Forbes Magazine’s annual Celebrity 100 list ranks Johnny Depp #7 this year, up from #10 the year before; Johnny thus tops the list of the most powerful actors in the entertainment community, ahead of Tom Cruise (#10), Brad Pitt (#11), and Will Smith (#13). (Mel Gibson ranks #3 on the list for his producing and directing duties with THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST.)
The Forbes rankings are based on a combination of a celebrity’s earnings ($37 million for Johnny Depp last year) and press coverage. So who had the bucks and the buzz this year? According to Forbes, the ten most powerful celebrities are Oprah Winfrey (#1), Tiger Woods (#2), Mel Gibson (#3), George Lucas (#4), Shaquille O’Neal (#5), Steven Spielberg (#6), Johnny Depp (#7), Madonna (#8), Elton John (#9), and Tom Cruise (#10).
