Beyonce and Jay-Z are 'Forbes' Top-Earning Couple

The duo top the list for the second year in a row.

Move over, Brangelina, there’s a bigger powerhouse celebrity coupling. Rapper MC Jay-Z and his multitalented wife, Beyonce, earned the number one spot for the second year in a row atop Forbes magazine’s top-earning Hollywood couples.

US magazine reports between June 2008 and June 2009, the duo earned a combined $122 million, a drop from their profits last year of $162 million. The Mrs. outdid her husband, earning $87 million to his $35 million.

Despite the fall, the Hip-Hop all-stars still ranked high above the rest of the competition. Harrison Ford and Calista Flockhart were second with $69 million, thanks to his turn in the Indiana Jones sequel, and Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie placed third with $55 million.

Rounding out the top five were Will and Jada Pinkett Smith making a combined $48 million, and David and Victoria Beckham earning $46 million.

No wonder those two are so crazy in love.
