Simon Cowell has slipped down the celebrity rich list, after taking in £57 million.
After the X Factor boss's 2011 earnings stayed exactly the same as in 2010, he slid from ninth to tenth place in Forbes' Highest-Paid Celebrities List, the Daily Mail reports.
Oprah Winfrey was the highest paid celebrity - she is estimated to have earned £104 million between May 2011 and May 2012.
She beat Transformers: Dark Of The Moon director Michael Bay, who came second with £101 million.
Third place went to War Horse and The Adventures Of Tintin director Steven Spielberg, who earned £82 million.
Jerry Bruckheimer was in fourth place with £72 million. His 2011 movie Pirates Of The Caribbean: On Stranger Tides grossed over a billion dollars at the global box office, making it the highest-earning film of the series.
Record producer Dr Dre was in fifth place, mostly thanks to his Beats by Dr Dre headphones.
Simon's current UK X Factor has lost viewers compared to last year's series, while his US version did not gain as big an audience as he predicted.
