Julia Roberts may be a wife and mother, but she still brings home the bacon - to the tune of $20 million per movie.

The 38-year-old star tops The Hollywood Reporter's annual list of the highest-paid actresses for the second straight year.

Nicole Kidman is second, with a $16 million to $17 million per-film price tag, followed by "Walk the Line" star Reese Witherspoon and actress-producer Drew Barrymore, who each command $15 million per project.

Renee Zellweger, Angelina Jolie and Cameron Diaz each have a $10 million to $15 million asking price, followed by Jodie Foster ($10 million to $12 million), Charlize Theron ($10 million) and Jennifer Aniston ($9 million).

Can you think of any other actress that should be on the top list? And is Roberts worth 20m?

Is the pot black?

Times change!  I would put Julie Andrews #1.  But then I dont have a billion dollars to spend at the box office!

Ah the real ones!

Or resurrect the Hepburns.

Katherine is the ALL time best!  I never cared for Audrey that much tho.  I did not dislike her, just never really saw her in the same league.

Oh, definitely, Katherine is Number One! But I admire Audrey for her UNICEF tour more than acting.
