Angelina Jolie is more powerful than beau Brad Pitt, according to Forbes' annual Power List, which ranks celebrities on money and fame.
Oprah Winfrey topped the the list for the second year in a row with a media empire that earned her $275 million.
Pitt's ex Jennifer Aniston came in at No. 17.
Notable newcomers included Hills star Lauren Conrad (#97), Sex and the City's Sarah Jessica Parker (#72), singer/designer Gwen Stefani (#63) and Tina Fey (#99).

Miley Cyrus (#35); Zac Efron (#92), and the Jonas Brothers (#89) accounted for teens on this year's list.
Celebs that fell off the list? New mom Jessica Alba, Jessica Simpson, Scarlett Johansson and Adam Sandler.
Heidi Klum, who graces the cover of the magazine, opened up about getting dissed early on in her modeling career. (See Klum and other stars in bikinis here.)
"My booker said I wasn't good enough [for Victoria's Secret] and I said, 'It's great that you think that, but I want them to tell me that,' Klum told Forbes.
She also talked about dabbling in acting, saying, "As a model, you never get taken seriously, and maybe you shouldn't."
