Whatever you think of the list, the fact that 3 out the top 5 (and 4 out of the 10) are African-American shows that we've come a long, long way.
Good Angelina has way more cl***.
Madonna should be number one, Her Majesty rules the concert circuts.
anyone who thinks Angelina Jolie has more power than Oprah, isn't living on Earth.
She sure has TABLOID power. Keeps getting knocked up!of all Pitt's "squeezes" I like Gwynneth the best!
Whatever HATERS! Agelina has done more good to the world than Oprah. Women are so jelous of Angelina's looks, its sad.
good point jill
The list is a joke.
I know, its such a joke, Madonna should be number one, then Britney, GAGA and then Angelina, Oprah should be in the lower top 10s, I dont think her show is number one anymore.
THIS IS WRONG... I DONT THINK THIS IS RIGHT!! ADOPTING KIDS FROM 3RD WORLD COUNTRIES DOESNT HELP THE WORLD!!
