1 Oprah Winfrey $165 million
She has a failing magazine and network. Plus she does not have her show anymore. How in the Hell did she still make that much? :P
2 Michael Bay $160 million
Makes sense.
3 Steven Spielberg $130 million
Not because of his movies, but he has games and tv shows now as well.
4 Jerry Bruckheimer $115 million
Yep.
5 Dr. Dre $110 million
I am guessing off royalties and the occassional beat that he produces for someone?
6 Tyler Perry $105 million
No idea how. His movies are not that big.
7 Howard Stern $95 million
Makes sense
8 James Patterson $94 million
200 books a year, makes sense.
9 George Lucas $90 million
From what? The Tv show, books, and putting movies in 3D?
10 Simon Cowell $90 million
Still? X-Factor must be bigger than I thought!
11 Glenn Beck $80 million
Huh?
12 Elton John $80 million
From where?
13 Tom Cruise $75 million
Ok, yeah.
14 Dick Wolf $70 million
The hell is this?
15 Rush Limbaugh $69 million
Color me surprised!
16 Manny Pacquiao $67 million
Holy Shit!
17 Dr. Phil McGraw $64 million
From his role in Scary movie? That show of his is daytime garbage. How in the hell do these people do this?
18 Donald Trump $63 million
Investments and that show. Investments should not count, and neither should he.
19 Ryan Seacrest $59 million
He is everywhere. This guy works hard for a measily 60 million.
20 Britney Spears $58 million
Concerts and Cd's and Magazine covers. Makes sense.
Anyone know what ioi made this year?
