If you were wondering who made the most money in Hollywood without truly deserving it - apparently the answer is Nicole Kidman, at least according to Forbes magazine. She was named the most overpaid celebrities in the second annual list of least bankable stars.

Kidman's films were estimated to only earn $1 for every dollar the Oscar-winning actress was paid compared with $8 a year ago.

The article says, "Despite winning an Oscar for her performance in 2002's "The Hours," Kidman has become the most overpaid celebrity in Hollywood."

Second in the list came Jennifer Garner - who acted in 'The Kingdom' and 'Catch and Release', which have both under performed at the box office, earning roughly $3.60 for every $1 she was paid.

Kidman's ex-husband, Tom Cruise, came third in the list with a $4 return for every dollar he was paid, mostly because of the failure of last year's movie "Lions for Lambs."

Here's my opinion - if I was one of these stars, I don't think I'd care too much about the list. After all, they're the ones making the money.
