'Sex and the City' star Sarah Jessica Parker came joint third in the list. Parker resumed her role as Carrie Bradshaw in the hotly anticipated sequel – but not before asking for a whopping $15m to star in it.

As if that wasn't enough, the mum-of-three joined Hugh Grant to star in 'Did you Hear about the Morgans?' and acquired an additional $8m for the trouble.

And that's not including all the advertising deals, fashion line and perfumes!
