It's a combined thing, based on all 4 categories, but gawd knows what the weighting is. Someone can probably work it out, if they're so inclined.

Seconded.

And where is George Clooney? Am I missing his name or what? This is blasphemy.

It's a combined thing, based on all 4 categories, but gawd knows what the weighting is. Someone can probably work it out, if they're so inclined.

I'm fairly sure it's not a combined thing...Brad Pitt is at number 10 but his numbers are all lower than pretty much everyone else. So I'm guessing they just ranked them however they wanted and the rest is just extra information that's not directly relevant to rank.

I would like to see a list that combines these guys, businessmen, and people who actually contribute half decent shit to the world like scientists and humanitarians.

Then I'd like it taught to children in schools worldwide, so perhaps the next generation can have a clue about how out of balance our society is, in terms of remuneration.

Quite a few in that list are humanitarians. Although I do agree- what is being a good actor or sports player really contributing to society?? Why do people care about them??
