With high-profile roles in movies like Wanted, Changeling, and Kung Fu Panda, Angelina has been raking it in, this year packing in a $27 million profit.
Oprah is, however, still the biggest earner – with $275 million – while Madonna, Beyoncé, Tiger Woods, Bruce Springsteen and Steven Spielberg came in third to seventh place.
Brad and Angelina, meanwhile, have vehemently denied recent reports that they are imminently to announce a split, with their rep calling the rumours, printed by the National Enquirer, ‘absolutely not true’.
