Angelina Jolie voted Most Powerful Celebrity In The World

Actress pushes Oprah Winfrey into second place

Angelina Jolie was No 3 in the poll last year

Angelina Jolie is the world’s most powerful celebrity, according to a new poll.

The actress knocked Oprah Winfrey, 55, off the top spot - a position she'd held for two years.

Angelina earned $27million last year, while Oprah made a staggering $275million.

But the amount of press coverage given to the actress, pushed her into the top spot.

Ange, 34, also beat Madonna, 50, and Beyonce Knowles, 27, in the Forbes.com poll.

Brad Pitt’s ex-wife Jennifer Aniston, 40, came in at No 8, earning $25million.
