NICOLE KIDMAN
Biggest Box Office Gross: “Happy Feet” — $198,000,317
Most Recent Box Office Gross: “Australia” — $49,054,498
Forbes magazine singled out Kidman as being the most overpaid celebrity in Hollywood. With the exception of providing the voice to an animated penguin in “Happy Feet,” she has recently starred in multiple movies that fizzled at the box-office, the most recent being that over-ripe yawn-fest called “Australia.”
EDDIE MURPHY
Biggest Box Office Gross: “Shrek 2″ — $441,226,247
Most Recent Box Office Gross: “Meet Dave” — $11,803,254
Though the “Shrek” franchise made piles of cash, Eddie Murphy’s highest grossing non-animated flick was all the way back during the Reagan administration with “Beverly Hills Cop 2.” Murphy might want to avoid fat suits and high concept movie ideas in the future and instead make something that’s actually funny.
