Their joint income put them at the top spot of the magazine's "World's Highest-Paid Celebrity Couples" list, knocking music's power couple Jay-Z and Beyonce, who earned $72 million over the past year, to the No. 2 spot.

Placing in third are Hollywood stars Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt with earnings of $50 million. Jolie racked in $30 million from her films "Salt" and "The Tourist," while Pitt took home $20 million with the earnings from his Plan B production company. 

David and Victoria Beckham together pocketed $45 million, putting them in fourth, and "Twilight" stars Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson rounded out the top 5 with their combined $40 million salary.

she could pass for a man judging by the picture here. brady is a good football pro player. that aside, don't see anything wrong with them. as for brady and other women, it takes two to tango so not all on him. hope they have a long and happy life together. odds are against it these days with divorce rate so high but they might make it.

She is so ugly. He is such a creep. He got one woman pregnant and left her to marry another. I think they are both losers and they deserve each other. I don't care how much money they have. They both make me want to vomit.

They're not very likeable as a couple ...
