that well liked as an actress. but she is a person.

megan fox hot!!!! two time hottest woman on MAxim mag!!!
Jolie is old!!!
Aniston is ok..she make comedy,drama and has her own production company.and Friends plus Smart Water (she own the share)..and her Hollywood circle is powerful!!! she will keep on the list!!!

Salute to Meryn Streep!!! Great Actress with great pay check!!..She co produce the Mamma Mia..thats most of her money come from..you get better cut when you produce it!!!

Oh please! Angie is the top earner..period. And Chin looks like Yoda in that pic. Actually Yoda looks a little better while Angie looks like the Queen of the Galaxy that she is!

wow, both actresses are great, along with the rest on the list! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4wCeTJDbhHc

This list is way off or is based on data from like 2007. What has Scarlett Johansson done to get that payday besides ad campaigns and how is Katherine Heigl not on the list when she made $6M on EACH of her last two films in addition to her Grey’s Anatomy salary?

oh dear….here we go….an angelina AND jennifer thread.
wow jared is a smart man isn’t he!

bruce wayne bish! @ 07/02/2009 at 12:39 am

who would pay maniston 25 mill?!? she’s never carried a film, all her movies have funny leading men who carry her.
.
and who the hell would pay nicole kidman anything?!? all of her movies flop, bomb, tank! she’s poison.

The magazines get profit when they put them against each other.There always be crazy fans that fight over this.

2 - Jennifer Aniston, $25 million ?????????? for hair?

She gets paid MORE for movies that SUCK while OSCAR winners get paid less??? ………………………….. no wonder Hollywood is in trouble.
