Will Smith and Cameron Diaz Named Best-Paid Actors

Will Smith may not be the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air anymore, but he’s the king of cash at the box office.

The Hancock star brought in $80 million in 2007—making him the best paid actor in Hollywood—according to a new ranking from Forbes magazine.

Women in Hollywood aren’t doing too shabbily either. Cameron Diaz came in second place among females on the list, raking in $50 million last year.

Smith wasn’t the only man to bring home the bacon: Johnny Depp nabbed the No. 2 spot with a $72 million paycheck. Comedians Eddie Murphy and Mike Myers laughed all the way to the bank by raking in $55 million last year. The two tied for third place on the publication’s list.

Atonement leading lady Keira Knightley earned $32 million, and Jennifer Aniston pulled in $27 million, Forbes reports. Although they’re certainly not hurting, these actresses still only make half as much as men in Hollywood, the business magazine notes.

In terms of media personalities, Oprah Winfrey is still the queen of all media. Her earnings last year totaled $275 million.
