Forbes magazine has just released their annual list of the world's most powerful celebrities. The top ten are:
1. Angelina Jolie2. Oprah Winfrey
3. Madonna
4. Beyoncé Knowles
5. Tiger Woods
6. Bruce Springsteen
7. Steven Spielberg
8. Jennifer Aniston
9. Brad Pitt
10. Kobe Bryant
Three and one half out of ten (if you count Tiger Woods' black side -- he considers himself biracial, not me). Not bad for a group of people that comes from nothing and continually faces brutality from various sectors of society to this day. See the full story at Forbes.com.

I think that this list does give black people the incentive to aim higher only if they would go to school and use this to thier advantage

These people like Beyonce and Oprah, well Beyonce we never ever hear of her do anything productive with her money such as giving under prevlige kids anything or starting a fund for helping better other people! All you hear is the new Multi Million Dollar Louis Voitton bag she purchase and the 75,000 watches her dude Jay-Z has why not live a simple life and invest in someone other then yourself and not be selfish!!!!!! They all will never in this life time be able to spend most of the money that they have but who am I????? To question that when we all will still continue to make them all rich!!!!!!!!!!!
