Oprah Winfrey headed the TOP-100 of the most influential Forbes celebrities

The famous American TV presenter Winfrey headed the list of 100 most influential celebrities in the Forbes magazine published today after two years, when she was on the second line, Reuters reports.

This is the fifth time when the ex-lender of the talk show, which now controls its television, has the highest line of the rating and it has never left the annual list since 1999. In addition to Winfrey, only the director and producer Stevens Spielberg and television and broadcasting Howard Stern managed this.

Oprah Winfrey has a huge impact in Hollywood and the media, the message says. The Winfrey show program was aired for 25 years and had a significant impact on pop culture in the United States. Since January 1, 2011, the TV presenter launched her own television channel - OWN. According to the magazine, over the past year, Winfrey has earned $ 77 million, which, however, did not allow her to become a celebrity with the highest income. This title was awarded Madonna, which earned 125 million dollars from June 2012 to June 2013.

In second place in the rating made in a promoted rating was the American singer Lady Gaga. Also, the five most influential celebrities include Stephen Spielberg and singer Beyoncé and Madonna. The leader of last year's rating, the singer and actress Jennifer Lopez this time took only the 12th line. In 2011, OPRU Winfrey spent Lady Gaga from the first place.

The rating of the influence of celebrities is calculated on the basis of the number of references in the media, on television, entering the covers of magazines and other similar achievements, as well as the amount earned in the year.
