The “Crazy In Love” hitmaker and her hip-hop mogul husband have topped a poll of Hollywood’s highest-earning couples compiled by “Forbes” magazine, with combined earnings of $122 million between June 2008 and June 2009.
Their total income was almost double that of runners-up Harrison Ford and Calista Flockhart, whose $69 million would have mostly come courtesy of the actor’s $65 million pay cheque for “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull”.
Pitt and Jolie graced the third place in the list with a total earning of $55 million.
“Hitch” star Will Smith and his wife Jada Pinkett Smith came at number four with $48 million, and the former Spice Girl Victoria and her soccer ace husband David Beckham took the fifth place with $46 million.
Despite splurging on their three-year-old daughter Suri’s clothes and toys, actors Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes’ total earnings were a meagre $33.5 million which put them in the ninth slot.
