I am a little surprised Angelina is so high as I can't remember her doing anything substantial movie wise in a while. I guess the Pitt thing gets her up there. I am surprised Tiger Woods only go a 1 for press mentions, he always seems to be in the news, but maybe that is because i am a sports junkie.

^ Angelina is beating Brad by miles in that one. I guess she is a pretty savvy business woman. I can't recall any big movies of hers lately either, but doesn't she have her own production company? Maybe that's bringing in the cash.

I'm kind of surprised The Police are still making so much money.

^ The Police I can see because they hadn't toured together in ages so they probably raked in cash and publicity from that.

Angelina I don't get, it says she only made 14m last year in income its a far cry from some of the people well behind her like Simon Cowell at 70+m!

Penny

^ Well, for web hits, TV and Press mentions - that probably got her there .
