News: Forbes Releases 2014 Top 5 Highest Paid Actresses List

It’s no secret that A-list actresses make a lot of money. But … who rakes in the most?
Forbes revealed the highest-earning actresses in Hollywood and we’re counting down who made it into the top five spots on the list.
5. Is a tie between Cameron Diaz and Angelina Jolie, both earning a total of $18 million in 2014. They've both had very busy years so far. Angelina had her return to the big screen after a three-year hiatus in the Disney film, Maleficent, and now she’s set to voice Tigress again in Kung Fu Panda 3 which is set to release December 23, 2015.  Cameron has had quite the busy year as well. She’s starred in two films, The Other Woman and Sex Tape, and will be playing Miss Hannigan in the highly anticipated flick, Annie, out December 19, 2014.
4. Gwyneth Paltrow slides in to the number four spot with an estimated $19 million. The blonde beauty made a pretty penny thanks to her role as Pepper Potts in Iron Man 3 as well as scoring endorsement deals with Hugo Boss and Max Factor, and working on her lifestyle site Goop.com.
3. Jennifer Aniston doesn’t have to worry about paying for her upcoming nuptials to Justin Theroux because she’s managed to make $31 million in 2014. Roles in We’re the Millers and Horrible Bosses have helped make her some dough. Being a spokeswoman for Smart Water and Aveeno have also helped her in making more than 30 mil this year.
2. Oscar-winning actress Jennifer Lawrence doesn't seem to have let fame go to her head, but it has gone to her bank account. According to Forbes, the 23-year-old made a whopping $34 million this year. Thanks to her role as Katniss Everdeen in the Hunger Games franchise films, X-Men: Days of Future Past, American Hustle, and many more, it’s safe to say that 2014 really is J.Law’s year!
1. Gravity star Sandra Bullock is the highest-earning actress of 2014 taking home an estimated $51m (£30m), according to the Forbes rich list.
The Oscar-winning film brought in $716m (£425m) in global box office takings and was a hit with critics.

1. Sandra Bullock - $51m (£31m)
