Forbes Announces Highest Paid Hollywood Actresses (PHOTOS)
Forbes has released its annual list of Hollywood's highest paid actresses, and the winner is.... Sandra Bullock.
Although Sandy's personal life may have hit a bump in the road this year, her finances never looked better. The Oscar winner cashed in on her stellar performance in The Blind Side by opting to receive a portion of the film's profits rather than a paycheck upfront, a gamble that definitely paid off. The film has (to date) made $320 million, and only cost $40 million to make. Now, she's #1 on Forbes' list with $56 million last year.
Kristen Stewart rounded out the top 10 with a respectable $12 million gain last year, mostly from the success of Eclipse. She's also the youngest on the list by over ten years at age 20.
Click through our gallery to see which actresses made the top 10, and tell us who you think deserved it most in the comments section.


amazing actress i love her!!
u deserve it sandra... great job
exuse me??hasnt any hits movies??? u just kidding me... if she is famous its because first of all she CAN ACT second of all she a TALENTED woman third of all every movie she made has his own charachter ans shes very good at what she do and every movie she made was successfull... so please choose ur words..
not because she made 25 million $ ur goanna say this abt her,.,. she deserve every penny and shes a talented woman... other wise she didint get paid so much.. so easy on the woman... she deserve every penny of it..
i love u u deserve every single penny
i love her shes such a talented woman.. she deserve more tha this
She looks like a freakin man!
Absolutely, ANGELINA JOLIE the best ever..she must be paid even more with all the difficult and high risk stunts she did in her movie SALT..she is the good in all kinds of movie genre..
That's so unfair- Kristen Stewart can't even act. Twelve million dollars? That's ridiculous. Please die. Just go kill yourself. So I wouldn't have to.
She actually cant act. If you put together all her movies and actually watch them. She acts the same in every single one. she doesn't know how to change characters. shes just acting like Kristen in everything. So all of you stop sticking up for the damn butch. 12 million if friggen ridiculous.
kristen stewart is beautiful actress but she is not a good actress
Yah u right mate emma watson make better than her they're both great they just have different styles.
Meryl is the best! I would give her all the 16 academy awards! She deservs all of them! I wish she lived at least another 100 years! amen!
she is a gr8 actress so i wuld shut up if i was u lol .. just because she's hot . doesnt mean she can act for sh*t, like anna kournikova - shes hot but cant play for sh*t. so stop judging her acting with ur man parts
if twilight never existed , neither would she in the film world, shes a crap actor, in a crap role and its all she will ever do in her life, more power to her tho for cashing in Yea, her nearly 20 other roles would not exist if it weren't for Twilight... moron. FYI, she's done many great movies. Several of her recent non-Twilight performances have garnered quite a bit of critical praise and none of those roles she got from being in Twilight. So kindly shut your ignorant mouth.
Her and the Twilight franchise is a waste of creation.

She has one character and thats its. So if you want to say she is a good actress, fine she is with that one character she can play.
I won't comment on her acting since every movie I've seen her in is the same character. A young girl that is attracted to an older guy. As far as twilight is concerned, is does suck.
Alot of Twihards commenting. Twilight sucks.
what would I do with 56 million... hummmmm
KRISTEN STEWART IS AMAZING ! I'M GLAD SHE'S MAKING THAT MUCH MONEY SHE DESERVES IT!!!!
She smoks pot ever day not even hot and can act but still she get 12 mill this world suck
i saw her latest movie, "welcome to the rileys" and she CAN act. i believe she'll get even better and has a chance to win some major awards. she is the total package: beauty, brains, talent, very genuine as a person and as an actor...worth every penny!
yeah i believe it. i would pay to watch her beautiful face. she CAN act. i always enjoy her movies regardless what role she plays and who she's acting with...she is a real movie star!
can someone explain why? she hasn't had any hits movies. she acts the same in all her films? she's never carried a film on her own... i don't get why keeps making these movies that don't really make any movie...maybe a couple and only because she was with a major box office star...still like her though but wouldn't pay to watch her movies...only on cable or dvd.
What I like most about Kristen is she dose not give a sh*t about what you or I think about her. Her talented career will speak for itself and as for money, I don't think that it affects her at all, she is the same person she was when she started.How would this affecf you and how would you act, ah no one cares, Is that what bothers the haters,
Sandra made the money on the Proposal. She was the Executive Producer on the Movie. It was made for 40 milion and made $317 million.
shes retarded now i guess bein famous gos to ur head
yep a sad old mum she is not old! she look anazind for her age!
i don't agree!! i loooove her and she is my favorite!! i think she is amazing ang funny and that's who she is and she just bring it to soo many diffrent characters!! every character may look the same but it's not the same character i's really her own charm!!
kristen stewart is an extremely talented young artist. she has taken on some very challenging roles and done well portraying them. at age 20 she has had to deal with an unprecedented amount of media attention just waiting for her breathe the wrong way. along with that we have a society full of jealous people who believe that any talented young artist needs to be chased, harrassed, and hated because they're good at what they do. why???? leave the kid alone-let her keep doing what she loves to do!
That's so unfair- Kristen Stewart can't even act. Twelve million dollars? That's ridiculous. Yah u right mate emma watson make better than her
Hey with the stupid haters saying cameron diaz is at the end of her carrer, where are they now???? she's just beggining, and she won't stop she loves her job, and think it's the best in the world, that's why she deserves it.
to all the stupid people who does'nt like that she's one of the highest paid actresses ,you can go to hell right now cause we dont give adamm about you'r opinion,and she rocks
SJP!!! You have to be kidding ME!!! She can NOT ACT!
she is the best actress!!! she can really act, not like some other ''actresses''
i agree with all of you
okay she may not be her best in twilight but every other one of her movies, she's a really good actress! so eff-off people.
That's so unfair- Kristen Stewart can't even act. Twelve million dollars? That's ridiculous. It's always the same story. People read something about famous people, and than when they read how much they make money....they are jealous, ridiculous jealous! Kristen can act! Amazing! It's amazing to see how she brings a character alive!
Oh my god, she really is not a good actress. All she can do, is wearing extravagant dress, trying to look like 25 year old girl. But she really can not act. agreed

Sandra , Meryl or kristen? because i will laugh at your face if kristen is the one you're talking about...She rarely wears dresses and she is not extravagant or slutty..And Meryl and Sandra are 2 awesome women ,so what's your point?
