Tom Cruise Tops Forbes Power List
Am I the only person to be a bit terrified by this? Tom Cruise is a major wacko and he’s the most powerful Celebrity? I’m SO scared!
This isn’t the first time Tom topped the list though, he also did it in 2001.
"He’s one of the few guaranteed bankable stars," Goldman said. "No one in Hollywood can negotiate the kind of salary he gets."
With an estimated income of $67 million last year, Cruise wasn’t the top earner, but his couch-hopping antics on The Oprah Winfrey Show, his dismissive comments about Brooke Shields’s postpartum depression and his whirlwind romance with Katie Holmes worked to his advantage in the past 12 months. Last year he was ranked 10th. Via People
Ok I get it now. To be most powerful you need to knock up a young starlet (wrecking her career), jump on Oprah’s couch and insult medicated crazy people. It’s quite an interesting equation and I don’t quite get how it makes someone powerful.
Here are the top 10 of Forbes’ list
- Tom Cruise
- The Rolling Stones
- Oprah Winfrey
- U2
- Tiger Woods
- Steven Spielberg
- Howard Stern
- 50 Cent
- The cast of The Sopranos
- Dan Brown
