Angelina Jolie topped the field with live-in partner Brad Pitt landing at #9 narrowly edged out by his ex-wife Jennifer Aniston who is at #8. Last year's no. 1 Oprah trailed Jolie in second, followed by Madonna in third and Beyonce in fourth spot. Who says women can't rule the world?!
Oprah has topped the Celebrity 100 list three times — in 2005, 2007 and 2008. Tom Cruise broke her run in 2006. All-time basketball great Michael Jordan was the Celebrity 100's debut top placer in 1999. MJ is at #18 in this year's list followed by 2009 NBA MVP LeBron James.
The most powerful man in the world, US President Barack Obama, who led the Web rank, Presss rank and TV rank, had to settle for position #49 behind actor George Clooney and just eight positions ahead of Manny Pacquiao. Obama's measly earnings of $2M did him in! Well, that's the limitation of power!
Controversial American Idol judge Simon Cowell is at #25, well ahead of AI host Ryan Seacrest who is at #44 sandwiched between recently-retired The Tonight Show host Jay Leno (#43) and the star of Leaving Las Vegas, Nicholas Cage (#45).
Manny Pacquiao's 57th place ranking put him ahead of Boston Celtics superstar Kevin Garnett (#62) and a bevy of women's tennis aces Serena Williams (#67), Maria Sharapova (#76), Venus Williams (#77) and Ana Ivanovic (#90).
The top 10 in the Forbes 2009 Celebrity 100 list are:
1 Angelina Jolie
2 Oprah Winfrey
3 Madonna
4 Beyonce Knowles
5 Tiger Woods
6 Bruce Springsteen
7 Steven Spielberg
8 Jennifer Aniston
9 Brad Pitt
10 Kobe Bryant
