LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- Angelina Jolie & Jennifer Aniston just can't seem to escape each other.

The two stars placed first and second, respectively, on Forbes' list of this year's highest-paid actresses, which charted income from June 2008 to June 2009.

Angelina reportedly earned $27 million in the past year, $2 million more than partner Brad Pitt's ex-wife, Jennifer.

The "Wanted" star took home a share of the profits from the action film, as well as earning an upfront sum from her role in the upcoming spy drama "Salt."

Jen's milllions sprang from the success of "Marley & Me" and a paycheck from her next film, "The Baster," as well as serving as a spokesperson for SmartWater and residuals from "Friends" reruns.

Just under the two intertwined actresses was Meryl Streep, who earned $24 million thanks largely to the box office power of "Mamma Mia," and Sarah Jessica Parker, who earned $23 million on the strength of the big screen debut of "Sex and the City."

In fifth place was Cameron Diaz, who earned $20 million.

    I honestly don't think that there is a feud going on between angie and jen. I love both women and their style of acting. both are unique and great in their own way. But i seriously pray that jen will get a man of her dreams and be happy all her life.maybe she has to look for love in other places rather than in hollywood. I wish you the best of luck jen that's is if you ever get to
