i dont get the ranking either. Oprah is the only one i would say holds any power in there. Who listens to rest?

JLO is NOT the most powerful celebrity in the world.

Her latest album flopped massively, and she hasnt had a successful film since 2005.

This list is a joke.

looks at OP.

are we sure this isn't the list of most powerful women celebs?

Very very weird list. Who even cares about Tom Cruise these days?

America. :)

You do know she is a judge on American Idol and is getting paid up the ass to do that and commercials as well right? She also had another talent search show with Marc Anthony earlier in the year.

Tom cruise has two films slated for 2012. He doesn't exactly accept small scripts.

if the list is for the whole world, no wonder ellen or how her name is isn't so high because no one knows her in other countries, except maybe uk or so. but jennifer lopez as example is a star on the whole world (no clue about asia but at least in europe and america). oprah is well known on the whole planet as well. not that they has her show in europe or so but at least everyone here knows her.

one of her singles was the most successful in some countries last year. but no clue what the name was^^ and she is a famous face for l'oreal as example. but i would never put her on place one that's right.

If the youtube audience is the future. Then the world is doomed :(
