  This just in from the Dept. of News That's Not About Michael Jackson

Hey, did you guys hear that Michael Jackson died?

Hahaha. I kid.

This is not a blog about Michael Jackson. This is a blog about beautiful rich women.

Forbes.com has released its annual list of Hollywood ladies who rake in the most moola.

Topping the ranks of people to envy is none other than Miss Angelina Jolie.

Jolie was Hollyweird's top-earning leading lady last year, pulling in an impressive $27 million.

Her nearest competitor? Jennifer Aniston. (uhhhh ... awkward.)

Aniston came in as second fiddle to Jolie--again, but don't go shedding any tears for everyone's favorite "Friend."

She still brought home $25 million.

Third on the list of female Tinsletown earners is Meryl Street. She netted a healthy sum of $24 million, mostly because of her role in "Mamma Mia!" (and her undisputable awesomeness.)

Sex and the Salary's Sarah Jessica Parker and Cameron Diaz (not sure what she was in this year, but whatever) rounded out the top five.

Instead of rummaging through their purses (which would have been a far more interesting endeavor) Forbes consulted with industry types to estimate what the actresses were paid for their roles.

They also considered product endorsements.

Still, Hollywood is most definitely still a town run by dudes, for dudes. The top-earning actor, Harrison Ford, put Jolie to shame, earning a whopping $65 million in the same time period.

Meh.

What a way to make a living.

Why does the media continue to compare Angelina Jolie and Jennifer Aniston? OMG it's soooooo stupid! Do you really care? Does anyone? Find some actual entertainment news please. Otherwise find a different job, cuz this is seriously stupid.

Wow, Mary ... ummm .... I'm sorry? Perhaps there are "smarter" blogs somewhere else?
