Forbes Magazine has just come out with their annual Celebrity 100 List. Here are the qualifications considered to get
on the list:
With most of our lists we keep it strictly on the money: earnings or net worth. The Celebrity 100 is a little different. This list–which includes film and television actors, TV personalities, models, athletes, authors, musicians and comedians–is based on money and fame. We define fame as media visibility in print, television, radio and online, plus social media power, which we measure by looking at each celebrity’s presence on Facebook and Twitter. The earnings consist of pretax income between May 1, 2011, and May 1, 2012. Management, agent and attorney fees are not deducted. Forbes has been publishing the list annually since 1999.
Kristen Stewart made the list at number 43 and Taylor Launter ranked in at 67.
Given the requirement for a social media presence and that Robert Pattinson and Stephenie Meyer have none, we are wondering if that hurt their ranking. Taylor Lautner launched a Facebook page last year with several million followers and Kristen Stewart (though she has no social media) does many more interviews than Pattinson and Lautner. Similarly author Suzanne Collins of The Hunger Games fame is not there, she also does not do many appearances, so maybe that is the key?
Not rob? And if Kristen is that rich why didnt she buy a better dress for the met gala. And did rob and Kristen break up? I havent scene them together latly
rob didnt make it?
he attended the swath after party. 
I read that the list is due not only to income but to “fame.” Rob made as much money as Taylor, but he did not have a movie out last year other than BD1, whereas Taylor also had Abduction and, therefore, did more press. Rob will likely be back on it this year with Bel Ami, BD2 and Cosmopolis…
Yeah Tay Tay!!!
Sounds like social media is a strong factor. Congrats to the two of them!
What a interesting way to calculate someone’s worth in Hollywood. I like that Kirsten and Taylor are on here good for them.
Hello ,…back AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dawn, RP had a movie out last year, Water for Elephants.
oh she looks so cute <3 <3 and taylor is the most beoutiful man in the world
If she is so rich she should have spent the money on a better dress and a different hairstyle I like her and all but this was a true FAIL
gente q isso???
Uhm Taylor should be hotter actually then all of them. Taylor has been acting since he was young. He is rated one of Americans hottest men he is easier to market there r more female consumers than men and women especially 16-22 r in live with him. ?
