Ranking The World's 10 Highest-Paid Actresses From Worst To Best

3. Anne Hathaway ($12 Million)

Rank On List: 9 There's something inherently irksome about Anne Hathaway that somehow makes her endlessly interesting; despite the fact that she can be insufferable in real life (remember that insanely jarring Oscar acceptance speech?), people are still drawn to her as an actress. So even though most people would be quick to label her as "annoying," there's never been any question about her talents as a performer. Indeed, the star of The Dark Knight Rises, Les Miserables and Rachel Getting Married is one of the best actresses of her generation, and it's not at all surprising that she comes in as the 9th hight-paid actress in the world. Quite frankly, it might have seemed like a misdemeanour had she failed to make the cut. Her turn in sci-fi flick Interstellar presumably helped her to pocket a lot of cash last year, but despite the somewhat insufferable persona she sometimes projects, it's hard to name another young actress with quite as much gusto, talent and beauty as Anne Hathaway.
