Nicole Kidman is an acclaimed actress who is a fantastic actress! That said, But why is she No. 1? Nicole has had a string of bombs lately which translates into mega-revenue LOSS which Hollywood studios don't like! Julia Roberts being 2nd makes sense because she only did a couple of 'animated' movies(voice)work last & this year BUT they made over a hundred million dollars each!

I think Reese Witherspoon should be No.1 & Angelina should be No.3 behind Julia!

Reese & Angelina are also acclaimed actress who have a good following all the way to the box office. They both have had misses but Reese is exceptionally good at both comedy & drama! Only Julia does it better. Nicole is awful at comedy. Remember at 'bewitch' or 'step-ford wives' - baaaad! Angelina rocked the blockbuster world with 'Mr & Mrs Smith' - face it she kicked ass.
