What Celebs Earn--here's a hint: it's a lot more than us
Parade magazine's annual "What People Earn" issue just came out and here are a few jarring facts we've discovered:
1) Just because people make fun of you a lot and your only skill is interviewing celebrities and other wannabe celebrities, it doesn't mean you can't make yourself rich and famous (Ryan Seacrest, $12 million).
2) The Olsen twins had better watch their backs-there's a new girl in town (Miley Cyrus, $18.2 million vs. Mary-Kate Olsen's 17 million).
3) Everything Oprah touches turns to gold, even annoying people who give bad advice (Dr. Phil, $90 million).
4) Some stars get a lot of press coverage, but their wallets are still reasonably slim (Scarlett Johansson, $6 million).
5) Even a dog can make millions. Seriously, what gives. (Leona Helmsley's pooch, $12 million).
Other big money makers:
Oprah Winfrey: $260 million Tiger Woods: $115 million Steven Spielberg: $110 million Dr. Phil McGraw: $90 million 50 Cent: $33 million Gisele Bundchen: $33 million Miley Cyrus: $18.2 million Mary-Kate Olsen: $17 million Ryan Seacrest: $12 million Trouble (Leona Helmsley's dog): $12 million Eli Manning: $11.5 million Katherine Heigl: $11 million Jeff Foxworthy: $10 million Jessica Alba: $9 million Mariska Hargitay: $7 million Carrie Underwood: $7 million Scarlett Johansson: $5 million.
