"Despite winning an Oscar for her performance in 2002''s The Hours, Kidman has become the most overpaid celebrity in Hollywood," News.com.au quoted Forbes, as stating. Second in the list came Jennifer Garner, whose movies including ‘The Kingdom"’ and ‘Catch and Release’ have underperformed at the box office.
