Forbes has released this year's Celebrity 100 list, ranking the world's most powerful celebrities from June 2008 to June 2009.
Angelina Jolie has made it to the top list, edging media maven Oprah Winfrey on the no. 1 spot for most powerful celebrities and snatching from Jennifer Aniston (not again!) the top spot for the most powerful actresses.
Angelina Jolie has made an estimated earning of $27 million last year, courtesy of her action movies Kung Fu Panda, Wanted, and the soon-to-released spy thriller Salt. The media attention from the birth of her twins, humanitarian efforts, and endless gossips and fashion citations have also contributed to her ranking.
Angelina Jolie's husband Brad Pitt ranked 9th on the list, thanks to constant media attention of his family life with the most powerful woman in the world and oh, his Academy Award nomination for doing the lead role in hit flick The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.
Brad Pitt's former wife Jennifer Aniston is on the 8th spot with a $25 million-earning from romantic comedies Marley and Me and He's Just Not That Into You and from the media gossips on her on-again, off-again romance with John Mayer.

Forbes' 100 Most Powerful Celebrities is measured based on money and fame. Money is estimated from earnings made on films, television shows, endorsements, books and other entertainment ventures. Fame is calculated through Web hits on Google Blog Search, TV/radio mentions on LexisNexis, overall press mentions on Factiva, and the frequency of a celebrity's image appearance on the cover of 25 consumer magazines.
This 2009, Forbes' Celebrity 100 list couldn't help but admire La Jolie:
