“These taste like wax.” *
Forbes released their list of the top earning women in prime time (which is why Oprah didn’t top the list). They included all sources of income. Radar reports:
Heading up the list is Trya Banks, with an estimated annual earnings of $30 million. Tyra earns the majority of her money from the hugely successful America’s Next Top Model and her daytime talk show as well as various TV cameos. Second on the list is Grey’s Anatomy cutie Katherine Heigl earning $18 million for her turn as a TV doctor as well as her role as leading lady in films such as The Ugly Truth.
The top ten is posted inside. No way are Tyra Banks and Katherine Heigl worth almost seven times as much as Tina Fey. That $48 million would be better spent trying to make six clones of Tina Fey and having them pillowfight. If there’s any money left over, I guess we could help cancer kids or something. But first, pillowfight.
- Tyra Banks – $30 million
- Katherine Heigl – $18 million
- Marg Helgenberger – $9.5 million
- Eva Longoria Parker – $9 million
- Mariska Hargitay – $8.5 million
- Julia Louis-Dreyfus – $8 million (tie)
- Maura Tierney – $8 million (tie)
- Tina Fey – $7 million
- Marcia Cross – $6.2 million
- Jennifer Love Hewitt – $6 million
* Yeah, I stole that from Jim Gaffigan.

One famous person makes a lot more money then another famous person? O NOES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh the humanity!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Who gives a fuck?
Seriously, and honestly, how does the fact that Heigl makes more money then Fey actually affect your life?
It doesn’t, other then giving you yet another excuse to prove what whiny self absorbed Gen X/GenY failed hipster shitsnorter you truly are. Thing is, you are actually giving Heigl even more publicity by posting this list.
wait… wasnt oprah in an episode of 30 Rock!? of course it ended up being some 13 year old black chick and tina fey was on drugs in the episode…. but oprah was still in it damnit.
Wait so Oprah didn’t top the list because, according to Radar, Forbes (and this blogger), it’s the list of top earning women in Prime-Time. Yet Tyra is at the top of the list partly because of her “day-time talk show?” So essentially, as long as the women appears in prime-time in any form, ALL of her earnings (from all sources) are included in this total? Moreover, the Oprah show replays in syndication on the same day in PRIME TIME on non-cable networks in most national markets; you think she doesn’t get a piece of that cash? Hence, this list is very decept….oh who gives a fuck.

It’s the 21 century man, no one likes assless women anymore.
Heigl’s last 3 movies made $1/2 billion worldwide to date. Its actually surprising she isnt top of the list. Anyone else on the list even have a movie career?
Marcia Cross…….
…a red-headed pussy pays well…..
…show it some more….
Hewitt makes LESS than Tina Fey??!!!!!!!!
She got bigger tits and a smaller ass than Fey……What kind of world is this?
Good for Maura Tierney. She seems like the most likeable one from this list.
Tyra Banks is the only one on that list i’ve actually bust a nut to, so she probably deserves to be No. 1.
Heigl won me over in My Father the Hero. Of course, she was 13 at the time and hadn’t learned how to be an incredible bitch yet.
But this list isn’t really fair. Sure, Heigl is on in primetime, but the bulk of her money comes from movies.
I have yet to see an ugly woman who makes $18 million per year. The most beautiful woman in the world? Oprah.
In Heigl’s defense, you must admit that she IS cute. She may be an insufferable cunt of a woman, but she’s an attractive insufferable cunt of a woman.
Funny, $18 million is how much I would pay to strangle that fucking cunt with her adopted retard baby.
I remember when she first showed up shaking her fat jugs in that terrible 100 Girls movie, and I thought, “This husky bitch is going places.” Damn my eye for talent.
Burnsy, I almost put a strike through part of the word “cutie” and then added something to get myself fired.
Tyra makes $30M/year? December 21, 2012 can’t get here fast enough.
Anybody else shiver when they read, “Grey’s Anatomy cutie Katherine Heigl”?
* Yeah, I stole that from Jim Gaffigan.
My God. Mother of God.
Jennifer Love-Hewitt is still in television?
Helgengerger is rolling in CSI syndication money.
Wow, Julia-Louis Dreyfus sure gets paid a lot of money for cancelled shows.
What is a Marg Helgenberger?
