    Timberlake is an actor and business owner. Just a little FYI.

    The more you know, the more you grow.

    Also, Maria Sharapova is a Tennis player and not an actress.

    How did the Olsen twins make money in 2008. Full House risedual checks that much?

  • Zeke the Sports Geek said:

    Also Heigl is 30.

    If I was Emma Watson and Rupert Grint I would fire my agent. They may not be Harry Potter but they have basically the same screen time; and neither will make much when the series is over.
