Oprah Winfrey, Angelina Jolie Named Hollywood’s Top Women
Oprah Winfrey and Angelina Jolie are the No. 1 women in entertainment, according to two lists released Friday by trade paper The Hollywood Reporter.
Winfrey topped the publication’s annual “Power 100″ list, which ranks the most influential women in Hollywood.
The media mogul was chosen “based on her dizzying array of Oprah-branded media and her immense cultural influence,” editor-in-chief Elizabeth Guider said in a statement Friday.
All of the other women in the top 10 were studio executives.
Meanwhile, Jolie — who came in No. 24 on the power list — topped The Hollywood Reporter’s annual ranking of the industry’s highest-paid actresses.
She earned $15 million for her role in the action flick “Wanted” and could receive $20 million to star in a possible sequel, said the trade paper.
Taking the No. 2 spot was Julia Roberts, followed by last year’s top earner, Reese Witherspoon.
