| | |  J.K. Rowling & Dan Radcliffe on Forbes celebrity power list
J.K. Rowling has featured on Forbes' celebrity power list, with the Harry Potter author coming in at 9th place. Dan Radcliffe also featured in the poll at #64. The ranks are established based on earnings and fame. Quote:
It was wizardry that transformed J.K. Rowling from a destitute single mother on welfare into a best-selling billionaire. Her adventures of teenage magician Harry Potter and his classmates at Hogwarts became a children's literary sensation in 1998 with the U.S. publication of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. It and the six subsequent books have now sold 375 million copies worldwide. The final one, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, has sold 44 million since it was published last July, including 15 million in the first 24 hours.
Quote:
Last summer the British-born boy wizard, 18, signed a jaw-dropping contract worth an estimated $50 million to continue his leading role in the last two installments of the Harry Potter series. (The final story, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows, has since split into two movies, meaning even more cash for him.) He also played the title role in the BBC's TV movie My Boy Jack, a World War I story about Rudyard Kipling's ill-fated son, and he'll be baring all on Broadway in Equus.
Jo came in at 19th place in 2006. In 2005 she came 22nd. In 2004 she came 6th. Note: My Boy Jack was actually produced by ITV.  | |

Quote:
for instance Miley Cyrus?! she was like 30-something!
Hannah Montana is huge and she is the main star. Much like Dan. Which means she has lots of money but also loads of fame. Rupert and Emma can't match that. You may not like her, but this isn't about personal preferences. You can't deny her star factor. Quote:
That's great, but didn't Jo say she doesn't even care about power?
She also said Forbes have been wrong about how much money she has  But I think we can all agree that she uses her undeniable power for good | |
