Money Bag

Forbes love making top lists and I just love to see celeb names on them. It must be a part of human nature to have an itch to know how much other people earn, to see if you’re getting financially better or worse than somebody else, to see who manages to reach the top and who ultimately fails.

So Forbes created a list of Top earning Prime Time TV stars during the year-long period (June 2007 – June 2008). Here’s the prime time rich babe list:

1. Tyra Banks, America’s Next Top Model, $23 million

Tyra was working both in front of and behind the camera this year. She’s got her daytime talk show and is producer and judge on the CW’s hit reality competition series. Last fall, she also signed a multi-year deal with Warner Bros. to develop more projects, among them are Stylista, a CW reality show set in the magazine world, and a direct-to-DVD series based on the best-selling Clique series of books for teens.
