Angelina Jolie's 2009 Salary Higher Than Jennifer Aniston's
But not by much.
The reports are in, and we love reading how much the stars make. The Hollywood Top 40 list of celeb salaries has come out, and Angelina Jolie has beat Jennifer Aniston...however their bank accounts appear to imitate life: they were fierce competitors.
Angelina Jolie made $21 million dollars in 2009, thanks mostly to her contract for Salt. The flick, which doesn't come out till summer, put $20 million in Angie's pocket. The rest reportedly came from royalties.
Jennifer Aniston came in just $1 million dollars behind Angelina at $20 million. Apparently Jen has to bust her tail a little more than Ange does, though, because this figure comes from her work on The Bounty Hunter and The Baster and $4 million in royalties from He's Just Not That Into You and Marley and Me combined.
Meanwhile, this should make you chuckle: Brad Pitt came in last place on the list with a 2009 salary of $13.5 million (that's like a tenth of what Simon Cowell makes -- how's that for perspective). The highest figure he saw last year was $4.5 million from Inglourious Basterds...that may help explain the broad-hopping!
.
We're kidding, Brad and Angie looked happy together last weekend...but here's a romance/finance situation that's less humorous: Tiger Woods' wife Elin Nordegren has fired her divorce lawyer. Get the story here.
