Everyone knows Oprah Winfrey is the highest paid television talent by far. But the rest of the list may surprise you.
Oprah makes an astonishing $260 Million a year to host her talk show.
Coming in second is the infamous Simon Cowell. He has made ‘American Idol’ what it is, but still only makes %17 percent of what Oprah does. Don’t get me wrong, I think anyone would take $45 million a year, even if they had to sit by Paula Abdul all the time.
The AARP of America must be giving this lady some ratings love, because Judge Judy Sheindlin is third making $30 million a year.
Rounding out the top 5 are Katie Couric (for now) with $15 million a year and Zach Braff. Can you believe this douche bag makes $6.3 million a year starring in ‘Scrubs.’ No wonder half of hollywood will humor him with one date.
