It wasn't enough that they have enough money that they can use it to line their doggie beds, they also had to be under 25. This hurts. Among the top 20 are: bad girl Lindsay Lohan and good girl Miley Cyrus, with $3.5 million apiece; Mitovich's imaginary girlfriend, Scarlett Johansson, No. 12 with $5 million; popsters Avril Lavigne and Hilary Duff, $12 million apiece; Daniel "Harry Potter" Radcliffe, No. 6 with $15 million; the Olsen twins, No. 5 with $17 million each; and in the top spot, the clearly overpaid LeBron James, with $27 million. In related news, Mitovich, I want a raise. And Botox. — Ben Katner

I am kind of shocked, though I could really care less, that Lindsay Lohan, after making so many movies, etc. is so low on the list. I think when she finds out how much more money Ms. Duff has, the old tween feud will be back on!

Yes, Lebron is CLEARLY overpaid compared to the rest of the list. He's the only one with actual talent that isn't made in the studio with digital vocals or photoshopped. The guy actually has to work to keep his job, train in the off season and carry a team.

Is this their annual income or their net worth? I would think that LiLo would have more than $3.5M to her name. Its not very clearly written in this news item.

its only what they've earned for the year. . .lindsay lohan only made two movies this year, Georgia Rule and I Know Who Killed me. considering that both of those bombed, id say 3.5 million is a generous amount to pay her

I figured Zac Efron would be on that list too. He did HSM2 and Hairspray, which both did considerably well.

There are plenty of other talented people on that list. And honestly, they are all overpaid. but I've always hated the paychecks sports athletes take home. But oh well, that's the way it works.

Yeah, better that all the money the franchises make should go to the team owners who are so much more talented and do so much more work than the players to bring in all those dollars from tickets and TV licensing fees.
