TEAM ANISTON!

Okay so this is what the people at the old thread was whining for? Please. wtf is that star was ish? UGH. Good night

Jared made one a Jedi warrior and the other Darth Vader

Is Jared gonna put up Forbes crap lists? Every week Forbes has a new list. Why didn’t you put up the top earning actors that was out a couple of weeks ago Jared?

Kate Winslett is the best one of the bunch and she earns the least. Many of the other ones are getting to the point where it’s sickening to see them on screen. They need to retire.

Well, you ‘all were asking for a new thread. There ! Jared gave you one!!

WOW! Jared, Angie dressed as Darth Vader??? I guess all those poster saying you have been bought by Aniston’s PR team were right. Disgusting!!!!

At Fox’s age, Jolie was nominated for an emmy and had won a golden globe award. I can see Fox has a very long trip to travel for her career inorder to replace Jolie.

fraud is Aniston. @ 07/02/2009 at 1:06 am

Bogus list….
Why is Aniston “Friends” money used for earnings but not for Courtney Cox. CC makes more than 2 or, 5 million for Friends plus she was in movies last year. Thus like Just Jared, Forbes pumps up Aniston to be a bigger earning star than she really is.
.
I bet other actresses laugh at how much fake pr Aniston gets

@john:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The $16 million for Friends end this year IIRC.

Didn’t Kate Winslet make two Oscar worthy movies last year?
How could she have made only $2 million? This doesn’t make any sense to me.

lol jared. stay away from the star wars. sacred stuff. anyways the best way to look at all of this is that cate blanchett should be near the top right there with meryl and that jenwhocannotact should be at the bottom. i bet kate wins (lol…especially last year) is mad that scarjo makes more money than her. halle is going who the hell is anne hathaway i thought i was one of the greenlit actors. drew and renee are like what reese and nicole are ahead of us…those nonactors, get em. this whole thing is making me shake my head. sjp. gah. people must love syndication. long live reruns.

yeah how was this forbes one calculated because this looks very familiar, like the **** they always put out every year, but they usually explain how they come up with their numbers, and their methadologies are reliable. but sheesh. i don’t even want to go there and check this out because i’m pissed off. this is such a slap in the face to those who actually excel at their profession. f this list.

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
~~~~~~~~
I guess that is why Jen’s last movie is the BIGGEST BOMB of 2009 so far that hasn’t even made $1 million dollars and it has been in theaters for 7 weeks. Last weekend “Management” didn’t even make $10,000 dollars and it also had some really, really bad reviews.

Angie has a RED lightsaber jared. A *RED* lightsaber!!!

manny’s friends residuals were factored in.LMAF!!! maniston is a sit com hack earning MOST of her annual salary from FRIENDS!!! low-budget sh*t rom com “actress”

LOL, I LOVE the Star Wars pic of them!!! Good job JJ :-)
I love them hope so I am really, really happy to see both women at the top of the list, yay!!!!
What I AM wondering, however, is what the h e l l Sarah Jessica Parker is doing at #3??? She hasn’t made a decent movie besides SITC for a long time now, and even that was so great. Kate Winslet should be in that spot.

man, that aniston is a stalker. she follows jolie all the time.

If you consider the income from residuals from Friends, then you should take into account that 14m from baby pic’s are part of the $27m for Jolie…. ;-)

Goya’s right. The $16 Milion per year for 5 years for all of the Friends stars ends in 2009. So after this year, Jen only income will be from movies, which is why she’s trying to make 3 or more movies a year. So that she’s will still be making $20 + million a year. But with a super bomb like “Management” which cost $20 million to make and produce, didn’t even make $1 million, studios won’t be quick to pay her any more than $6 million per movie. Esp since she doesn’t have a big box office draw internationally, only sometimes here in the states, and only with an A-list leading men, or an ensamble cast.

@Just cause i can:

Forbes didn’t include the $14 million from the baby pics because People and Hello donated all of that money directly to charity. Brad & Angelina didn’t even see or touch any of that money.

I can’t for the life of me understand why Jennifer earns so much. Her movies are boring and one dimensional, she shouldn’t even be classified as an actress. Go back to TV Rachel, it’s the only role you know how to play!

IS JENNIFER GARNER WORKING FOR FREE?

Sleeping her way to the top seems to be paying off ! Take your pick as to the one I was referring to. No need to decide. They are equally guilty of being Hollywoods biggest sl-ts. Anyone who would think their lifestyle is something to emulate is lacking in common sense and moral fiber. These two idiots have a direct impact on todays young girls ! How would you like you daughters to act like them ?

no wonder hagiston has to generate “buz” for a tabloid relationship!!!!! UNFORTUNATELY when the fake press does not pan out manny ends up looking like a FOOL.

Meryl’s only third? they need to pay that woman more.
