Amid its Oprah-crowning and Miley-dragging, THR's new Power 100 list of the most powerful women in entertainment yields little turnover and few surprises. But when it does, at least it makes it count. Like naming Katherine Heigl the fifth highest-paid actress in Hollywood? Surprise!

The bracing report places Heigl just below top earner Angelina Jolie and runners-up Julia Roberts, Reese Witherspoon and Cameron Diaz — not a bad showing for a woman only one Judd Apatow blockbuster removed from once starring in the lowest-grossing film in history. Indeed, we knew she had come a long way since her red-carpet shitkicker days, but even $13 million and an Emmy for Grey's Anatomy — where writers privately gab about killing off her character — doesn't seem like it would be enough to knock off the Kidmans, Anistons, or even the Naomi Wattses and Halle Berrys of the world. Fifth? Show your work, THR.
