THE WORLD'S HIGHEST-PAID ACTRESSES FOR 2016--JENNIFER LAWRENCE NO. 1



Jennifer Lawrence deserves every dime

THESE MONEY FIGURES ARE SO HIGH THAT I THINK OF IT AS MONOPOLY MONEY. BUT, WE MUST REMEMBER THAT IT IS THE FACES AND WORK OF THESE WOMEN THAT PUT MONEY INTO THE POCKETS OF PRODUCERS AND STUDIOS. AND, THE STUDIOS AND PRODUCERS PROBABLY MAKE MUCH MORE. GO WOMEN POWER!
Jennifer Lawrence is the world's highest-paid actress in 2016 for the second year in a row, followed by Melissa McCarthy, who notched a big gain to claim the runner-up spot, Forbes magazine reported on Tuesday.  Lawrence, the 26-year-old star of The Hunger Games franchise, has earned $46 million before taxes over 12 months, in part from a big upfront fee for the forthcoming movie Passengers, Forbes said. In second place is Melissa McCarthy, who has $33 million in earnings. Scarlett Johansson of Captain America: Civil Wars was third at $25 million, down nearly 30 per cent from 2015. 
 The rest of the 2016 top 10 are: 
 4. Jennifer Aniston - $21 million----(Why?)
 5. Fan Bingbing - $17 million 

What is a Fan Bing Bing, you ask? Well, now you see her. She also has a sister, Li Bing Bing.
How do I know about the Bing Bings???? Beloved Joan Rivers started doing jokes about them on FASHION POLICE.  We used to text each other about the Bing Bing happenings. You know---how many bangs in a Bing? Bing, Bang, Bong. Thins like that. Sigh.......
