    The Olsens are split - how sad. I am astonish how much the make, then again they do pay their own prices. I just need about a 1/3 of what they make. Heck, I'll take half - if I am dreaming I should at least be a little greedy.

    Well, MK did score that role on Weeds as the weed-lovin' free-spirited Jesus freak (and I mean that as a term of endearment). Although I cannot imagine that her paycheck could've been all that impressive for her work there.

    Would that paycheck have been factored into her salary from last year?

    (I dunno. I'm sure the twins invest differently and they've certainly been public about their professional independence from each other in recent years.)

    I can't decide which is worse... Miley Cyrus or Leona Helmsley's dog being on this list.

    I wouldn't know what to do with 18 million at 15 years old. Wow! It's crazy that Oprah makes so much for being a judgmental b*tch who won't let anyone talk on her show and edits stuff out if she doesn't like what they say.
