Angelina Jolie has been named Forbes most powerful celebrity in the world, knocking chat show Queen Oprah Winfrey from the top spot for the first time.
The actress, who turns 34 today, was named the most famous star on the planet by Forbes senior editor Matthew Miller.
Miller stated: “She is in the dialogue of popular culture nearly every day for her acting, for her relationship with Brad Pitt, for her children and for her philanthropic endeavours.”
In a week where her relationship with Pitt has been under public scrutiny, the news of being the most powerful celebrity must be welcoming news for Ange.
BraNgelina have hit the headlines again after rumours suggested that the superstar couple have split.
The National Enquirer reported yesterday that Brad and Ange had parted ways after four years together.
It reported that the couple, who famously met on the set of film Mr and Mrs Smith had decided on the split with the hope of a possible reconciliation in the future.
The Enquirer alleged that there was to be a battle over custody of the couple’s six children as well as a fight for shares in the duos multi-million pound fortune.
However, a rep for the Hollywood couple has now stated that the rumours are ‘not true’ and the Jolie-Pitts are still going strong.
What a relief, we couldn't take another celebrity break-up!
