Jennifer Aniston — The $2M Per Episode Queen

Aniston earned $1 million per episode on Friends ($24 million for the final season). Then Apple TV+ paid her $2 million per episode for The Morning Show — $20 million per season for playing a morning TV anchor who is essentially Rachel Green with a news desk. She also earns $10+ million per year from endorsements (Aveeno, SmartWater, Emirates) — more than most actors earn from actual acting. The Friends reunion special alone paid her $2.5 million for one day of sitting on a couch remembering things. Jennifer Aniston has been getting paid to be Jennifer Aniston for 30 years.
