Angelina Jolie has topped Forbes magazine's annual list of Hollywood's Top-Earning Actresses after raking in an impressive $27 million between June 2008 and June 2009. And Ange will, no doubt, take some satisfaction from beating her partner Brad Pitt’s ex-wife Jennifer Aniston into second place.
 
In a statement, the magazine said: "Much of Angelina's earnings came from her share of the profits on Wanted, but she also scored a fat upfront cheque for Salt, an action film originally slated to star Tom Cruise, in which Jolie plays a CIA agent who is accused of being a Russian spy."
 
Mamma Mia star Meryl Streep was placed third with an income of $24 million, while 'Sex and the City' actress Sarah Jessica Parker came fourth with $23 million in earnings.
 
The magazine compiled its annual list after speaking to agents, managers, producers and lawyers. Money earned from clothing, perfume or accessories lines was also taken into account.
 
As usual, the actresses earned significantly less than their male counterparts. This year's top-earning actor Harrison Ford earned $65 million, a whopping $38 million more than Angelina.
