Angelina Jolie beats out Oprah, Beyonce and Madonna on the Forbes Celebrity 100 list

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on June 4, 2009 at 1:11am

A sultry interloper has ousted Oprah Winfrey from the top spot on the Forbes list of the celebrities with the most juice. Angelina Jolie, who placed third last year, dethroned the media maven despite the fact that Oprah was once again the highest earner on the list. Neither lady, however, made the cover. That honor went to Beyonce Knowles, who finished in fourth place behind a resurgent Madonna. "Beyonce is the perfect example of how to succeed in the business of being a celebrity," Forbes Senior Editor Matthew Miller said. "She became famous singing, and now is maximizing her earnings by singing, writing songs, endorsing products, selling clothes and staring in movies." Both Winfrey ($275 million) and Madonna ($100 million) made way more more than Jolie ($27 million) in the last 12 months, but the Forbes' celebrity power ranking is also based on exposure. Jolie garners loads of that as one of Hollywood's leading ladies - and as the better half of Tinsel Town's hottest couple. Her squeeze is Brad Pitt, who was number 9 on the list, right behind Jennifer Aniston, the actress he dumped for Jolie Source: New York Daily News
