Angelina nabs 'queen of Hollywood' title from Reese Witherspoon

Angelina Jolie has long established herself as a woman who gets what she wants, so it's not overly surprising that she's yanked the crown from Reese Witherspoon to become Hollywood's highest paid actress, charging up to $15 million a movie.

Reese, who according to the Hollywood Reporter was the highest earning movie actress last year, was given her first big boost up the golden ladder by bimbo franchise Legally Blonde, but it was action films like Wanted that has tipped the balance for Angie.

Reese slipped down to third place behind Julia Roberts, while further down the list in eight place was Jennifer Aniston. 'Scraping' a mere $8 million per movie, or almost half of what Angie gets for her acting efforts, that must have felt like yet another slap in the face for poor Jen.

Angelina is a *** and home wrecker!who cares what she does or how much she gets.There are real issues out there in the world to worry about then worrying about who gets voted the stupid hollywood queen...Wake up people,be careful of what you worhip beceause thats what becomes, what drives your life!!
hey does anyone else think they got the worst photos in the world to use in this article....
I think it is great! You go girls, who cares if ange is paid more then Jen she has lots of kids to feed anyways and besides I am sure I would be more then happy taking home Jen's pay packet even if it is not the most money. You never know who will make the top of the list next year!
Come on get over it if these two can act i will run naked through the streets for 15 mil lol.
yepp. right i think reece should have stayed there, but you know things happen. $15 million is a lot so is 8 million for someone in eighth some people don't even get that in a lifetime..
=O 15 million for a movie... thats bullsh*t compared to 10 bucks an hour at macas.. (lol ok i lie, i wish it was 10 bucks an hour...) pfft and im pretty sure flipping burgers takes more brain than looking pretty for a camera... Sighs the worlds so un fair...
One of the things that really does annoy me about these so-called "Queens of Hollywood" is that there not based on the acting ability at all. There based on how much an actress (or actor) can "command" and are really only based on people seeing the movie, and really are people going too see movies like "Wanted" and "Lara Croft" soley based on "acting" ability? I'm sure Angelina is a fine actress...but is she really the Queen of Hollywood? Is she REALLY the best actress there is?
Don't get me wrong, Reese Witherspoon is cute and pleasant and wholesome but, aside from Walk the Line, she is usually in no-brainer comedies or romantic comedies and isn't what I would consider a serious actress - how she could ever have been the highest earning female in Hollywood is beyond me. jennifer Anniston - $8million is over priced, She is a sitcom queen. Angelina is an extremely talented actress who has had some very serious, creative roles. Go Angelina!
I prefer Angelina loved her Tombraider movies and think she should do another 10 points to Angelina
Anyone else find her totally hypocritical trying to be a humanitarian and having a "rainbow" family - but insisting on $15mill to create lets face it another average movie where you get to see her flashing more boob and ***! Why not do movies with substance for free if we're that caring about the world?
