Josie Grossie Is The Most Overpaid Movie Star In Hollywood, So Says Forbes
It's another day, which means there's another list from the professional list makers at Forbes and this time they're pulling some OCCUPY HOLLYWOOD shit on millionaire movie stars.
Forbes took their highest paid actor list and compared it with the grosses for all the movies they starred in within the past 5 years. They had to star in at least 3 movies (animated movies were not counted) that opened in 500 theaters or more. They took what each of their movies made (including first year DVD sales) and added it together. Then Forbes took what the actor made for each movie and added that shit together. Then they divided those two totals. You know, I don't even know what I just typed. That mess is like a foreign language to me. I know, you come to Dlisted for dick cheese jokes and I'm giving you math! Let's just assume that Forbes got higher than a C in 6th grade math, unlike me, and came up with the correct numbers.
You'd think that Katherine Heigl would be #1 through #10, but that bitch isn't even on the list. Drew Barrymore took the top loser spot and Tommy Girl took the second from the bottom (wink wink). Here's the entire list:
1. Drew Barrymore - $0.40 on every $1
2. Eddie Murphy - $2.70 on every $1
3. Will Ferrell - $3.50 on every $1
4. Reese Witherspoon - $3.55 on every $1
5. Denzel Washington - $4.25 on every $1
6. Nicolas Cage - $4.40 on every $1
7. Adam Sandler - $5.20 on every $1
7. Vince Vaughn - $5.20 on every $1
9. Tommy Girl - $6.35 on every $1
10. Nicolas Kidman - $6.70 on every $1
If you asked my advertisers what they get for every $1 they put into Dlisted, they'd probably say hate mail and 2am e-mails from me begging them to send me their products for quality control purposes (that last part only applies to vibrator companies), so Drew Barrymore has one up on me.
Thanks to the Sir Isaac Obviouses at Forbes for letting us know that some millionaire movie stars ain't worth shit on a shit road. But I'd much rather see a list of Hollywood's most underpaid stars, which I'm assuming would include Betty White, everybody in Showgirls, the "I've Got No Legs" dude from Kids and Donna Wilkes from the Angel movies.


this math is too complicated for my brains. yet the list makes sense...huh

Maybe it was a tie?

I'm here to kick ass and drink tea. And I'm all out of tea.
except Drew Barrymoore, every one in the list is a great investment: for $100 on Eddie Murphy,you will win $270,it's good for me.

Happy bday PSL woot woot we scorpios rock!!
#10 is Nicolas Kidman? Who is that? Sounds like a combination of Nicolas Cage and Nicole Kidman.
Money aside, I'd much rather watch a marathon of Drew's old movies over most Hollywood folk. Just hearing 'Josie Grossie' makes me want to pull out "Never Been Kissed" followed by "50 First Dates", "The Wedding Singer", "Ever After","Grey Gardens", "He's Just Not That Into You" and has anybody watched "Everybody's Fine"? That movie had me in TEARS. Then for dessert... "ET". That movie alone wipes her off this list for me.

It looks like we're all underestimating Nicole's earning power. Take The Golden Compass for example. Box office was disappointing in the US, but the film grossed $372,234,864 internationally, against a budget of 180 mil. So, Nicole's frozen face managed to double the studio's investment and then some! Imagine her earning power if she had full use of her facial muscles again!

Seriously though, over here kids leave primary school at the age of 10 or so, and enter high school/secondary school which goes on for 6 years. We say 1st year, 2nd year, etc. instead of "grade".

On Topic, Nicole Kidman is distracting to me, not just because of her freezer burned face, but because she can rarely keep the Australian accent out of her voice. It's always popping up in all of her work.
EC, yep! I love how Kim K lies about having work done. Please bitch, there are PICTURES!

PSL,
Celebitchy says, "(Paris and Nicky) look like they’re just drunk and being stupid to me. It’s a weird thing to do with your sister, but whatever. They’re not tongue kissing or anything."
Funny, because I always thought that they were using an (unseen) big, black double-headed dildo in the pic.

Lu32Cy,
I questioned only because in the states high school is typically 10th grade through 12th grade, some places are 9th-12th... So I was questioning the SIX YEARS in high school.

The thing with Kidman is that she's in alot of those artsy independent movies that are really only made as Oscar bait. So she's pretty great in them but they made dick at the box office. But she still gets paid the same because she's Nicolas Kidman. (fucking genius, MK)
Then all those comedy douches on this list are way past their prime but still make bookoo bucks. Like who's gonna go see that stupid Adam Sandler movie where he plays his own sister? Nobody, that's who.
Citizenstrange, if I remember correctly there was a list like that a few years ago and the female on the list was Anne Hathaway, because of Alice in Wonderland. I think (???) the male was Johnny Depp.

The thing is Nicole can actually be a really good actor when she wants to. Not so much since her face doesn't move anymore but there was a time when she was hitting em out of the park.
I still get turned on when I think of her in The Birthday Girl.
*****************
She was great in Rabbit Hole and also Fur, the Diane Arbus Story. I actually like Kidman a lot. Cold Mountain was good as well.
===========
I liked Nicole in "Far and Away". She was so young and pretty then with those red cascading curls.
so many people ask about my avie....so now you all can really see it! That whole set of pics is hilarious.
