    well - there's certainly a HUGE disconnect between 1 and 2 - but i think that it's really impressive to see the list. i think that we all assumed that brad and angie made more than that - but oh well. i'm surprised that tony parker and eva are on the list, and well..harrison ford and calista, that one was a surprise,but believable.

    I knew everyone that was on this list would be but was shocked by
    Judd Apatow and Leslie Mann being on the list.

    I think the reason there is a such a disconnect is that Jay-Z makes so much money in non-entertainment ventures, like Rocawear.

    lilkim, he sold RW. He has clubs, media company, and a marketing company and a suit line.

    Right, I thought he sold it this year, so the money he made from the sale would be included.

    Oh, I see now that he sold it in 2007, but he still has a stake in the company, just not the majority stake.

    Lilkim, right-he also got the deal from LiveNation this year. Plus the Basketball team and the new record label.

    So Jay-Z's earnings include one-time profits? What's the GAAP and non-GAAP numbers? And break out EBITDA.

    Good gravy.... $162 million? I wonder how much of that is Beyonce's. I know Jay-Z is into all kinds of ventures, so I can believe he's got some money coming in. The rest of the list doesn't surprise me very much.

    I thought Brad and Angelina made more than that, but I do know that they give a lot to charity. I wonder if that is the figure before donations or after?
