George Clooney made more money last year than any actor across a 12‑month period ‑ thanks in part to the sale of a company he co‑founded.
Forbes estimates the 57‑year‑old star made USD$239M in pre‑tax earnings in the year beginning 1st of June 2017.
That puts him second in its annual list of the world's best‑paid celebrities, a place behind boxer Floyd Mayweather.
Kylie Jenner is placed third in the Celebrity 100 countdown, having made an estimated USD$166.5M last year.
Earlier this month Forbes said the social media star was on track to become "the youngest‑ever self‑made billionaire".
Of the 100 top‑earning celebrities, just 15 were women ‑ down one compared with last year's list.
