Net worth: $150 million. Jennifer Aniston has admittedly got one character down pat - the girl with the heart of gold who just wants to find love. She might play such characters ably (although without flair or a degree of panache) but playing it over and over again is a good indication that her acting talents are far from well honed. Like a DJ with only one record in his bag, the tune gets tiresome pretty quickly. After the huge success of the sitcom Friends, in which Aniston starred as Rachel Green, being typecast as the female lead in an endless stream of rom-coms was perhaps inevitable. If it ain't broke, don't fix it, as the saying goes. Aniston did, however, deliver a couple of performances earlier in her cinematic career which hinted a broader range - most notably in Mike Judge's Office Space - but these excursions into "proper" acting were flashes of something different which never amounted to anything of substance. Still, when you're worth over $100 million and have a huge loyal fan base willing to lap up each and every predictable rom-com you churn out, why bother bucking the trend and trying something new?
