Forbes has come out with yet another list. This is their annual Most Overpaid Actor in Hollywood list. Eddie Murphy got top honors with the #1 spot. Eddie’s latest movie, ‘Tower Heist,’ with Ben Stiller, didn’t perform well, only managing to double its $75 million budget. Forbes calculates that for every $1 Eddie earns, only $2.30 is returned at the box office.
Katherine Heigl got the second spot. Forbes reports for every $1 she earns, only $3.20 is returned at the box office. Surprisingly, Reese Witherspoon came in at #3. Also surprising, Sandra Bullock and Jack Black rounded out the top five spots. I admit, I’m a little confused by this reasoning. As long as a celeb isn’t losing money, isn’t that a plus? All of these celebs bring in more than they make. Isn’t that the point? Anywhere, here’s Forbes’ list of the top 9 Most Overpaid Actors in Hollywood.
- Eddie Murphy
- Katherine Heigl
- Reese Witherspoon
- Sandra Bullock
- Jack Black
